Zusammenfassung:A system is disclosed, including an interface to a DUT and a testing apparatus. The DUT includes a first plurality of temperature sensing circuits. The testing apparatus may store a plurality of control values. Each control value may depend on at least two calibration values of corresponding temperature sensing circuits of a second plurality of temperature sensing circuits. The testing apparatus may generate a plurality of calibration values for the DUT. Each calibration value corresponds to one of the first plurality of temperature sensing circuits. The testing apparatus may determine a plurality of test values for the DUT. The testing apparatus may calculate a probability value, and repeat generation of the plurality of calibration values upon determining that the probability value is less than a predetermined threshold value. The probability value corresponds to a likelihood that the plurality of calibration values is accurate.
