Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of memory testing, and specifically belongs to a modular memory testing main board. Background Art

[0002] When testing memory chips in the prior art, the test is usually carried out on the test main board used, such as a computer main board or a server main board. By loading various specifications of slots on the main board to meet the test requirements of various specifications of products, for small-batch tests in the industry, this low-cost hardware configuration is selected for testing. Due to its limitation by the hardware and the supporting test operators, mass production automation has not been achieved. For the existing methods of testing mass-produced memory chips, usually, the test operator is equipped with a tester to achieve mass production. In order to facilitate loading of the chips, the test main board usually needs to be modified, and the test positions are arranged flat on the plane of the test main board.

[0003] In the existing test main board, each functional module is integrated together, and the layout area is relatively large. When the test main board fails, it is impossible to quickly find the fault point, and the number of test positions that a single main board can carry is limited. Usually, the number of test positions in the DDR5 system is less than 20, and even in the X16 system, there are only 8. To set more test positions, more test main boards need to be arranged flat. After being arranged flat, it will occupy a large working area, with higher costs, and the travel of the handling mechanism also increases, directly reducing the production capacity of the equipment. Moreover, different memory chips need to be equipped with different test main boards for testing. Each test main board is adapted to a specific specification of memory chip. However, the existing test main boards have a single function and are only suitable for single-chip testing, with poor applicability and compatibility. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a modular memory testing main board. The present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] A modular memory testing main board includes several modular boards, and the several modular boards are detachably connected.

[0006] In a possible embodiment, the several modular boards are connected by a connector.

[0007] In a possible embodiment, the modular board includes a power supply, a power supply adapter board, a power control board, a current control board, and a test board;

[0008] The power supply is detachably connected to the power control board through the power supply adapter board, the power control board is detachably connected to the current control board, and the test board is detachably connected to the current control board.

[0009] In a possible embodiment, the number of the test boards is not less than one, and test positions are arranged on each of the test boards.

[0010] In a possible embodiment, the modular board further includes a peripheral function board. The power control board is detachably connected to the peripheral function board, and a BMC, a USB, a UART, and an RJ45 are arranged on the peripheral function board.

[0011] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0012] The present utility model improves the existing memory test main board and disassembles it into multiple modular boards. It is convenient to disassemble between the modular boards. When it is necessary to test by replacing memory chips of different specifications and models, only the test board in the modular board needs to be replaced, and other modular boards do not need to be replaced, which is convenient for model change and low in cost. The same tester can be compatible with different test requirements; and the functions of the board modules are separated, which is convenient for parallel testing. At the same time, when a failure occurs in the device, the faulty board can be quickly located, which is convenient for maintenance and repair, and also saves the maintenance and repair costs; at the same time, disassembling the test main board into multiple modular boards enables more test positions to be carried on the plane space of the test platform. In this way, the supporting automation equipment has a smaller space, the traveling mechanism has a smaller stroke, and the running speed is faster, which improves the production capacity of the equipment, saves the working site, improves the space utilization rate, and is beneficial to the supporting automated mass production test.
