Hi,

Am a newbie to modding in general (and hope that this question has been posted in the correct forum sub-category) and would like to ask whether anyone knows technical specifications and pinout details for the following please? This was attached to a DDR2 Module (possibly via a heat-spreader - cannot recall for certain) however whether this was fitted at the factory I'm not sure (at a guess it wasn't).

Apologies for the quality of the photo.

No idea whether this is programmable or whether the LEDs illuminate randomly.

Thank you for any help.

Those are more Bling than useful. Crucial Balistic Tracer Ram has them, here's a youtube review of this ram showing it...

They should come with an epilepsy warning...  :blink:

 

They are kinda cool though, although I feel there are limited practical applications of it  :doh:

Hi, Thank you for your reply. The strip that I've no idea how to hook-up has a 3-pin edge connector on it. Any idea's what manufacturer made these as it'd be great knowing how to go about hooking it up please?

 

Thank you again.

Hi, Thank you for your reply. Any idea's what the pinout is at all please? Failing that does a controller card need to be used?

Thank you again.

Post up a pic of the pinout.  That would be useful.  Make sure to get at least a part of the wires going into the pinout too.

Unless it's BallistiX it's not going do do anything with RAM activity - it'll just blink.
