We at UC Santa Cruz have just received a grant to purchase test
equipment for VLSI.  I have some ideas what I want (the grant budget
was based on a system that I think will meet my needs), but would like
to avoid making a $100,000 mistake.  If anyone knows anything about
medium-price test equipment (say $100,000 or less) for digital chips
in the 80MHz and above range, please let me know.

It would be useful if the tester could do Iddq testing on power and
ground pins, and I'd like to be able to present fairly long vectors at
real data rates of 80MHz and above.

Thanks for any help!
