In designing interfaces between a microprocessor or minicomputer and an external device, i t is important to "breadboard" a prototype unit first. The prototyper described in this article minimizes the labor in this step by: (1) providing electrical connections to the computer; (2) providing commonlvneeded facilitiessuch as various supplv and ret+renrr voltages, :r clock signal, ev.; and ( , I ) mlnirninnr the likelihcnd thnt electrical r
