Electromigration-dependent parametric yield estimation
Robert Barsky, Israel A. Wagner · 2005
We define and investigate the problem of electromigration faults caused by spot defects during the VLSI manufacturing process. Analysis is given for a simple layout, and simulations are presented and discussed for a more complicated case. It is shown that in some cases, electromigration-dependent parametric faults can make a significant contribution to the total yield estimation.
