if its an ic tester you seek serch the forums ive posted ic testers to them before, even the logic ic tester , pin number one basically starts at the top left corner of the ic and the round indentation on that ic marks where the pin count starts from  in the anti clockwise direction , as for the part number and date in code there on the ic , some ics may have the round indentation at the opisite end  but in the middle , so the count starts at the top left side next to the round indentation

hi steven!
can i have the principle of operation of your hardware circuit?
I mean to say how does your circuit identifies say an "and gate ic"?
and it accordingly sends 2 high i/ps and senses high at the o/p?

search the forums youll find ic testers ive made  ,the circuits are there even the logic ic tester to , any circuit that has blinking leds, and that use the most pins of a logic ic can be conciderd a tester in its own rights
