5. 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.
Loop - execute test repeatedly, regardless of the result.
P Loop - execute test repeatedly, provided the result was PASS.
F Loop - execute test repeatedly, provided the result was FAIL.
Search - identify the number of the IC in the socket.
Diags - execute the diagnostic self-test.
CmLink - enter remote mode for CompactLink software.
Sw Off
- turn off the unit.
6. entering test numbers
Press the MODE/CLEAR key until the desired test mode is displayed.
Enter the number of the IC you wish to test.
Pressing the
MODE/CLEAR key will clear the last digit from the display if a
mistake is made.
Note: The NUMERIC information only is entered, leav ing out the
manufacturers prefixes and suffixes and IC family information.
As an example, all the follow ing TTL ICs should be entered as 7,
4, 0, 0 on the keypad:
e.g. DM74LS00J, N74LS00N, N74S00N, N7400N, 74ALS00N,
SN74HCT00
A very small number of ICs have differing pin-outs for different IC
families - in these cases, the most popular pin-out only is supported.
The CMOS 4000 series is also supported and the IC numbers for this
family should all begin with "4", so that with for example Motorola
ICs beginning MC14... the initial "1" should be omitted. The same
principles apply also to memory ICs, which are mostly four digit
numbers.
With interface ICs of the 8T series the "T" should be
omitted. A complete list of all ICs supported by the B & K Model
575A is contained in the IC SUPPORT LIST at the end of this
