DEB 01 (Didactic Experimental Board) is a very intresting experimental, development and support board for the ABACO® serie industrial cards.
The board is made of seven independent sections, each one involving parallel interfaces, that give the possibility to test those procedures which use two 8 bits I/O ports. DEB 01 is provided with a set of comfortable connectors to interface to the several sections on the board from grifo® standard I/O connectors.
Matching DEB 01 to one of the grifo® intelligent control cards (GPC® serie) allows to learn and experiment the several hardware and software techniques that must be employed in the industrial automation field. Being provided with a very wide range of example programs written in many languages for a great number of different CPU's, DEB 01constitues a good "launchpad" to enter with competence in the articulate world of microelectronics.
The seven DEB 01 sections are designed to solve the basic problems of the industrial automation filed like keyboard scanning, seven segments display refresh, signals acquisition and setting, printer management, sound generation through buzzer, LCD and fluorescent display driving, etc.

• - Size: 100 x 260 mm con with holes for mechanical mounting.
• - Section for generic I/O management: 16 keys + 16 LEDs + field signals connected to the same input/output lines of the control card.
• - Section to manage four 7 segments digits + 4 x 4 matrix hexadecimal keyboard.
• - Section to manage LCD display + 4 keys + Buzzer. Display that can be driven is LM 40x21A manufactured by SHARP.
• - Section to manage fluorescent display + 3 keys + Buzzer. Displays that can be driven are family MxxxSD manufactured by FUTABA.
• - Section to manage CENTRONICS printer output.
• - Section to manage I/O signals from external world provided with screw terminal connectors to duplicate the I/O signals.
• - Section to manage standard grifo® 20 pins I/O connectors to interface to GPC® 68 board.
• - LEDs to visualize signals statusand keys of different colors to make esier the signals recgnition, the signals come from standard grifo® 20 pins I/O connectors.
• - Unique +5 Vdc power supply that can be provided through the command card interfacement connectors.
