LAB 1

Verify truth table for NAND, XOR, and INVERT gates by hooking up TTL ICs to the breadboard.

The 74LS00, 74LS86, 74LS04 data sheets can be found within the "Data Sheets" link on the circuits tab
Hook up only the first gate of the chip being tested. The inputs should go to toggle switches at the bottom of the ETS-7000, while the output should go to one of the LEDs to the right

Check continuity between the VIA port lines and the Analog/Digital Trainer using the DMM (Digital Multi-Meter). Plug grounding wire into the ground socket of the trainer board. MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE AIM 65 IS NOT PLUGGED IN WHEN YOU DO THIS!!!

Video introducing the AIM 65 can be found here.
The terminal program can be found in the Desktop folder "\MAE412\Terminal\AIM65.trm" or use desktop shortcut.
Ensure that COM port cable is attached to the AIM 65 from the desktop computer.
Power on your AIM 65 using the timer.
Ensure that switches at the bottom left corner of the AIM 65 are set to 'Run' and 'TTY'.
Press Reset button on the AIM 65.
Press DELETE key in terminal program.
The terminal should display the title "ROCKWELL AIM 65" indicating that the terminal program is now connected and communicating properly.
An instruction set for the AIM 65 can be found on the bottom of the text page.

Run program. To test the program, apply a logic signal to port Ax and check that the logic signal appears at port Bx -- (where x is 0,1,2,...,7)
Determine minimum and maximum time delay using the TTL mode of the function generator as input to the AIM 65. Oscilloscope channel 1 monitors the input and channel 2 monitors the computer output. Think about why this variation can occur.
Instructions for measuring time delays using the oscilloscope can be found here.
