The 74HC595 Shift Register is an ideal IC for driving LED Dot Matrix arrays or for increasing the number of outputs on your Arduino or PIC Microcontroller.
The HC595 devices contain an 8-bit serial-in, parallel-out shift register that feeds an 8-bit D-type storage register. The storage register has parallel 3-state outputs. Separate clocks are provided for both the shift and storage register. The shift register has a direct overriding clear (SRCLR) input, serial (SER) input, and serial outputs for cascading. When the output-enable (OE) input is high, the outputs are in the high-impedance state. Both the shift register clock (SRCLK) and storage register clock (RCLK) are positive-edge triggered. If both clocks are connected together, the shift register always is one clock pulse ahead of the storage register.
I can provide Arduino code and breadboard diagrams for using these with LED's or Dot Matrix Units upon request.
