hi,

With the serial shift registers you can cacade them, means connect the output from the former to the input of the next, and result with only three lines, "latch", "data" and "clock".
I have nothing against shift registers nevertheless there are some "thin things" people do not take attention on sometimes. First of all, shift registers require clean and strong (read: not slew and not bouncing) clock signal as well as correct timed tracing clock signal to all registers at the same time (inded, this relatives to the clock frequency, till you do not use phase-inverted clock of last-bit shift ones). Another hidden contro is that if your peripheral is placed around of PCB (for example, 4 relays` group at one side and others - at another side) so your data shift line should cross around PCB what is not good due both noice and long trace handwork). Once again: no problem to use but question of requirements. Dependend. Regards, Oleg |
