    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a test circuit for testing a synchronous memory circuit 3 which is operated with a high clock frequency and which is capable of adjusting test latency.
    SOLUTION: This test circuit has a frequency multiplying circuit 4 generating a high frequency clock signal for the synchronous memory chip 3 by multiplying a specific multiplication factor to the frequency of a low frequency clock from the external test unit 2, a test data generator 16 which generates test data based on a data control signal from the external test unit 2 and writes the data in the synchronous memory circuit 3, a first signal delay circuit 19 for delaying the test data by an adjustable first delay time, a second signal delay circuit 24 for delaying data from the circuit 3 to a test circuit 1 by an adjustable second delay time and a data comparing circuit 27 which compares the test data generated by the generator 16 with data from the circuit 3 and outputs a signal indicating whether the circuit 3 can operate or not to the unit 2.

    Abstract: The method and the device generate digital signal patterns. Signal patterns or signal pattern groups are stored in a very small buffer register. The position of a following signal pattern or following signal pattern group is also stored in the form of a branch address, together with each signal pattern or each signal pattern group. A simple control logic circuit receives a control signal and determines whether the content of the currently addressed group is output continuously or the following group given by the branch address stored in the register is output after the currently selected group has been completely output. The novel method and device can advantageously be used for testing semiconductor memories and implemented in a cost-effective semiconductor circuit which is remote from a conventional test system.

    Abstract: A testing and control process for electronic chips comprises comparing command block (101) test data currents with identification units (106a-n), activating the circuits (105a-n) where the data corresponds, rough working at least one command block (102a-k) in the circuit and deactivating circuits having non-corresponding data. An independent claim is also included for a test circuit for the above process.

    Abstract: The system enables testing fast synchronous semiconductor circuits, particularly semiconductor memory chips. Various test signals such as test data, data strobe signals, control/address signals are combined to form signal groups and controllable transmit driver and receiver elements allocated to them are in each case jointly activated or, respectively, driven by timing reference signals generated by programmable DLL delay circuits. A clock signal generated in a clock generator in the BOST semiconductor circuit is picked up at a tap in the immediate vicinity of the semiconductor circuit chip to be tested and fed back to a DLL circuit in the BOST chip where it is used for eliminating delay effects in the lines leading to the DUT and back to the BOST.

    Abstract: Test circuit for testing a circuit (3) which is clocked with a high-frequency clock signal and needs to be tested, where the test circuit (1) has: (a) a frequency multiplication circuit (8) which multiplies the clock frequency of a clock signal (CLKTest), output by a tester (2), for producing the high-frequency clock signal (CLKDUT) by a frequency multiplication factor (k); (b) a control signal input bus (14) for receiving various external control signals (RAS, CAS, WE, CS) for the circuit (3) which is to be tested from the tester (2), where each control signal (RAS, CAS, WE, CS) is received in parallel via a plurality of control lines whose number is respectively equal to the frequency multiplication factor (k); (c) a parallel/serial converter (17) which is clocked with the high-frequency clock signal, is connected to the control signal input bus (14) and outputs each control signal to the circuit (3) to be tested via a control line of a control signal output bus (23, 25); and (d) a decoder circuit (19) which is clocked with the high-frequency clock signal and produces internal control signals (R/W) for the test circuit (1) on the basis of the control signals (CAS, RAS, WE, CS) which are on the control signal input bus (14), so that additional external control lines are not needed.
