It turned out to be a super-common chip that I was just blanking on, an 74HCS595: 8-bit shift buffer.

Which makes me suspicious. I'm not sure that the fuck they're doing with that and why they'd need it.

@foone probably for the row strobes, 595s are good for when you don’t have enough output pins (eg i use em for talking to stepper motor drivers in cnc machines). Able to be driven by the SPI unit in a microcontroller.
