Along with the advanced manufacturing process of the chip, the data transmission rate of the chip is faster and faster, and the time sequence relation requirement among the functional pins of the chip is higher and higher, and the quality of the chip is generally tested by connecting the signal transmission channels of the digital test module with the functional pins of the chip.
However, delay differences exist between the signal transmission channels of the digital test module and the connection of the functional pins of the chip, and the signal transmission channels cannot test the functional pins of the chip at the same time, so that the accuracy of the chip test is low.
