Agilent introduces DDR3 1866 DIMM interposer test solution

Agilent and FuturePlus Systems have introduced the sector’s first DDR3 1866 DIMM interposer test solution, the companies have announced.

In a statement, they explained that the solution is made up of the FS2352 interposer for next-generation double-data-rate (DDR) SDRAM buses and the Agilent 16962A logic analyser module.

Commenting on the launch, Jun Chie, marketing manager for logic and protocol test at Agilent, said that when used together, the two tools provide "superior insight" into DDR3 bus activity.

"This solution setup is more proof of Agilent’s commitment to provide designers of DDR devices with the ideal toolset to address their test challenges," the company representative added.

Edward Aichinger, president of FuturePlus Systems, said that the two solutions provide "compelling" information on DDR3 bus activity.

In recent days, Agilent announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to purchase scientific instrument company Varian, a move that has been unanimously supported by both firms’ boards of directors.
