FIRMWARE SIGNATURE ANALYSIS-ADDRESSABLE LATCHES
I.
Purpose
To troubleshoot the three addressable latches. Use this test to check the following ICs and their
functions.
A. Dim and relay latch-U1315
B.
Serial output and partial display latch-U1411
C. Blink control latch-U1314
II.
Equipment required
A. Tektronix SA 501 Signature Analyzer (or equivalent)
B.
Two TM 500 Flexible Extenders, Tektronix Part Number 067-0645-02
C. 16-pin DIP clip, Tektronix Part Number 003-0709-00 or equivalent
Ill.
Electrical conditions necessary to perform tests
A. CPU, RAM, ROM data, and address lines functional (verified by power-up self test).
B.
Startlstop test point (TP1401) functional. Check for pulses approximately 5.5 ms apart (low
true).
C. U1220, pin
6,
clock signal functional. Check for approximately a 1 MHz toggle.
IV.
Setup
A. PS 501 0 (on extenders)
1. Set GPlB address switch S1221 to ID 22.
Press
2. Set mode jumper (J132O) as shown.

Measurements
Verify setup by taking +5 V and start signatures. Take measurements directly on U13l4, UW 5,
and U1411. If the chip enable signals are bad (pin 14), check U1310 (address decoder).
