  A high-performance, radiation-hardened, application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is under development at CERN for digitising signals from beam losses monitoring systems in harsh radiation environments. To fully characterise and validate both the analogue and digital parts of these ASICs, an automated testbed has been developed. Here we report on the components used to build this setup, its capabilities as well as the methodology of the data analysis. Focus is given to the data collection, the automation and the efficient computation methods developed to extract the merit factors of two different ASIC designs from prototype manufacturing runs.
