age caused by careless or incorrect wiring of a test circuit. Once a<br />

circuit has been completely tested and debugged, you can probably<br />

connect it directly to the data bus of the Apple without any problem.<br />

The breadboard circuits may be constructed using wire-wrap techniques,<br />

as shown in Fig. 5-9. In this case, the circuits could be expanded<br />

and modified through simple wiring changes, but the breadboard<br />

itself would be somewhat difficult to use.<br />

To aid in interface construction and testing, a printed circuit has<br />

been developed in which all of the necessary circuitry has been<br />

placed on a single board. The power supply and logic probe circuitry<br />

have been incorporated to make the breadboard easy to use. The<br />

breadboard is shown in Fig. 5-10, and is available in kit or assembled<br />

form from Group Technology, P.O. Box 87B, Check, VA 24072. A<br />

large space has been left unused on the breadboard so that a solderless<br />

breadboard socket may be mounted directly on the printed-circuit<br />

board for easy experimentation. Typical breadboard sockets are<br />

the "SK-10" from E & L Instruments, Derby CT 06418 and the "Super<br />

Strip" from AP Products, Inc., Mentor, OH 44000. A complete list of<br />

parts needed for the breadboard, along with the printed-circuit board<br />

artwork is provided in the Appendix.<br />

Since the interface breadboard uses a 40-conductor cable to connect<br />

to various computers, you will need a means of connecting the
