Working Principles

SN74HC595N operates by receiving serial data from a microcontroller through the SER pin. The data is then sequentially shifted through the shift register upon each rising edge of the SRCLK input. The RCLK input latches the shifted data to the output pins, allowing simultaneous control of multiple outputs. The OE input enables or disables the output state, while the SRCLR input clears the shift register when necessary.
