  • Question
  • Refer to the keyboard encoder in figure (a). Sometimes when the 5 key is pressed, the system attached to the keypad does not respond. The 5 input on the 74147 is monitored with a digital storage scope while repeatedly pressing the 5 key, and the waveform in figure (b) is obtained; the P above the trace indicates the points at which the technician pressed the key. What is most likely wrong with the circuit?

  • Options
  • A. The switches on the 5 key are intermittent; the contacts need to be cleaned or the switch replaced.
  • B. The pull-up resistor connected to the 5 key is bad and should be replaced.
  • C. The common ground connection at the bottom of the 0 key has a bad solder connection; repair the connection.
  • D. The 74147 is intermittent, possibly due to high temperature, and should be replaced.

  • Correct Answer
  • The switches on the 5 key are intermittent; the contacts need to be cleaned or the switch replaced.
