Description

Shifter Kit v1.1 - Powered Shift Register


The Shifter Kit uses an 8-bit monolithic, high-voltage, medium-current power 8-bit shift register that is designed for use in systems that require relatively high load power. The TPIC6B595 contains a built-in voltage clamp on the outputs for inductive transient protection.
The kit contains a filter capacitor, Shift Register, Break Away Headers, and PCB.
Each channel can sink 150mA continuous, 500mA peak, and no matter how many you cascade, you'll only require 3 i/o pins.
This board is perfect for driving our 7-Segment Red 6.5" Displays.   Please note that the datasheet below shows 1K load resistors, we have found that using 1M resistors stops any non-lit segments from showing a slight glow from the segment.

    Any reason the output enable pin on the chip is not exposed on the board?

    There is a datasheet which includes schematics showing you how to wire this kit up to an Arduino or any other MCU. There is also example Arduino code and a library written to help newcomers.

    is there a tutorial available on how to actually use this board? i.e. how to actually wire it up to the arduino and get it functioning?
