The PCCtest 350 socket tester provides a quick and easy way of verifying the operation of a host socket. Housed in a type II PC Card, the PCCtest includes software to test a wide variety of socket controllers from Intel, Cirrus Logic, Vadem, Ricoh, Omega Micro and VLSI Technology. The PCCtest socket tester verifies all signals on the 16-bit PC Card interface including accurate Vcc and Vpp measurements.

Manufacturers, service centers and developers of PC Card products can benefit from the quick verification of their 16-bit PC Card hosts. How many times have you wondered if the problem you were having was hardware, software or both? A 15-second test by the PCCtest can save hours of debug work by validating the hardware portion of the 16-bit PC Card interface. Some of our PCCtest customers were able to find design errors in products they already had in production.

The PCCtest 350 extends the capabilities of the PCCtest 250 by adding a serial interface for “backdoor” debugging of the PC Card interface. If the socket appears completely “dead”, the user can debug by accessing the PCCtest's internal registers. Data, address and strobe signals may be monitored or asserted. The PCCtest 350 is perfect for bringing up a PC Card host design. The RS-232 serial interface can connect to the host machine or a dumb terminal.

The PCCtest 350 is designed to test products based on the original PCMCIA 2.1 release. The tester verifies all data, address and strobe signals at 5.0 volts. The PCCtest 350 is best suited for the following PC Card controllers:
