Multisim: 8-Bit Parallel-In/Serial-Out (74ls166)

[N468989]

Hi,

i am trying to connect the IC 74LS166 (Parallel in / Serial out) to my design, but i´m having trouble connecting this component, if anyone knows how this is done or any idea i would appreciate it.

i have the parallel intput from a 74LS374 which has 8 D-type flip-flops, basically i just need help connecting the control pins


thanks in advance

If all the LS374 is doing is feeding the LS166 then you probably don't need it.
The 166 will latch 8 bits of data when you drive the load pin low.
The only other thing you need is a clock pulse to shift the data to the output port.
Of course you do need to wait until all the data is written out before doing another load.

thank you very much, that´s the info i needed;)
