Abstract

An apparatus that moves stimulus data and response data between a memory and a device under test (DUT) over a plurality of data transfer banks. In a first mode the data transfer banks output the stimulus data to the DUT as respective independent banks of serial stimulus data channels, and write the response data into the memory responsive to data provided as respective independent banks of channels of serial data from the DUT. In a second mode the data transfer banks output the stimulus data to the DUT as a single bank of combined serial stimulus data channels, and write the response data into the memory responsive to the data provided as a combined single bank of channels of serial data from the DUT.
