#181907 - '595 Chip /OE
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The initial pulled up /OE will tristate the shift register outputs.

Secondly when the /OE is eventually pulled low the '595 is able to drive to the ULN part with a push-pull driver and can easily put the ULN input to high orlow level.

So instead of having pullups on the outputs of the '595 why don't you instead provide forpull-down resistors which would force the ULN off whenever the '595 is tristated.

The pull-down , if kept to a reasonable resistance should not represent a problem for the active outputs of the '595 when it has to source current to turn on the ULN.

Simple electronics this issue.
