Abstract

A voltage-current conversion circuit for automatic test equipment (ATE) or a tester converts a low voltage, low current output from a power supply of the tester to a high voltage and/or high current output to be coupled to a device under test (DUT) while maintaining the sense capability of the tester power supply. In some embodiments, the voltage-current conversion circuit is implemented as a current only conversion circuit.
