ABSTRACT:
A testing apparatus, system and method for testing computer memory modules are disclosed. The apparatus includes a motherboard having a processor and at least one resident memory socket fixed to the motherboard. A remote memory socket is provided and located a distance from the resident memory socket, such as on a periphery of the motherboard. The remote memory socket is coupled to the resident memory socket by a conductor assembly such as a ribbon cable and an adapter. A memory module is placed in the remote memory socket and tested using a signal or combination of signals from the processor. A plurality of motherboards, each being configured with remote memory sockets, may be combined to form a testing system suitable for use with an automated handler.
