IC and RAM Testers

Programmers and IC Testers Description
Universal device programmers support a wide variety of programmable devices in addition to the capability of testing digital ICs. They are used to program new chips as well as copy chips for backup or repair. Universal programmers support PROMs, EPROMs, EEPROMs, Flash Memory, PAL, GAL, EPLD, CPLD, FPGA, Microcontrollers, and more. These devices are powerful, versatile, and simple to use.

IC testers are used to test integrated circuits. They test a wide range of ICs, including TTL and CMOS logic ICs, as well as test dynamic memory and statistic memory. These functions allow users to detect defective ICs. One of the common uses is quality assurance in manufacturing. IC testers come in a variety of sizes and styles.

EPROM Erasers are also available. They are high intensity UV lamps that efficiently erase EPROM chips in approximately 7 to 15 minutes. These small, durable devices contain a conductive foam pad to protect the chips from harmful electrostatic charges. Also, a UV light indicator and safety interlock switch prevent the user from accidental exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
