Module Reduction (MR) Technology™

Nexus Technology's Module Reduction Technology™ is available with select DDR3 products. This technology allows for full acquisition including command, address, read and write data while cutting the Tektronix logic analyzer module requirement in half. The number of TLA7BB4 modules required for either DDR3-1867 & DDR3-1600 acquisition is reduced from four to two when using MR Technology™. The number of TLA7BB4 modules required for DDR3-1333 or slower acquisition is reduced from two to one when using MR Technology™.

Module Reduction Technology™ is a software solution. No qualifier sideband signals are required and no active circuitry is implemented in MR Technology™ which would otherwise force double-probing and increase the load on the DDR3 target.

Maximum DDR3 Speed	Used To Require	New MR Technology™ Requirement
DDR3-1867	4 Modules	2 Modules
DDR3-1600	4 Modules	2 Modules
DDR3-1333	2 Modules	1 Module
DDR3-1067	2 Modules	1 Module
DDR3-800	2 Modules	1 Module
