Model 570A Linear IC Tester 1. introduction Thank you for purchasing the B & K Precision Model 570A Hand Held Linear IC Tester. The basic function of the B & K Model 570A Linear IC Tester is to test a linear IC for correct logical functioning as described in the manufacturer’s IC data sheets. The B & K Model 570A applies the necessary analogue signals to the inputs of the IC, monitoring the outputs at each stage and comparing them with the expected voltages.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester cover by removing the two cross head screws holding it in place. The batteries must be inserted in the correct orientation, as indicated by the drawing within the battery compartment. Incorrect insertion of batteries will not allow the unit to operate. Replace the battery cover and insert the screws. If the battery voltage falls too low, a low battery warning symbol will be displayed at the top left hand cell of the display in normal operating mode.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester When this initial display is obtained the B & K Model 570A is ready for use. If, however, the message SELF-TEST FAIL: is displayed along with a fault message, this indicates that a self-test diagnostic fault has been detected. Any detected faults will be displayed one at a time. Pressing the TEST/EXEC key will then revert to the opening menu as above, but of course operation of the unit will then be suspect.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester Some ICs are available in different pin outs or package types, and also there may be several different types of IC with the same numerical part number. In these cases the B & K Model 570A will automatically determine which test to perform. If however the IC is faulty the unit may not be able to determine the correct IC type - if this happens a warning message will be displayed.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester making good contact. Press the TEST/EXEC key to activate the test sequence for the IC. If an invalid IC type number was entered, or if the IC you have requested is not supported the message "Unknown" will be displayed. Simply entering another IC type number will automatically clear this error message. If a valid type number was entered, the IC test will begin and the message "BUSY" will be displayed while the test proceeds.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester manual for details of the component(s) required. After fitting the component the test can be carried out by a further press of the TEST key. If you wish you can abandon the test by pressing the CLEAR key. In the case of a FAIL result, the error conditions at all the nonfunctional pins of the IC will be scrolled on the display, and the IC function will be shown.

To test another IC of the same type, simply insert the next IC and press the TEST/EXEC key again. To test a different IC, enter the new IC type number in the usual way, noticing that pressing the first digit of the new number automatically clears the previous number from the display.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester effect of this is usually unnoticeable, but where the test takes a reasonable time to execute there will be a delay before the instrument responds to the MODE/CLEAR key. Note: Testing high current ICs in loop mode w ill drain the batteries quickly, and it is recommended that a battery eliminator is used if you w ish to perform loop tests. 11.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester 12. self test mode This feature allows you to check the integrity of the unit, including the pin drivers and receivers, power supplies and other internal hardware. The test executes automatically at switch on, but you can if you wish perform a self-test at any time by selecting Self-Test (DIAGS) mode using the MODE/CLEAR key and pressing TEST/EXEC. If a fault is discovered a brief description will be displayed which will help our engineers to locate and rectify the fault.
Model 570A Linear IC Tester on for ever. We recommend using a battery eliminator when using CompactLink mode to develop test programs. 14. specifications SPECIFICATIONS Batteries: DC input: Power consumption: Test parameters: RS-232 settings Dimensions: Library ICs: 4 X AA size 6V, 850mA max, center positive, regulated.
