Abstract:
A semiconductor chip test apparatus includes a plurality of power supply units, each supplying power to a semiconductor chip having a power input terminal, and a tester configured to measure an output current of at least one of the plurality of power supply units, and to generate a switching control signal when the measured output current is greater than a predetermined current. The semiconductor chip test apparatus also includes a plurality of relays each arranged between a common ground of the tester and a different ground of the semiconductor chip. Further, the semiconductor chip test apparatus includes a relay controller, such as a control bit generator, configured to selectively close one or more of the plurality of relays in response to the switching control signal from the tester.
