Overview
The TPIC6B595 device, produced by Texas Instruments, is a monolithic, high-voltage, medium-current power 8-bit shift register. It is designed for use in systems that require relatively high load power, such as those involving relays, solenoids, and other medium current or high-voltage loads. The device features an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register that feeds an 8-bit D-type storage register, providing inductive transient protection through built-in voltage clamps on the outputs.
