Integrated Circuits Tester Design for Logic Circuit Laboratories

Abstract

Logic circuit laboratory is one of the important laboratories for Electrical-Electronics Engineering department. The Integrated Circuits (ICs) must work correctly during the experiments. It is difficult and time-consuming to set up a circuit to test whether the ICs are working correctly or not. In this work, the ICs tester was designed to test the ICs quickly and correctly. In the ICs tester, the PIC18F452 microcontroller produced by Microchip was used to perform the control and test algorithms. The PIC18F452 has low power consumption, high performance and improved FLASH/EEPROM technology. Using ICs tester is easy and simple. It is enough to just insert ICs into the zif-socket. The tester shows on the LCD screen whether the ICs are working correctly or not. The prototype of the ICs tester was produced and used in the logic circuit laboratory. Experiments and comments from laboratory personnel show that the ICs tester can be used safely in laboratories.
