Problems solved by technology

So, the problem is that these errors prevent the higher accuracy measurement of the gradation output voltage, which is necessary for liquid crystal drivers with 256, 512 or more gradation levels
Thus, the above-mentioned solution of using a dedicated comparator which increases the price of the tester is not desirable.
The choice of a dedicated comparator also poses the problem that such dedicated comparators are difficult to obtain on a special order basis, thus causing problems during emergency maintenance services

Abstract

A semiconductor testing apparatus and a semiconductor testing method are provided which permit an apparatus having an inexpensive configuration to perform, with precision, the acceptance-or-rejection determination and measurement test of a semiconductor integrated circuit having a large number of output terminals each for outputting a multi-gradation level output voltage. The semiconductor testing apparatus comprises output voltage testing means and comparison voltage generation data inputting means. The output voltage testing means comprises test voltage inputting means, comparison voltage generating means, a high level comparator, a low level comparator, and comparison result outputting means.
