A method for performing a bias temperature instability test on a device includes performing a first stress on the device. After the first stress, a first measurement is performed to determine a first parameter of the device. After the first measurement, a second stress is performed on the device, wherein only the first parameter is measured between the first stress and the second stress. The method further includes performing a second measurement to determine a second parameter of the device after the second stress. The second parameter is different from the first parameter.
