Basic IC Tester Using Arduino NANO

This document describes how to build a basic IC tester using an Arduino Nano. It requires a PCB, Arduino Nano, LEDs, resistors, buttons, IC sockets, and a power supply. The circuit is simulated in Proteus and code is written to test ICs by lighting either a green or red LED depending on if the IC passes or fails the test. The Arduino reads opcodes and tests the IC, indicating the result with the LEDs. Instructions include a parts list, circuit diagram, code explanation, and simulations.

Basic IC Tester Using Arduino NANO

by Vaibhav K Sugandhi

Hi Everyone, 2. Procedure to do this project.


I'm Vaibhav, In this post I'm going to show you
how to use Arduino NANO as Basic IC Tester 3. Coding of Arduino Nano with verification.
application. This post include with all the needful
information regarding this. 4. Circuit diagrams.

This post contains: 5. Simulations and application list.

So lets begin.....!
1. Components required for this project.

Step 1: What This Project Dose ?

Basic Information and working of this project is, Arduino Nano pins.
Basically this is the easiest project with Arduino Nano
but more of thinking in the code. This project involved This project Does :
with circuit design and coding. This is done by 2 layer Testing the IC placed with per-defined Op-Code and
PCB and Arduino Nano, which test the basic IC's like resulting with LED's. If Green LED glows then the IC
gates. is good, If Red LED glows then the IC is not good.
Indicating these two results we can test the given IC.
This project is made to test only two IC's ( 7408 and
7432 ), But we can increase this design to 8 IC's So let's begin ...!
based on the type of IC and compatibility with

Step 2: Components Required :

All required Components are : 3. T-Block ( Header block ).


1. PCB (Dotted Board ).
4. 7805 Regulator.
2. 9V Battery with connector.

5. ZIF Socket ( latched IC Base ). 10. Soldering gun and other materials

6. Arduino NANO ( Arduino UNO ) 11. Push Buttons ( Reset button )

7. Female jumper sockets. 12. ON/OFF Button.

8. LED's and Resistors. ==> Green LED - 1, Red That's it ....! So let see how to do it !.
LED - 1, Blue LED - 4 and 150Ohms Resistors

9. Connecting wires.

Step 3: Circuit Diagram and Connections.

Circuit Diagram is shown in the image, connect the components according to it.

While connecting the Switches take care of Ground connection.

Step 4: Simulation Using Emulator

This is Proteus V7 Simulator which act as Emulator Arduino Uno R3 Board :


for Arduino Nano. By using this i have done the https://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-Uno-R3-B...
testing and optimization of my code. Please check my

Step 5: Arduino Coding and Optimization.

Arduino IDE is open source software, Download it


and install.
Part 2 :
This is source code which I written for this project, If

you have any doubts or suggestions I'm always
happy to listen you !

Now you all set with design and implementation, So


let us test how it works ?

This is Part 1 : Thank you, See You Again ..!
