Old SIMCHECK Adapters

NOTE: Many of the Old SIMCHECK adapters may be still used on the SIMCHECK II product line. Please review the table of adapters used by the various SIMCHECK memory testers.

DIMMCHECK 168P

The DIMMCHECK 168P (p/n INN-8484-9) tests all 168-pin DIMM modules with x64, x72, and x80 bits. Tested DIMM modules include both parity and ECC types. This adapter does not support SDRAM modules

DIMMCHECK 168P PRO

The DIMMCHECK 168P PRO (p/n INN-8484-10) is a universal solution for testing 168-pin DIMM modules which are either buffered or unbuffered and use either 3.3V or 5V. This adapter is equipped with a high quality YAMAICHI test socket for easy insertion and removal. This adapter does not support SDRAM modules.

DIMMCHECK 144P PRO

The DIMMCHECK 144P PRO (p/n INN-8558-2) tests standard DRAM 144-pin DIMM modules. Tested modules include x64 parity and x72 ECC modes for either 3.3V (default) or 5V. This adapter is also equipped with a high quality test socket for easy insertion and removal. This adapter does not support SDRAM modules.

40-BIT PORT 3.3V ADAPTER

The 40 BIT PORT 3.3V ADAPTER (p/n INN-8484-5) extends the 40-BIT PORT testing capabilities for 3.3V SIMM modules.

DIMMCHECK 72P

The DIMMCHECK 72P (p/n INN-8484-4) tests all 72-pin Small Outline DIMM modules.

DRAM CARD TESTER

The DRAM CARD TESTER (p/n INN-8484-3) tests all 88-pin DRAM CARDS.

SRAM/P-SRAM MODULE TESTER

The SRAM/P-SRAM MODULE TESTER (p/n INN-8844) is the main hub for testing a variety of SRAM and P-SRAM modules. The item is equipped with two test heads which are capable of supporting JEDEC 64-pin SIMM/ZIP SRAM modules and Apple Computer's POWER BOOK modules.

SINGLE CHIP ADAPTERS

The X1 SINGLE CHIP ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-1) enables SIMCHECK to test popular 64Kx1, 256Kx1, 1Mx1, and 4Mx1 DRAM chips. The X4 DRAM ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-2) is also available to test DRAM chips with sizes of 64Kx4, 256Kx4, and 1Mx4.

PLCC/SOJ ADAPTER

The PLCC/SOJ ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-6) enables SIMCHECK to test surface mounted DRAM chips which are plugged in either the PLCC or SOJ standard. This adapter tests 64Kx1, 256Kx1, 1Mx1, 4Mx1, 64Kx4, 256Kx4, and 1Mx4. This adapter uses three high quality sockets which support the PLCC, SOJ 300 mils width and the SOJ 350 mils width standards.

16M SOJ ADAPTER

The 16M SOJ ADAPTER enables SIMCHECK to test the surface mounted SOJ DRAM chips with 16 Megabits. It can be ordered for 400 mil (p/n INN-8448-14-4) or 300 mil (p/n INN-8448-14-3) SOJ DRAM chips. These include the 4Mx4 or 16Mx1 configurations.

4M TSOP and 16M TSOP ADAPTERS

The 4M TSOP ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-16) and the 16M TSOP ADAPTER enable SIMCHECK to test the Thin Small Outline Package DRAM chips. The 4M TSOP ADAPTER tests the 26-pin 300m 4Mx1 and 1Mx4 chips, and the 16M TSOP ADAPTER tests the 28-pin 400m 16Mx1 and 4Mx4 chips, and it distinguishes between the 4K and 2K refresh modes which are now available for the 4Mx4 chips. Both adapters can be special ordered for the reverse wiring option which is popular with TSOPs.

ZIP DRAM ADAPTER

The ZIP ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-7) enables SIMCHECK to test individual DRAM chips which are packaged in the ZIP (Zigzag Inline Package) standard. This adapter tests 256Kx1, 1Mx1, 4Mx1, 64Kx4, 256Kx4 and 1Mx4. The adapter uses four high quality, burn-in type sockets. SIMCHECK automatically recognizes the presence of the ZIP ADAPTER, and the test is similar both in appearance and function to the SINGLE CHIP ADAPTER test.

SINGLE -CAS ADAPTER

The SINGLE -CAS ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-13) provides a testing solution for two types of special 30-pin SIMM modules: the SINGLE -CAS modules and the modules with PARITY BIT EMULATION LOGIC chips.

MAC IIfx ADAPTER

The APPLE MAC IIfx ADAPTER (p/n INN-8448-11) enables SIMCHECK to test the 1Mx8, 4Mx8, and the new 16Mx8 modules used by the Macintosh IIfx computer (and other APPLE products). The connector portion of these modules has 64 contacts spaced at 0.050" (1.27 mm) with an arched gap in the middle, and they are typically made of eight DRAM chips. Some of the new 16Mx8 modules may use 32 4Mx1 DRAM chips plus some logic ICs.

PC COMMUNICATION PACKAGE

The PC COMMUNICATION PACKAGE (p/n INN-8448-11) answers the request of those needing a versatile link between the stand alone SIMCHECK and their Personal Computer. With this link, SIMCHECK can be remotely activated through your PC, or you can still use it with its regular operation switches. The colorful graphic screen of the PC provides much more simultaneous information on the SIMCHECK test process than can be shown on SIMCHECK's own display.

BANK ADAPTER

The optional BANK ADAPTER enables SIMCHECK to simultaneously test up to a full bank of nine DRAM chips, with size ranging from 4Mx1, 1Mx1, 256Kx1 to 64Kx1. This adapter is up to 9 times faster than our SINGLE CHIP ADAPTER when testing a large batch of DRAM chips, since up to 9 chips can be tested at the same time.

AST ADAPTER

The AST ADAPTER is designed to test the 64-pin AST memory modules with capacities of 1M and 4M. These modules are configured as x36 bits and they typically include 9 1MegX4 chips for the 4M module or 9 256Kx4 chips for the 1M module.

x16/x18 SOJ ADAPTER

The optional X16/X18 SOJ ADAPTER enables SIMCHECK to test the surface mounted SOJ 400 mils DRAM chips with a wide data bus of 16 or 18 bits. These include the 256Kx16, 256Kx18, 1Mx16, and 1Mx18.

x8/x9 SOJ/ZIP ADAPTER

The optional x8/x9 SOJ/ZIP ADAPTER enables SIMCHECK to test various x8/x9 SOJ and ZIP individual DRAM chips. These include the 400 mil wide SOJ DRAM chips with capacities of 512Kx8/x9 and 2Mx8/x9, as well as the 512Kx8/x9 ZIP DRAM chips.

STATIC CHIP TESTER

The optional STATIC RAM TESTER brings SIMCHECK's unique testing capabilities to the vast domain of the FAST STATIC RAM chips. The unit utilizes state of the art CMOS technology which enables the testing of both ultra FAST CACHE RAM and modern LOW POWER STATIC chips.

40-PIN MODULE ADAPTER

The 40-PIN MODULE ADAPTER is designed to test the high density 40-pin modules with capacities of 256Kx16, 512Kx16, 1Mx16, and 2Mx16. These modules are configured as x16 bits and they typically include 4 or 8 x4 DRAM chips.

ADAPTERS FOR NON-STANDARD 72-P SIMM MODULES

Various computer manufacturers have come out with non-standard 72-pin SIMM modules. These are similar to the JEDEC standard but have some variation which make it difficult to support directly on the 40-BIT PORT. As a generic solution, we offer the 40-BIT PORT CUSTOMIZED Adapter (p/n INN-8484-1). Other specific adapters include the HP Workstation Adapter and the IBM 39-BIT ECC ADAPTER.

SIMCHECK MODULE HANDLER

The SIMCHECK MODULE HANDLER solves the needs of the high volume module manufacturer. Like SIMCHECK itself, the HANDLER is priced at a fraction of the cost of other device handlers in the market. It is capable of automatically testing up to 100 modules which are placed inside a vertical input tray. After undergoing a SIMCHECK test procedure, the modules are then sorted into two piles: one having the good modules, the other having the bad modules.
