Those in pic 2 look like 30 pin SIMM's there is still a lot being sold and I think they actually yield higher than the newer DIMM's.mls26cwru said:kjavanb123 said:No those sticks have a black dot in the middle, all of these are RAM or memory, some of them tin plated.

ahhh, okay. i was thinking that with fewer IC chips on the small ram modules could skew the results to the low side... it would be interesting to see how a batch of modern RAM (the bigger sticks with more chips on a stick) compares to the batch you are doing now.
I am looking forward to seeing the results.![]()

I just broke a DDR2 chip into tiny pieces. Finally I found the bond wires, they were tiny! The memory IC was a BGA type of package with two groups of solder balls along the long sides sitting on a thin glass fiber board, the die was mounted upside down on top of this board. The bond wires were bonded from the fiber board down to the die along the center line, resulting in a minimal length bond wire.patnor1011 said:gold4mike said:There has been talk lately of having to sort RAM in the near future when selling to the board buyers.

Or more, thin chips mean more units in weighted sample. More chips mean more wires.
