Abstract:
1. A method for testing an application specific integrated circuit, comprising: measuring output data timing values of the application specific integrated circuit operating in a source synchronous mode with respect to a tester cycle transition in a first pass, using a plurality of tester cycles; measuring a first strobe timing value and a second strobe timing value of the application specific integrated circuit operating in a source synchronous mode with respect to the tester cycle transition in a second pass, using a plurality of tester cycles; and calculating data set-up timing values and data hold timing values with respect to the first strobe and the second strobe, using the output data timing values of the application specific integrated circuit measured with respect to the tester cycle transition in the first pass and the first strobe timing value and second strobe timing value of the application specific integrated circuit measured with respect to the tester cycle transition in the second pass.
