This page describes the IBM SMS card "AYC", and is part of the SMS card database.

Function of the card:
Access timing

Part number: 372311

Used in: IBM 1311 Disk

Cap code: None (details)

Symbol: SS, -O, -A, DLY

SS: Single Shot. Provides a monostable output which can be pulsed into its quasi-stable state for a predetermined duration. with each input triggering pulse or triggering voltage change. Once triggered, the output pulse duration becomes independent of input time duration or amplitude.

-O: Negative OR. In-phase output is negative if one or more Input signals are negative. Outof-phase output is positive for the above condition.

-A: Negative AND. In-phase output is negative only when all inputs are negative. Out-of-phase output is positive for the above condition.

DLY: Delay. Delays a pulse for a certain specified constant time.
