Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: an apparatus, comprising: a first connection, at which a corresponding calibration signal can be input; a second connection at which the calibration signal can be emitted, to which a semiconductor component test apparatus is connectable; a third connection at which the calibration signal can be emitted, to which a probecard is connectable for contacting semiconductor components to be tested by the semiconductor component test apparatus, wherein the first connection being at least one of connected and connectable via a corresponding line to a first switch, which is at least one of connected and connectable to the second connection, and to a second switch, which is at least one of connected and connectable to the third connection; and a calibration apparatus connected to the first connection for selectively calibrating at least one of the semiconductor component test apparatus and the probecard depending on a state of the first and the second switch.
