Abstract

Circuitry for use in testing a device includes a first measurement unit to apply a forced voltage to the device, and a second measurement unit having functionality that is disabled. The second measurement unit includes a sense path to receive a sensed voltage from the device, where the sense path connects to the first measurement unit through the second measurement unit. The first measurement unit adjusts the forced voltage based on the sensed voltage.
