Applications
This interposer family is an essential tool for engineers working on:
Design Validation: Verify signal integrity and timing margins during memory subsystem development.
Debugging: Isolate and analyze anomalies in high-speed memory interfaces with precise waveform capture.
Compliance Testing: Ensure adherence to JEDEC standards (e.g., JESD209-5C for LPDDR5, JESD79-5C.01 for DDR5) and manufacturer-specific requirements.
Performance Optimization: Fine-tune memory controllers and PHYs for maximum throughput and reliability.
Why It Matters
As memory technologies like LPDDR5/6 and DDR5/6 push the boundaries of speed and efficiency—driven by applications in AI, 5G, and high-performance computing—the need for accurate, non-intrusive testing solutions has never been greater. Traditional probing methods often introduce noise or fail to capture signals at multi-gigabit rates. Nexus Technology’s interposers address these challenges by providing a reliable bridge between memory devices and test equipment, enabling engineers to accelerate time-to-market while ensuring product quality.
Conclusion
With support for data rates exceeding 10 Gbps and compatibility across LPDDR5, LPDDR6, DDR5, and DDR6 Nexus Technology’s new interposer family sets a new standard for high-speed memory testing. Whether you’re designing cutting-edge mobile devices, enterprise servers, or embedded systems, these interposers deliver the precision and flexibility needed to succeed in a competitive landscape.
