These are newly manufactured 16mb 30-pin SIMMs for vintage high-end PCs and Apple systems and some synthesizers and other vintage devices. Lovingly hand-assembled and individually tested.
Unlike some of the other "new" modules you'll find online, these are built on a high quality 4-layer PCB that was designed based on extensive study of period systems and existing modules. These don't suffer from issues with poor contact due to board thickness or bad design -- many customers have now reported back to say our modules have worked in systems where other modern replacements haven't. We're using newer memory chips with an on-board voltage regulator and a custom design to ensure reduced bus loading and life-long performance that is guaranteed to meet or exceed original vintage parts.
The LDO regulator on there has me wondering if they are using 3.3v rams in a 5v system w/o level translators
Not good.
Non stable when using LDO regulator? Can image that the ram ics needs constant 5volt?
I don't believe that those pictured are parity SIMMs in any case. Good for Apple, but maybe not PeeSee.
I saw a parity error on a Sparc 10 workstation. I had just installed some memory and I didn't notice a piece of hair that lodge between the DIMM and the socket. System displayed the message and continued to boot. IMO parity is a good thing.The need for parity was kind of overblown though, and if you could turn the check off in the BIOS (or by jumper) then it was no real loss. How many people have ever even seen the parity error screen? PC's of that era had no way to recover from a parity error so they just dropped into a 40-col text mode, displayed an error, and locked up.
