. The TPIC6595DWR from Texas Instruments is an 8-bit shift register with counters and shift register features. It is a type of digital logic integrated circuit (IC). This device consists of a 8-bit register and 4 cascaded 4-bit counters. It has built-in parallel loads that allow data to be simultaneously loaded into the register, along with the counters. It also features a data latch and 8 outputs that can be used to latch data and provide real-time data output. This device is primarily used for counting or clocking applications, such as real-time clocks or oscillator circuits, and can be used in discrete or multiplexed data transmission systems. Other applications include counters, time-delay generators, and feedback control systems. Finally, this IC is available in a standard 16-pin dual-in-line (DIP) package.
