One of the most common uses of a shift register is to convert between serial and parallel interfaces. Shift registers can be used also as pulse extenders. For -phase clock generation, a SR also functions as a divide-by- and requires a voltage-controlled oscillator with times higher frequency. shift registers can also be used to handle data processing

Shift Register is a series of flip-flops, sharing the same clock, which gives output of any one but the last flip-flop connected to the "data" input of the next one in the chain, resulting in a circuit that shifts by one position the one-dimensional bit array stored in it, shifting in the data present at its input and shifting out the last bit in the array.

It transfers the data in four ways.

SISO- Serial in -Serial out

SIPO- Serial in-Parallel out

PISO- Parrallel in- Serial out

PIPO- Parallel in - Parallel out

Applications of shift register?

shift registers can be used in CDMA(code division multiple access) in communication.


Why shift register are considered basic memory devices?

Shift registers contain multiple "flip flops" that can be set to represent a bit value (0 or 1). These values can be retrieved later and so the registers can function as memory.


Various flip-flops and there applications?

Mostly used in counters and shift registers.

Define simply type of shift register?

There are several types of shift registers: PISO: parallel-in serial-out shift registers such as the 7495(?), 74HC165, 74HC166 serial parallel counter load a one and shift it out serially bingo sequential pulses SIPO: serial-in parallel-out shift registers such as the 74HC595, 74HC4094, TPIC6595, TLC5925. Typically data is shifted into the register one bit at a time through "the" input pin. Most "POV clocks" and "POV displays" use such chips to drive the spinning LEDs. Most such chips can be wired up to "shift left", or they can be wired up to "shift right", but once wired up can only do one or the other. bidirectional SIPO: bidirectional serial-in parallel-out shift registers. Once wired up, an external control line can dynamically switch it from "shift left" -- feeding in a new bit on the "least significant bit input pin" -- and at some other time it can "shift right" -- feeding in a new bit on the "most significant bit input pin". "universal" shift registers, such as the 74AC299, can do any of the above (at different times): output the current state of the register in parallel, shift left, shift right, and load the new state of the register in parallel.
