Abstract: A tester including an interface configured to interface with an electronic device and a logic circuit. The logic circuit includes a pattern generator and at least one finite-state machine and is configured to sequentially acquire read data from the electronic device at sequential testing points of a testing range for evaluating an operating parameter of the electronic device or the tester until a set of consecutive passing points having a first passing point and a last passing point is identified, in response to identifying the first passing point, write data within the logic circuit of the tester identifying the first passing point, in response to identifying the last passing point, write data within the logic circuit of the tester identifying the last passing point, and output only data identifying the first passing point and data identifying the last passing point to a software application.
