Abstract
For testing or for characterizing output drivers of output circuits of high-speed semiconductor memory devices under conditions close to an application, scan elements are provided at the inputs of the output circuits. The scan elements in each case have a register function and are cascaded to form a scan chain. Via the scan chain, test data signals are applied to the inputs of the output circuits whilst bypassing a memory cell array of the semiconductor memory devices. The characterization of data signals of the high-speed semiconductor memory devices that are output by the output circuits requires only a test memory controller not connected to the data signal terminals and a passive load simulation of the application memory controller.
