74hc165?
I know you can use the 74hc165 to receive an 8-bit number from up
to 8 different high/low inputs. I wanted to know if you could also
output with a 74hc165. Could I send and 8-bit number from my stamp
to then set the high/low status of those 8 pins on the IC?
If anyone has any code they could provide my with regarding
sending or receiving data from the 74hc165 it would be a big help. I
would also love a short description on how to wire the IC.
Thank You!!!

The x165 is a parallel-in, serial-out (to Stamp) shift register. This means
you can use it for inputs, but not outputs. You can use the 74hc595 for
outputs. It's also very easy to use.
In the June issue of Nuts & Volts magazine, my Stamp Applications column
shows how to use both. The x165 to read a keypad and the x595 to output data
to a character LCD. The article includes schematics and BS2 code.
