Abstract

Provided is a test apparatus for testing a device under test (DUT), the apparatus operating at an operating frequency that is lower than an operating frequency of the DUT. The test apparatus includes a clock source which generates a clock according to the operating frequency of the test apparatus, a clock multiplier configured to multiply the generated clock source by a multiplication number which is set according to the operating frequency of the DUT and output a first clock for the DUT, a phase converter configured to shift a phase of the generated clock according to the multiplication number and output a plurality of second clocks having different phases, and a test pattern comparator configured to sequentially collect pieces of data from the DUT by sequentially applying the plurality of second clocks having different phases.
