Bob is right I think Don. I used 1K into the base of two transistors. This is based on the circuit of the original (TB-1) Mullen extender board.

I’m not keen on the low input impedance of the probe circuit. That represents a loading of several TTL loads. It might cause a problem with more than 4 or 5 boards plugged into the buss. I have long used a Mullen TB-4 Extender Card / Logic Probe. This board uses an op-amp / comparator to attain high input impedance and also offers the ability to see open / tri-state / “TTL ½” signals. That would undoubtedly take more space, but it would be much more useful and would not add significant load to the buss. Fortunately, I still have my TB-4 manual and schematic, so if you would be interested in seeing how the comparator is used, I could pass that along.

Guys,
What do you think about this new version of the breakout board?
I doubled the number of test pads and added six built in logic probes.
You can monitor up to six signals with the 7 segment LED showing
H (High) or L (Low). To monitor a signal you place a jumper from the
signal post to a bus pin.
I tried to use a simple logic probe design to conserve on board space.
Design uses 7404. I'm open for suggestions to improve probe circuit.
Thank you.
