Hi all,
My reacquaintance with Nixie's is progressing well and I'm looking at
experimenting with driving them via a Raspberry Pi. I know this is complete
overkill but it makes for a nice experimentation platform and I'm comfortable
with Python (so eases the learning curve!).
With this in mind and given the Pi's low GPIO pin count, I want to experiment
with shift registers and I believe that the 74HCT595 is suitable for driving
via from the Pi's 3.3v logic. However, I'm having difficulty finding this chip
in a DIP package.
Does anyone know of a source of these shift registers in DIP form (or indeed
any equivalents)?
Many thanks
Matt
I have used the HC part many times with CMOS uC's and never had a
problem. I am never doing super high speed though. Just one data point,
YMMV.
