In this work, we present using random forests statistical learning to analyze post-silicon delay test data. We introduce the concept of parametric delay test as a new perspective for extracting more information from delay test. First, a methodology for outlier identification is presented to aid defect characterization of initial sample chips. Second, a methodology for production test is presented, including automated pattern-set reduction analysis. Finally, a strategy for adaptive test is presented.
