ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device tester includes a parametric measurement unit (PMU) stage for producing a DC test signal and a pin electronics (PE) stage for producing an AC test signal to test a semiconductor device. A driver circuit is capable of providing a version of the DC test signal and a version of the AC test signal to the semiconductor device.
