      • Pico 2 Based DRAM Tester - A Brand New BRILLIANT Tester from Tube Time

        I built a brand new DRAM chip tester which uses a Raspberry Pi Pico 2 to test at much faster speeds than previously possible. This amazing project was created by the brilliant Tube Time (https://bsky.app/profile/tubetime.bsky.social)

        But can it compete with my old testers?
