Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CD74ACT164M96G4 is determined by strict parameter matching across the following critical criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Logic Type: Shift Register
• Number of Elements: 1
• Number of Bits per Element: 8
• Function: Serial to Parallel
• Output Type: Push-Pull
• Voltage - Supply: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Operating Temperature: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Package / Case: 14-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

All identified substitute parts meet these electrical and mechanical requirements. Substitutes are grouped by manufacturer recommendation status and logic series designation (74ACT versus 74HCT).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CD74ACT164M96 directly replace the CD74ACT164M96G4?

A: Yes. The CD74ACT164M96 is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, package configuration (14-SOIC), supply voltage range (4.5V ~ 5.5V), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1).

Q: What is the difference between the 74ACT and 74HCT series substitutes?

A: Both series are shift register logic families that meet the same electrical and mechanical parameters for this application. The series designation reflects different logic family implementations. All identified substitutes maintain the required 8-bit serial-to-parallel conversion function, push-pull output type, and identical package configuration.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: The CD74ACT164M96 and CD74HCT164M96 are available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging. The CD74HCT164MT is available in Bulk packaging. All three parts use the same 14-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount package.

Q: Do all substitutes meet RoHS compliance requirements?

A: The CD74ACT164M96 and CD74HCT164M96 are both ROHS3 compliant. The CD74HCT164MT does not specify RoHS status in the provided data.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: The CD74ACT164M96 and CD74HCT164M96 both have MSL 1 (Unlimited). The CD74HCT164MT does not specify MSL in the provided data.
