The RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 (part number INN-8686-DDR2+1) is our state-of-the-art "combo" tester for DDR2 and DDR DIMMs that comply with Jedec standards. Designed to help your bottom line, RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 provides you with memory tests that are fast and hassle-free.

The RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 tester is compatible with all existing RAMCHECK adapters, including the DIMMCHECK 168 adapter for testing PC133/100/66 SDRAM. To switch from testing one memory format to another, just swap out the adapters. You can also upgrade RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 in the field, with free firmware upgrades that you can download from our website. A PC communication program is also included which allows you to print and log the test results, plus store/edit/program the module's SPD information.

RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 requires no setup to use. Plug in the adapter (DDR2, DDR Pro, etc.,) turn the RAMCHECK LX unit on, insert a memory module into the test socket and then press the start button.

The RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 is modular and very user friendly. But don't let its small size fool you! RAMCHECK LX is loaded with state-of-the-art electronic components. In fact, RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 tester has features commonly found in testers costing 10 times more.
 
Functions Image Specifications
Start-up RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 features a large vivid high-contrast display measuring 2.7" x 1.43" (69mm x 36.5mm). Easily viewable at an angle, from 3-4 feet away. Seen here is the startup screen once the RAMCHECK LX DDR2/DDR1 is turned on.
Basic
Image
Basic Test screen shows the size, the speed, the voltage, the test pattern, the module's bank and the CAS Latency. This example shows testing at 667MHz with an automatic setting of CAS Latency to the default value of CL=4 for this frequency.
Successful test phases conclude with a clear 'Pass' message and with distinguishing sound tones. Important parameters are shown in this screen, followed by a detailed test results summary screen.
Test
Results
Test results summary screens provide a wealth of information after each test phase. All summary screens are also added to the Test Log.
Test Log collects and retains all intermediary test results while the memory devices undergo all of the test phases. The Test Log remains until a new test is initiated. The Test Log may be uploaded to a PC for printing via the USB interface. You can also save the file.
Extensive
Test
The EXTENSIVE Test performs various tests to establish memory quality.
VOLTAGE CYCLING performs tests under allowable voltage deviations from the recommended VDD setting.
MODE Test identifies various operational parameters of the device, including different bursts lengths and CAS latency settings.
VOLTAGE BOUNCE tests data retention during voltage variation between read and write.
MARCH UP/DOWN reveals adjacent cell interference problems.
CHIP HEAT MODE tests at elevated operating temperatures
AUTO LOOP tests memory with endless pattern changes. Great for burn-in testing.
The RAMCHECK LX provide advanced setup features. Certain timing parameters may be selected graphically as shown here.
Make changes "on-the-fly" to test parameters with the push of a button.
SPD Editor The device's SPD can be conveniently viewed, edited and programmed on the RAMCHECK LX. You can also use our advanced SPD features in the PC RAMCHECK LX communications program.
