Patent ID: 7810006

Claim:
A testing system for a device under test (DUT), comprising: a test parameter-generating device including a setting unit that stores test information, and that is operable so as to transmit the test information stored therein, so as to execute a test algorithm, and so as to generate a transmission signal upon execution of the test algorithm, and a control unit that is coupled to said setting unit, and that is operable so as to generate a test environment with reference to the transmission signal generated by said setting unit; and a platform module coupled to said test parameter-generating device, adapted to be coupled to the DUT, and operable so as to conduct testing of the DUT using the test information transmitted by said setting unit under the test environment generated by said control unit; wherein the test algorithm is stored in one of said setting unit and said platform module; wherein the test environment includes a programmable power source; wherein said control unit includes a measuring circuit for measuring a voltage and a current of the programmable power source of the test environment; and wherein said setting unit further generates a control variable upon execution of the test algorithm, said control unit being further operable so as to generate voltage and current thresholds with reference to the control variable generated by said setting unit, said control unit further including a protective circuit that transmits a warning signal when one of the voltage and the current of the programmable power source of the test environment measured by said measuring circuit exceeds a respective one of the voltage and current thresholds, and said setting unit is responsive to the warning signal transmitted by said protective circuit of said control unit so as to reset said control unit and so as to stop transmitting the test information.
