    Smart IC Tester PDF

    Uploaded by

    hexapodo2
    This document describes how to build a smart IC tester using an Arduino Mega and a touchscreen LCD. The IC tester can detect and test ICs by sending input pulses according to their truth tables and comparing the results to the IC's logic table. The design uses a shield that fits an Arduino Mega and touchscreen LCD to provide a compact, portable device. Code is uploaded to the Arduino to control the IC testing process and display results on the touchscreen. An IC database is also created to store test cases for common ICs.

    Smart IC Tester

    by baweja_akshay

    We all know what IC Testers do... but for those who check the connected IC along with a manual mode.
    don't - IC Testers are devices which are used to test Our IC Tester features a Touch LCD which gives a
    Integrated Circuits by sending in Pulses as per their better user experience and easy to understand UI.
    Truth Table. Generally, IC number is fed into IC
    Tester and a comparison test is made against that IC Testers maybe costly instrumentation devices but
    particular IC's Logic Table. this one is just under 1600( ~$25), pretty cheap right
    ?
    A smart IC tester is far more capable and better than
    a generic IC Tester, it has an ability to detect and

    Step 1: Let's Shop Some Stuff !!

    Electronics

    1x Arduino Mega 2560


    1x 20 Pin ZIF Socket
    1x 2.4 inch TFT touch Screen LCD with inbuilt SD Card Slot
    1x 4GB MicroSDHC
    1x 6-pin Extra Length Female Header
    3x 8-pin Extra Length Female Header
    1x Male Header Strip
    2x WS2812B (Optional)
    2x 100 nF 0805 Capacitor (Optional)
    1x 180 0805 Resistor (Optional)

    Tools and Additional Supplies

    Soldering Iron
    Solder
    A Laptop
    USB Cable to connect Arduino Mega 2560
    MicroSDHC Adapter

    Step 2: Designing the PCB

    I designed a shield for all components to fit-in and A big shoutout to guys at JLC PCB for sponsoring
    chose the Arduino Mega as my micro-controller board PCBs for the project. Do check them out they offer $2
    since both the ZIF Socket and LCD can be put side PCB Prototyping and Free Shipping on First Order.
    by side giving the build a compact and portable look
    and feel. I used Autodesk Eagle for the PCB
    Designing part (I've attached the eagle files below).

    …

    Step 3: Shut Up and Solder

    Once you have all the components along with the PCB, just solder them in place as shown and you are ready to
    go !!

    Once you're done with soldering put-on the LCD Shield and Female Headers and this completes your assembly
    for IC Tester.

    Remember - "If it smells like chicken, you're doing it wrong" ;)

    Smart IC Tester: Page 3


    Step 4: Code? Yes..!!

    Open up your Arduino IDEs and Open up the code... You can replace my name with your own so it boots up with
    your name. You're free to play around with colour schemes as per your choice.

    All code files are available on GITHUB

    Step 5: Preparing Database... a Time Consuming Task

    I've compiled up a basic database for Component [Test Case 2]


    Tester that includes basic ICs. The database is in
    database.txt file on GitHub. Copy this txt file on SD ...
    Card and insert it in the Touch LCD Shield.
    [Test Case N]
    Thanks to instructable user JorBi for his Instructable -
    Arduino IC Tester from where I got inspiration to build Sample Test Case-
    one.
    Say I have IC-7426, a sample test case would be
    Pattern -
    0000HHG000000V
    $[IC Number]
    Here 0/1 would be used to specify Input and H/L
    [IC Name] (High/Low) to specify output and V is used to denote
    VCC and G is used to denote Ground. Follow order
    [Pins] from Pin 1, 2, 3, ..... 7, 8, 9, .... 14 for above IC

    [Test Case 1]

    1. IC Database 1. IC Number
    2. Number of Pins
    3. Name of IC
    4. Test Cases
    G - GND
    V - VCC
    1 - HIGH INPUT
    0 - LOW INPUT
    H - HIGH OUTPUT
    L - LOW OUTPUT

    Step 6: Fingers Crossed !! Testing It All Together

    Let's Upload the code and boot the IC Tester.

    FINGERS CROSSED !!

    And it worked great !!

    Step 7: Happy Testing !!

    You are welcome to contribute to the project and database on GitHub.

    nice proyect congrats¡¡

    Thanks :)

    Great instructable thanks!

    I'm glad you liked it :)

    I have ordered five pcb and only need one, email me if you are interested.they will be at my cost
    plus postage to you ( I am in Australia)

    Great project could you please upload the gerber files

    Uploaded files :)

    Very good work! That is impressive!

    Thanks

    Nice project. It really wants to make one but I have a few questions first
    Can you give more information about the touchscreen. The size, type or even a link to it?
    Does the screen also includes a SD slot because I see it's missing in the parts list

    I've updated the touch screen details
