3. ઓપરેટિંગ સૂચનાઓ
The XK-150 trainer is designed for intuitive operation with clearly labeled controls and an LCD display that shows settings for the active module. Simply touch a control element, and the LCD will switch to that module and display its current settings.
3.1 Function Generator
The powerful 1 MHz bandwidth function generator provides sine, triangle, and square wave outputs in both TTL and CMOS formats. Use the frequency and level controls to adjust the output signal. The function selector allows you to choose the desired waveform.
3.2 પલ્સ જનરેટર
The pulse generator operates as a second independent function generator. It allows you to modify the duty cycle between 10% and 90%, providing flexibility for various pulse-based circuit designs. Adjust frequency, level, and duty cycle using the dedicated controls.
3.3 કાઉન્ટર
The frequency counter module reports on the output of your designed circuits. It supports both unipolar and bipolar inputs, providing accurate frequency measurements for analysis and debugging.
3.4 પાવર સપ્લાય
The trainer offers multiple power supply options:
- AC Power Supplies: Provides 6.3V or 12.6V AC power.
- ડીસી પાવર સપ્લાય: Includes a fixed 5V DC supply and variable ±20V DC supplies. Power can be drawn from banana plug connections or directly from the tie-point power supplies located above each breadboard bus strip.
3.5 Logic Indicators and Displays
- LED Logic Indicators: Eight LED indicators (b0-b7) are available to visualize the logic states of your circuits.
- Logic Probe: An onboard logic probe helps in testing circuits by indicating pulse, high, or low logic states.
- Hexa 7-Segment LED Display: Two 7-segment displays receive 8-bit input and read out in hexadecimal, useful for displaying digital outputs.
3.6 નિયંત્રણ તત્વો
- પોટેન્ટિઓમીટર: Includes 1K and 10K potentiometers for variable resistance in analog circuits.
- BNC Connectors: Two BNC connectors are provided for external signal input/output, typically used with oscilloscopes or other test equipment.
- SPDT Switches: Two Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT) switches offer versatile switching options.
- Logic Switches: Eight logic switches (S0-S7) provide manual control over logic inputs.
- Debounced Pushbuttons: Two debounced pushbuttons (PB1, PB2) ensure clean signal transitions for digital inputs.
3.7 Breadboard Area
The breadboard area features over 4,000 tie points, providing ample space for prototyping. The breadboard is removable for easy replacement or customization.
