Is a mechanically separated DUT socket (via cable) possible?
Yes. The part can be remoted from the tester up to 100 feet. The distance does affect the speed at which the test program can be run. For the SDRAM SEU testing mentioned above the DUT was remoted 20 feet and the test was run at 20MHz. At some environment sources you may want to leave the test unit within 10 to 20 feet of the DUT and also remote the Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse. This can be accomplished up to 500 feet using a product from http://www.cybex.com/web/en.nsf/Content/LongView Other customers have used a software product called PCAnywhere to remotely control our units.
