1. A testing apparatus for providing per pin level setting, the testing apparatus comprising:
- a pin driver and pin receiver having an input, and an output connected to a tested circuit;
a filter circuit connected to the input of the pin driver and pin receiver; and
a control unit comprising;
a field programmable gate array (FPGA) for providing a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal; and
at least one inverter having an input terminal in direct contact with the FPGA for receiving the PWM signal, and an output terminal in direct contact with the filter circuit, so that the filter circuit receives the PWM signal form the output terminal of the at least one inverter and outputs at least one direct current (DC) voltage to the input of the pin driver and pin receiver,wherein the FPGA of the control unit is connected to the filter circuit via the inverter, and the FPGA of the control unit does not receive any signal fed back from the filter circuit.
