Abstract: A dummy dual in-line memory module (DIMM) testing system based on boundary scan interconnect and a method thereof. A dummy dual in-line memory module functioning normally is used as a test fixture, a dummy dual in-line memory module under test is served as an unit under test (UUT), and the test fixture and the unit under test are inserted into a test device to electrically connect to each other, so that the test access port (TAP) device can perform boundary scan to control the test fixture to test the unit under test through signal pins, and check a test result based on a data signal collected from at least one boundary scan register. Therefore, the effect of improving testing convenience of the dummy DIMM can be achieved.

Abstract: A design system for a test adapter card is provided. The circuitry to be tested on a motherboard is divided to form multiple modules to be tested, each of which corresponds to an interface to be tested. According to specifications of preset interfaces, the preset interface corresponding to each interface to be tested is selected, wherein the specifications of the preset interfaces conform to connector specifications of commercially available cables, multiple preset pins included in the selected preset interface completely cover the pins to be tested included in the corresponding interface to be tested, and the number of the preset pins included in the selected preset interface is greater than or equal to the number of the pins to be tested included in the corresponding interface to be tested. Design information required for producing the test adapter card is output based on the selection result and the division result.

Abstract: A network apparatus connected with a first clock source and at least one second clock source is provided. The network apparatus includes a system clock, a slave port connected to the first clock source, at least one passive port connected to the at least one second clock source, and a processor that controls synchronization of the system clock. The processor determines, from the slave port, a first clock offset between the system clock and a clock of the first clock source. The processor determines, from the at least one passive port, at least one second clock offset between the system clock and at least one clock of the at least one second clock source. The processor determines a true clock offset based on the first clock offset and the at least one second clock offset and synchronizes the system clock using the true clock offset.

Abstract: Disclosed is a membrane surface modification method. The method is applicable to a variety of hydrophobic membranes by doping selected inorganic particles. One act of the method involves the in-situ embedment of the inorganic particles onto the membrane surface by dispersing the particles in a non-solvent bath for polymer precipitation. Further membrane surface modification can be achieved by hydrothermally growing new inorganic phase on the embedded particles. The embedment of particles is for the subsequent phase growth.
