I stopped by a scrap place and picked up an
interesting looking
board. It has a number of AM29818 "Diagnostic Resisters" on it. I
wasn't familar with them so I looked them up on the net and found
this
<http://www.national.com/pf/54/54ACT818.html> for an equivelent part.
Is there anybody here familar with these that would care to tell me
what they are in plain english?
Joe
They look to be a 8-bit register (or edge-triggered latch) that you can
'talk to' and read their input/change their latched value using a
bit-serial connection (the SDI/SDO lines).
