1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a first component to communicate at a first frequency, the first components comprising a receiving component to receive a test signal at the first frequency and to output information derived from the test signal;
a data generating component coupled to receive the information from the first component and to generate test data responsive to the information; and
a second component to transmit test data based on the information to at a second frequency different than the first frequency.

Abstract
Systems and methods of testing integrated circuits are disclosed. The systems include a test module configured to operate between automated testing equipment and an integrated circuit to be tested. The testing interface is configured to test the integrated circuit at a higher slew rate than the slew rate at which signals are received from the automated testing equipment.
