30-PIN SIMM Tester
Posted by: macsonny on 2026-01-27 02:32:08 Hi All, I have a heap of 30-pin SIMMs that I'd like to test. Anyone know of a cheaper tester kit or something I can build up? Thank macsonny

Thank macsonny An Arduino Mega256 would have enough I/O pins to test a SIMM. The most challenging bit will be to test memory at the full speed of the memory. Basic functionality would be fine though.
