CD4094 ek CMOS 8-stage shift register with output latches IC hai jo serial-in aur parallel-out data handling ke liye use hota hai. Iska kaam ye hota hai ke data ko serial form mein input liya jata hai aur phir usay parallel outputs ke zariye multiple devices (jaise LEDs, displays ya relays) drive karne ke liye provide kiya jata hai. Ye IC data ko shift karke ek internal latch mein store karta hai aur stable parallel outputs deta hai, jisse microcontrollers ya Arduino ke sath use karke output pins ko barhaya ja sakta hai. CD4094 mein 8-bit shift register, ek output latch register aur serial output pin hoti hai jisse multiple ICs ko cascade karke unlimited outputs banaye ja sakte hain. Clock pulses ke zariye data shift hota hai aur strobe pin ke zariye latch activate hota hai. Iske outputs high current sink/source kar sakte hain jo directly LEDs drive karne ke liye kaafi hote hain. Ye IC zyada tar LED/LCD display drivers, keypads, multiplexed displays, serial-to-parallel conversion, aur digital control systems mein use hota hai. Iska supply voltage range 3V–15V hai aur ye low power CMOS technology par based hai.
