| SDRAM SUPPORT:
|
The SIMCHECK II PLUS supports
168-pin SDRAM modules, while the older SIMCHECK PLUS supports only EDO/FPM
technology. |
| SPEED OF TESTS:
|
SIMCHECK II PLUS is
significantly faster than SIMCHECK PLUS. A typical 4Mx64 module which tests for
27 seconds on SIMCHECK PLUS takes a mere 4.5 seconds on SIMCHECK
II! |
| COMPACTNESS:
|
The SIMCHECK II base tester is a
single platform capable of testing both the 72-pin and 30-pin SIMM modules.
Also, many optional features and adapters of the SIMCHECK PLUS are already
built-in the SIMCHECK II (Serial interface, true 3.3V testing, and
more). |
| 1nS RESOLUTION:
|
SIMCHECK II features
state-of-the-art 1nS resolution and a 133MHz test engine, as opposed to the 5nS
resolution of the SIMCHECK PLUS. |
| LARGER MEMORY
SUPPORT: |
SIMCHECK II has a testing range
of up to four Giga addresses per bank, compared to 16 Mega addresses per bank
for SIMCHECK PLUS. Therefore, the old SIMCHECK PLUS cannot test modules larger
than 128 Megabytes, while SIMCHECK II's theoretical limit is 32
GigaBytes. |
| BETTER USER
INTERFACE: |
SIMCHECK II features a graphic
display capable of showing 4 lines of 21 characters, compared with the 16x2
display of SIMCHECK PLUS. As a result, SIMCHECK II can show more detailed test
information, provide advanced graphic setup of test parameters, and keep a
detailed test log. Graphic icons provide quick notification for errors and test
stages. |
| IMPROVED MEMORY
TESTING ARCHITECTURE: |
With its 486 processor and
improved architecture, the SIMCHECK II PLUS provides more test features which
cannot be implemented on the SIMCHECK PLUS. This includes cycle time
measurement, variable dynamic refresh, explicit setup for Trcd and Trah, and
much more. |
| PC COMMUNICATION
PACKAGE: |
SIMCHECK II PLUS comes with a
built-in serial interface and with a PC Communication program that allows it to
log and print test reports. The older SIMCHECK PLUS required an optional
external module for PC communication. |
| UPGRADE THROUGH
THE INTERNET: |
SIMCHECK II's flash BIOS can be
upgraded through our web-site, while SIMCHECK PLUS requires an EPROM
replacement to upgrade. |
