Overview

Product Description

The Shift Register Board is a simple kit that lets you get soldering experience while also learning about the 4015 shift register. Instead of having two independent shift registers, the 4015 combines them into a single 8-bit shift register, thus demonstrating how shift registers can be chained together.

The board also integrates buttons for each control input, so that they can be independently tested, and each output of both shift registers has been connected to its own LED in a row, so you can see how data is shifted across. Furthermore, to prevent multiple clock pulses when pushing the clock button, a de-bounce circuit has been included, which ignores sudden multiple presses of the clock button.

Finally, all the input and outputs are passed through to two expander pads on the side of the PCB, allowing for future expansion with other logic boards.

Applications

  • The 4015 Shift Register kit is an ideal teaching tool for learning how shift registers work, connecting them together, and challenges faced with clock skew. As the kit requires assembly, the 4015 Shift Register kit is also suitable for solder practice, giving students two opportunities for education in a single kit. Pin contacts on the side of the board allow for further expansion with other circuits, thus enabling for more complex projects, and the inbuilt issue with clock skew gives students the possibility of fixing the kit so that it functions correctly.
  • Education and training – Useful for teaching shift registers, serial data and clocked logic, while providing practical experience with through-hole soldering, component identification and PCB assembly.
  • Project integration – Suitable for projects such as Serial Data Visualiser, LED Pattern Sequencer, Shift-Register Chain Experiment, and other designs where the following function is useful: Eight-bit shift-register demonstrator using the dual 4-bit 4015 with visible LED outputs and manual clocking
