Hi!

(Carrying this back to the mail list)...I can see a pretty simple design to
test the speed of 5101's as a useful tool in our tool kits...other Static
Ram as well. Perhaps an add-on for a standard RAM tester that a number of
folks have?

What RAM would people like to test?

RAM test equipment that I have:

SIMCHECK with the RamCheck option
StarTek DT-90 Dram Tester (4164/41256) that has a dial for the speed test
(kit -schematics on ftp site)
E-Comms BUGTRAP Model 8000 that tests 4116, 2118, 4164, 41256, 41128,
411000, 4416, 4464, and 44256. Speed tests from 250ns down to 80ns.

I am thinking of modifying the Bugtrap as it does test 4 bit DRAM to do the
5101's - but not sure how to do that at the moment. It's been a LONG time
since I last looked at the design difference between Static and Dynamic RAM
Addressing issues.

Probably take me a couple of hours to glom a small PCB interface then never
finish the thing once it works...

How to subscribe or unsubscribe from TTL

To do either you send email to "MajorDomo@flippers.com" and in the body you
