ABSTRACT:
A test machine (10) is provided with a integrating circuit (102) so that when a integrated circuit (12) is inserted in the test machine an external feedback loop between an input (120a) and an output (124a) of a comparator (122) in the integrated circuit under test is established. Thus an input voltage of the comparator (122) oscillates around a threshold level of the comparator (122). A test result is determined dependent on an average value of an oscillating voltage in the feedback loop. In an embodiment the feedback loop is realized with a digital test tester (100, 104, 106) with an added analog integrating circuit added to its output (14).
