Logic Device Notation Example
8-67.
The various logic symbols are combined to represent more complex devices that perform more difficult
functions. The control block symbol can simplify understanding of many complex devices. An example of such a
device
is
given here. This example is typical of the symbols used in the schematic diagrams in this manual.
This device is used as an interface between an external controller and the
HP-IB
microcomputer on the
Data Bus.
In
this example,
GI
controls both
EN2
and
EN3.
The logic level on pin
11
determines whether data is trans-
mitted or received.
With a LOW at
G1
(pin
9),
the device is enabled for operation.
A
HIGH
at pin
11
sets the device into the
transmit mode and the data on the left-side inputs
will
pass to the right-side outputs.
A
LOW
at pin
11
sets the device into the receive mode and the data on the right-side inputs will pass to the
left-side outputs.
A
HIGH
at
G1
disables the device (by driving all inputs and outputs to a high impedance state) preventing
any
data transfer.
