Today, we learn about IC chips, and put one on a breadboard with an Arduino to test it out!

Last time when we looked at Logic Components, we understood how components like logic gates, latches and flip flops worked. However, those are pretty abstract, and don't tell us much about what actually gets placed on a circuit board.

Today, we have with us a 74HC595N Shift Register, and we use it to try and understand the fundamentals of integrated circuits!
