[Techtoolslist] Kool Tools: IC Comparator checks PROMs

[John Robertson]

If anyone has a BUGTRAP IC Comparator, this toll also appears to 
compare PROMs. Very nice for checking soldered in PROMs (like an 
Asteroids C8 PROM). I wonder if it will also check RAM - never 
attempted that, but perhaps the next time I have a suspect RAM I'll 
pop the IC Comparator across it and see. Note the Comparator that I 
am using is the second generation version that checks up to 20 pin 
devices.

Have a customer sending in a Death Race, I think the BUGTRAP IC 
Comparator and an Eprom Emulator could be used together to check in 
circuit PROMs that one does not have a known-to-be-good one handy! 
Svae desoldering a bunch of PROMs...

Disclaimer:  I don't work for BUGTRAP...
