Title: Fpm/edo memory
Post by: Iggy on December 23, 2015, 05:22:10 PM

Does anyone have any idea what SIMMs with the designation MT8D132G-6 are for?
They appear to be 72 pin SIMMs with a 32 X 1 meg organization for use as EDO or FPM memory.
I found four of them wrapped up in my spare parts bin and I don't even know what they were bought for.

Google is my friend: MT8D132G-6 DRAM (https://www.google.be/search?q=MT8D132G-6+DRAM). Is it yours ?

Yeah Staf, I found four of those and three 8 mb x 8 strips.

I looked up the stats, I am just not sure what they can be used in.
They can't be for PCs, I threw out all my 72 pin strips for those years ago.

The Amiga 4000 will take four 4 MB SIMMs, unless you modify it to take four 16 MB SIMMs.

Actually, the 4000D and the 4000T can also use two 8MB simms to get to 16MB.
But the 4000D needs single sided simms. But no mod is needed.
