Abstract
An apparatus and a method are disclosed for package level burn-in test circuit in semiconductor devices. The apparatus includes a package burn-in register, a test voltage generator for the package level burn-in test, a burn-in master signal generator, and a burn-in test circuit. The package burn-in register stores a package burn-in set-order from the outside and generates a package burn-in set-signal. The test voltage generator generates burn-in test voltages in response to the package burn-in set-signal and to address signals through first address terminals from the outside. The burn-in master signal generator generates a burn-in master signal by combining and receiving the second address signal form first address terminals, a wafer burn-in enable signal from a control signal input terminal, and the package burn-in set-signal. After receiving the burn-in master signal, multiple address signals from multiple third address terminals, and the test voltages for the package level burn-in test, the burn-in test circuit performs a package level burn-in test.
