So produce multiple sub-control signal SC by the signal of the string types such as pulse signal SCLK, start signal SS and switching signal SDI, just can solve the problem of the control signal number deficiency of traditional test board (the V5400 tester table of the Versa tester series of for example Advantest), and then reduce testing cost.In addition, because whether each element under test receives the information that voltage to be measured can be carried under one's arms by switching signal SDI determine, therefore the state between each sub-control signal SC is separate, can must not there is just like sub-control signal on the same group as known technology the problem of identical state, and can freely stop providing test voltage for specific element under test, to avoid influencing each other between element under test and reduce the yield of product.
For instance, Fig. 2 A illustrates the schematic diagram into the proving installation of another embodiment of the present invention.Please refer to Fig. 2 A, proving installation 200 can for example be applied to the V5400 tester table of the Versa tester series of Advantest, and so not as limit, V5400 tester table originally can provide at most 16 control signals for element under test.In the present embodiment, switch control unit 104 produces 32 sub-control signal SC1-1, SC1-2, SC2-1 according to pulse signal SCLK, start signal SS and switching signal SDI ... SC16-2, power module 106 comprises selects switch unit 202 and multiple power-supply unit M1-M16, wherein select switch unit 202 to couple switch control unit 104 and power-supply unit M1-M16, select switch unit 202 to determine to make one or more power-supply unit output test voltages to element under test according to sub-control signal SC1-1-SC16-2.
Specifically, the switch control unit 104 of the present embodiment can be as shown in Figure 2 A, comprise 32 switch sw1-1, sw1-2, sw2-1 ... sw16-2, wherein one end of each switch is coupled to bias voltage Vbias, the other end couples the power-supply unit corresponding with it, and the conducting state of switch sw1-1-sw16-2 is controlled by respectively the sub-control signal SC1-1-SC16-2 corresponding with it.As shown in Figure 2 B, switch control unit 104 has 3 input ends and 32 output terminals, wherein 3 input end return pulse signal SCLK, start signal SS and switching signal SDI respectively, 32 output terminals are connected to respectively switch sw1-1-sw16-2, to export sub-control signal SC1-1-SC16-2 to switch sw1-1-sw16-2, control its conducting state.In addition, proving installation 200 comprises a capacitor C b, and it is coupled between bias voltage Vbias and ground connection.
Specifically, the schematic diagram of pulse signal SCLK, start signal SS and switching signal SDI can be as shown in Figure 3.In the time that start signal SS transfers high voltage logic current potential to, switch control unit 104 just starts according to pulse signal SCLK sampling switching signal SDI, sequentially to produce sub-control signal SC1-1-SC16-2.As shown in Figure 3, according to user's setting, switching signal SDI can sequentially convert the state of its voltage logic current potential, with the switch that indicates whether that conducting is corresponding.For example in the present embodiment, when the switching signal SDI that configuration switch control module 104 is sampled to according to pulse signal SCLK is low logic voltage current potential (L), its corresponding switch is closed condition.On the contrary, if when the switching signal SDI that switch control unit 104 is sampled to according to pulse signal SCLK is high voltage logic current potential (H), its corresponding switch is conducting state.As in the present embodiment, the 5th, 16,19,24,26,29,30 switching signal SDI that pulse is sampled to that switch control unit 104 only starts to count in the time transferring high voltage logic current potential to by start signal SS are high voltage logic current potential, and all the other are all low voltage potential.That is to say that only having the corresponding switch sw3-1 of sub-control signal SC3-1, SC8-2, SC10-1, SC12-2, SC13-2, SC15-1 and SC15-2, sw8-2, sw10-1, sw12-2, sw13-2, sw15-1 and sw15-2 is conducting state, all the other are all closed condition.
