HowTo: How to build a 16 channel parallel port controler  (Robert Stark)


    << Previous Page       Page 1    Page 2             

Step 6 : Would you like some chips with that?


Plug in some chips and you are on your way!!

Step 7 : About Face!


Here's the back of the board. As you can see I used a standard dual row header so that you can plug it into a standard ribbon cable.

Step 8 : What do all those pins do?


Here's the pin out diagram.

Step 9 : In closing....

I am writing some free software that will drive the board. It's based on Hill's C code example except it's in VB. I will make an announcement when it is available for download. Take a look in the photo section to see the 32 port card based on this same design.
