#118541 - 74HC595 Responding to: ???'s previous message |
For instance the 74HC595, which is an 8bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register with output latch. This chip could also directly drive your traffic LEDs. Really ? The ST or Toshiba or TI manufactured 74HC595s datasheet's doesn't say more than +/-6mA capability. I was blaming myself since I have designed a pcb where 4 of this chips where used to work at +/-20mA , So are you saying that we can easily push this chip near to it's absolute maximum rating ?
