    DC input The B & K Model 575A is powered by four AA batteries or by the use of the battery eliminator input at the rear of the case. To insert the batteries, turn the unit upside down and remove the battery Copyright ...
  • Page 6: Battery Eliminator

    An external battery eliminator is available for prolonged use of the B & K Model 575A. Many bipolar LSI ICs consume a large amount of current when powered up, and battery life can be conserved by using the eliminator. There is no need to remove the batteries prior to inserting the battery eliminator.

    - the display will be as follows: MODE:Single:RDY When this initial display is obtained the B & K Model 575A is ready for use. If, however, the message SELF-TEST FAIL: is displayed along with a fault message, this indicates that a self-test diagnostic fault has been detected.
  • Page 8: Operating Modes

    Model 575A Digital IC Tester operating modes The B & K Model 575A has a number of test modes that are selected using the MODE/CLEAR key from the initial screen. The test modes are as follows: Single - execute a single test on the IC in the socket.

    Model 575A Digital IC Tester manual together with notes on any special requirements for certain ICs. Note that if you have stored a user library using CompactLink, an IC in the user library with the same number as one in the internal library will take precedence.
  • Page 10: Test Results

    Model 575A Digital IC Tester test results A pre-determined sequence of signals is applied to the inputs of the IC and the IC outputs are monitored for the correct logic levels. The unit uses TTL or CMOS logic thresholds (depending on the selected IC) when evaluating the response of the IC outputs.

    Model 575A Digital IC Tester In the case of a FAIL result, the error conditions at all the non- functional pins of the IC will be scrolled on the display, and the IC function will be shown. The various failure conditions that can be displayed are as follows: - the output was LOW when HIGH was expected.
  • Page 12: Continuous Testing

    F Loop - execute a test repeatedly, provided the result was FAIL. The B & K Model 575A is configured into one of the loop modes using the MODE/CLEAR key as described earlier. Insert the IC and press TEST/EXEC in the usual way to start the continuous test process.

    Model 575A Digital IC Tester 15.6. notes on TTL ICs Note 1: The 7450 and 7453 ICs have non-TTL compatible expander inputs that are often not used in designs. These inputs are not tested. Note 2: The 74LS51 and 74LS54 have differing pin connections and functions from the standard 7451 and 7454 ICs.
  • Page 23 Model 575A Digital IC Tester Note 6: The ROM/EPROM tests perform a blank check and checksum on the IC, and display the contents of the first 16 locations. These tests cannot confirm the integrity of an IC, or identify it in SEARCH mode, since they have no knowledge of the intended contents of the EPROM.
