Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a reference voltage generator configured to output a reference voltage. The reference voltage generator includes a boosting code circuit and a first digital-analog converter (DAC). The boosting code circuit includes a first boosting pulse generator configured to generate a first boosting pulse and a first boosting code controller configured to output a first boosting code based on a reference code and the first boosting pulse. The first DAC is configured to output the reference voltage by converting the first boosting code. The first boosting code has a first code value different from the reference code when the first boosting pulse has a first logic level, and the first boosting code has the same value as the reference code when the first boosting pulse has a second logic level opposite to the first logic level.
Abstract:
A semiconductor chip, a test system, and a method of testing the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip includes a pulse generator configured to generate a test pulse in response to a test request; a logic chain comprising a plurality of logic devices serially connected to each other and transferring the test pulse sequentially; and a detector configured to detect a logic level of an output signal of each of the logic devices and output a detection result indicating a degree of an inter-symbol interference (ISI).
