BiMOS II 8-BIT SERIAL-INPUT,
LATCHED DRIVERS
A merged combination of bipolar and MOS technology gives
these devices an interface flexibility beyond the reach of standard
logic buffers and power driver arrays. The UCN5821A and
UCN5821LW each have an eight-bit CMOS shift register and
CMOS control circuitry, eight CMOS data latches, and eight
bipolar current-sinking Darlington output drivers.
BiMOS II devices have much higher data-input rates than the
original BiMOS circuits. With a 5 V logic supply, they will
typically operate at better than 5 MHz. With a 12 V supply,
significantly higher speeds are obtained. The CMOS inputs are
compatible with standard CMOS and NMOS logic levels. TTL
circuits may require the use of appropriate pull-up resistors. By
using the serial data output, the drivers can be cascaded for
interface applications requiring additional drive lines.
The UCN5821A are furnished in a standard 16-pin plastic
DIP; the UCN5821LW are in a 16-lead wide-body SOIC for sur-
face-mount applications. The UCN5821A is also available for
operation from -40°C to +85°C. To order, change the prefix from
‘UCN’ to ‘UCQ’.

8-BIT SERIAL-INPUT,
LATCHED DRIVERS
Serial Data present at the input is
transferred to the shift register on the
logic “0” to logic “1” transition of the
CLOCK input pulse. On succeeding
CLOCK pulses, the registers shift data
information towards the SERIAL DATA
OUTPUT. The SERIAL DATA must
appear at the input prior to the rising edge
of the CLOCK input waveform.

Information present at any register is
transferred to its respective latch when the
STROBE is high (serial-to-parallel con-
version). The latches will continue to
accept new data as long as the STROBE
is held high. Applications where the
latches are bypassed (STROBE tied high)
will require that the ENABLE input be
high during serial data entry.
When the ENABLE input is high, all
of the output buffers are disabled (OFF)
without affecting the information stored
in the latches or shift register. With the
ENABLE input low, the outputs are
controlled by the state of the latches.
