12.6 Ring Counters
If the output of a shift register is fed back to the input. a ring counter results. The data pattern contained within the shift register will recirculate as long as clock pulses are applied. For example, the data pattern will repeat every four clock pulses in the figure below. However, we must load a data…

12.5 Universal Shift Registers: Parallel-in, Parallel-out
The purpose of the parallel-in/ parallel-out shift register is to take in parallel data, shift it, then output it as shown below. A universal shift register is a do-everything device in addition to the parallel-in/ parallel-out function. Above we apply four bit of data to a parallel-in/ parallel-out shift register at DA DB DC DD.…

12.4 Shift Registers: Serial-in, Parallel-out (SIPO) Conversion
A serial-in, parallel-out shift register is similar to the serial-in, serial-out shift register in that it shifts data into internal storage elements and shifts data out at the serial-out, data-out, pin. It is different in that it makes all the internal stages available as outputs. Therefore, a serial-in, parallel-out shift register converts data from serial…

12.3 Shift Registers: Parallel-in, Serial-out (PISO) Conversion
Parallel-in/ serial-out shift registers do everything that the previous serial-in/ serial-out shift registers do plus input data to all stages simultaneously. The parallel-in/ serial-out shift register stores data, shifts it on a clock by clock basis, and delays it by the number of stages times the clock period. In addition, parallel-in/ serial-out really means that…

12.2 Shift Registers: Serial-in, Serial-out
Serial-in, serial-out shift registers delay data by one clock time for each stage. They will store a bit of data for each register. A serial-in, serial-out shift register may be one to 64 bits in length, longer if registers or packages are cascaded. Below is a single stage shift register receiving data which is not…

12.1 Introduction to Shift Registers
Shift registers, like counters, are a form of sequential logic. Sequential logic, unlike combinational logic is not only affected by the present inputs, but also, by the prior history. In other words, sequential logic remembers past events. Shift registers produce a discrete delay of a digital signal or waveform. A waveform synchronized to a clock,…
