2.6 External Interface Breakout Board
The External Interface Breakout Board is an accessory that allows convenient access to
several potentially useful standard, fast TTL output and input signals. It also offers a
simple way to connect logic Analyzers or other tools to the Advisor Analyzer unit. Four
ground pins and one 5-volt pin are provided.

The Breakout Board connects via a cable to the Data In/Out connector located on the
rear of the Analyzer box. Each signaling pin is isolated by a 100
Ω
series resistor and a
buffer inside the Analyzer box.
