Abstract
An off-chip monitor is presented that measures the transient supply current of CMOS ICs and provides the charge delivered to the circuit. The monitor is designed to be placed on the automatic test equipment board fixture and automate transient current supply testing. Experimental results demonstrate up to 1 GHz bandwidth operation
