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