    摘要: A unified test structure having a large number of electronic devices under test is used to characterize both capacitance-voltage parameters (C-V) and current-voltage parameters (I-V) of the devices. The devices are arranged in an array of columns and rows, and selected by control logic which gates input/output pins that act variously as current sources, sinks, clamps, measurement ports and sense lines. The capacitance-voltage parameter is measured by taking baseline and excited current measurements for different excitation voltage frequencies, calculating current differences between the baseline and excited current measurements, and generating a linear relationship between the current differences and the different frequencies. The capacitance is then derived by dividing a slope of a line representing the linear relationship by the excitation voltage. Different electronic devices may be so tested, including transistors and interconnect structures.

    摘要: A solution for analyzing a circuit using initial charge information is provided. In particular, one or more nodes in a design for the circuit is initialized with an initial charge. The charge can comprise a non-equilibrium charge, thereby simulating the history effect, the impact of a charged particle, electro-static discharge (ESD), and/or the like. Operation of the circuit is then simulated over a set of input cycles based on the initial charge(s). To this extent, the non-equilibrium initial condition solution enables the state of the circuit to be controlled and solves the initial system based on these values. This capability is very useful to condition the circuit at a worst-case, best-case, and/or the like, status. Further, in one embodiment of the invention, a set of equations are provided to implement the non-equilibrium initial charge analysis, which provide a more efficient initialization of the circuit than current solutions.

    摘要: A method for circuit simulation using a netlist in which a first device having an unmodeled, nonlinear behavior is modified by inserting a second device which has a nonlinear response approximating the unmodeled nonlinear behavior. The first device may be for example a first transistor and the second device may be a variable current source, in particular one whose current is modeled after a floating transistor template which represents gate leakage current of the first transistor (gate-to-source or gate-to-drain). During simulation of the circuit a parameter such as a gate-to-source voltage of the second transistor is controlled to model gate leakage. The model parameters can be a function of an effective quantum mechanical oxide thickness value of a gate of the first transistor technology.
