Abstract
Disclosed is a test module ( ) for comparative testing of an electronic component ( ) and a simulation module ( ) that simulates the function of the electronic component ( ) essentially in the form of a software program. The test module ( ) has an input/output interface to an external module ( ) interacting with the electronic component ( ) to be tested and also to the electronic component ( ) and the simulation module ( ). Equivalent input interfaces of the electronic component ( ) and of the simulation module ( ) are connected to one another by the test module ( ). In addition, the test module ( ) has a comparator ( ) for comparing output signals from the electronic component ( ) and from the simulation module ( ) and has a memory log ( ) linked to the comparator ( ). The inventive test module ( ) permits a rapid comparative test of the functions of the electronic component ( ) and of the simulation module ( ).
