grated circuits (ASICs). Our methodology is based on the au-
tomatic control of all laboratory equipment and the data pro-
cessing with Matlab. The ASIC, or digital system, is connected 
to controllable test equipment to generate patterns and col-

that provides the Matlab script controlling the equipment, test 
process, making the analysis of the results and supervising the 
whole process, can be easily adapted to different experiments 
and ASIC features. The test of a piecewise affine (PWA) ASIC 
controller has been used to experimentally prove the auto-
