Inquisitor IC Testing System – Start bundle

Description

This product has been replaced by our own RAM – PIA – RIOT tester:

Pinball Solutions RAM – PIA – RIOT Tester

 

 

This bundle includes the main Core and the SRAM blade in kit to assemble.

NeoLoch’s new Inquisitor IC testing system allows for a much wider range of IC testing than our previous designs. This split design accepts various blades. Each blade allows for testing of a specific range of ICs.

Excellent solution to test the CMOS, RAMs and other ICs used inside your pinball machines from several brands like: Zaccaria, Bally, Stern, Williams, Data East, Gottlieb.

NeoLoch’s new Inquisitor testing system expands on our previous designs. We took all the common components to our testers and wrapped them up in the “Core” module and added a card edge socket. All the specific components were placed on a “Blade”. This new system allows us to create a much wider range of testing aids.

This interchangeable system allows the user to focus in on a group of testing aids. And allows us to respond to user desired tests with greater ease. NeoLoch’s first blade is for static RAM with many blades planned for future release, these include a PIA blade, a 4116 DRAM blade, a 9060 DRAM blade, a PSRAM blade along with many other exciting blades planned for the future.

Inquisitor Testing System Features:

• 2 x 16 character LCD display.
• Sytem error LEDs.
• Bi-Color test status LED.
• 2.1mm DC power jack.
• 40 pin ZIF socket.
• 5 Control Switches.
• Onboard +12V and +5V voltage regulator.
• 4 mounting holes.
• Selectable regulated or unregulated +12V power source.

 

SRAM Blade V4

The static RAM blade tests the following static RAM: 2101, 5101, 2016, 2018, 2114, 6514, 9114, 2125, 2147, 2148, 2149, 2465, 6264, 4016, 6116, 6810, 7489, 74189, M5M5189, 62256, W24257, W24512 Downloads: SRAM Blade Assembly Guide SRAM Blade User Manual V3

6821 PIA & 6532 RIOT Blade

This updated blade now supports 6532 RIOT, “Ram IO Timer”, as well as the 6520 & 6821 PIA “Peripheral Interface Adapter” ICs. Testing of ICs is much faster thanks to a  MCU running at 32 MHz (PIC16F1719) along with a simplified progress bar during the testing process. After the test is complete any errors detected can be displayed for further diagnosis. Tests include conducted by the PIA blade include (but are not limited to): PORTA & B read / write. CA1 & CA2 interrupts. CA2 output modes. CB1 & CB2  interrupts. CB2 output modes. Rrising and falling edge triggers. IRQA and IRQB. And more. V2.0 Features: Bi-Color reversibility Statistics Tracking Repeat test  (1 to 255) 6532 RIOT Support. Downloads: PIA Assembly Guide PIA User Manual V3

4116 DRAM Blade

The 4116 DRAM blade uses our custom designed testing algorithm to provide accurate and fast testing of the following DRAM types: 4116 / 9016 / D416 4027 / 4096. Downloads: 4116 Assembly Guide 4116 User Manual V2

PSRAM DRAM Blade

The PSRAM DRAM blade provides accurate and fast testing of the following DRAM types: 2764, 4164, 6665, 9064, 4256, 41256, 4416, 4464, 41464, 44256, 4516 and 81416. After the test is complete any errors detected can be displayed for further diagnosis. Downloads: PSRAM Assembly Guide PSRAM User Manual V1

9060 DRAM Blade

The 9060 DRAM blade uses our custom designed testing algorithm to provide accurate and fast testing of the 9060 and 9060 pin compatible DRAM. Downloads: 9060 DRAM Assembly Guide 9060 DRAM User Manual V1

This bundle includes the main Core and the SRAM Blade in kit to assemble.

The bundle does not include a power supply so you’ll need to supply your own 12V power supply with 2.1mm DC power jack.

Additional blades can be ordered separately.
