Description
The 200-pin DIMM ADAPTER (p/n INN-8558-10) enables SIMCHECK II to test 200-pin FPM/EDO DIMM (Dual-Inline-Memory-Module) modules with a basic configuration of 144 bits used in the Sun Sparc Stations and other Sun Microsystem computers.
The 200-pin DIMM module is similar in appearance to the old 72-pin SIMMs with the main differences being the arrangement of the 200-pins along a double sided 100x2 edge connector and larger memory chips. The module provides 144 bits (9 words) which are controlled by one or two -RAS lines, two -CAS lines, and one -W line.
The 200-pin DIMM ADAPTER is conveniently installed into SIMCHECK II's expansion slot located just above the tester's built-in sockets; it is also automatically recognized by SIMCHECK II. All memory cells are fully tested, with a parallel write/read operation. The test procedure is similar to the regular module test.
Required SIMCHECK II Firmware Version: 1.48 or above

Operation
This tester connects to SIMCHECK II via the expansion slot. Plug the adapter into the expansion port only when SIMCHECK II is off.
Caution: Failure to turn SIMCHECK II OFF when connecting or disconnecting the 200-PIN DIMM ADAPTER may result in damage to the PAL chip of the 200-pin DIMM Adapter!
Insertion: The 200-pin DIMM ADAPTER uses a vertically mounted YAMAICHI test socket with two insertion/removal levers (flanges) that need to be moved back prior to insertion, note that they can be pushed back about 35 degrees. Inspect them closely and notice that each flange has a tab which is designed to enter the standard holes present on the module's sides when the DIMM is correctly inserted. With very little pressure, insert the module into the socket and tilt it backwards (thus also tilting the flanges) until the small tabs on the socket flanges enter the holes in the module sides. With both hands, return the flanges to the normal vertical position until the DIMM module enters the socket.
Removal: Make sure that the power red LED is OFF. DIMM insertion and removal should be done only during STANDBY mode. Take note not to remove the module while there is a test in progress. Place one finger on top of the DIMM module to prevent the module from popping upward and simultaneously push the two flanges away from you.
Turn SIMCHECK II ON once the 200-PIN DIMM ADAPTER is installed in the expansion slot and insert the first DIMM module. THERE IS NO NEED TO SETUP SIMCHECK II, as it automatically recognizes this adapter. After the first DIMM has been tested and SIMCHECK II returns to the STANDBY mode, the presence of the 200-PIN DIMM ADAPTER is recognized.
The 200-PIN DIMM ADAPTER test procedure is similar to our regular module test.
