Most of my concern would be simply populating another DIMM slot... ;)

Hey, life is about compromises... ;)

:D not much need to worry about temps if you drop your overclock. LOL

I just envisioned someone piggy backing onto a std but empty DIMM PCB.

This made me think. And I suggested to starbuck3733t that he could make a circuit on a Dimm-shaped PCB, so that all you have to do is slot it in an empty memory slot (which, of course, makes the right connections), hook up the probes and presto!

starbuck3733t is insanely busy right now, but if you happen to be making one, MMZ Timelord, I'm interested. Very interested.

Yes... and the fun begins here: http://www.wizdforums.co.uk/showthre...&page=11&pp=10

first pic is a rough idea of teh dimm before I got the JEDEC specs on the 184pin DDR format. A few posts before that is the funniest post EVER by nexxo.

Wow, that sounds very interesting!

Do you have a design for the max 6655? I have 2 samples from maxim still unused, waiting for a pcb. If you have make it, i'm on for a couple boards, or better, a dual 6655 one.

pHaestus 07-23-2004 11:48 PM

If you want to make a PCB for the MAX6655 then you can just use the one they provide with the MAX6655EVSYS documentation

nicozeg 07-24-2004 08:38 PM

That was my initial plan, but choose to make a smaller one. But I have my samples ready since a month and no time to make the pcb, so buying one ready, that also fits in a dimm slot sounds great.

Is this project still going ahead as planned, or has it been indefinately delayed by Timelord's sudden unemployment?

Im still very much interrested, and up for 2 kits (or a dual), as long as the project is still a go within a reasonable amount of time.

Please give us an update.

Been a while without news my guess is another of us will need to start working on it. Due to cost considerations it may require a redesign to minimize layer usage.

These may be useful.

Well, this thread still seems to be alive, so if things don't work out here, I'l see if im not too late to get in on this:

I've been away for some time... still looking for employment. :cry: :shrug: :confused: :mad:

I'll see just how much trouble it is to make these boards this week. I have to go over to my buddies work this week to return some equipment.

I'll post when I know more.

Thanks a lot!

I'm interested in a dual 6655 presoldered.
The geek in me wants unsoldered for $30, but the more rational side says my soldering skills suck, and I'd probably spend more than an hour or two screwing around with the soldering iron anyway, making the kit more expensive in the long run... ;)

Stigma 09-01-2004 05:06 PM

Well, just letting you know im still interrested. I'l keep checkingthe thread every other day or so for new posts from you.

I'd be up for 1 or 2 of the 6655's
