    Abstract: A type of device (which can be deployed in a semiconductor manufacturing line) determining whether a device-under-test is generating burst noise. A transimpedance amplifier converts a current-based noise signal to a voltage based noise signal to apply the following tests aimed at determining the presence of burst noise: (i) sufficiently wide pulse width in the noise signal; (ii) sufficiently random pulse width in the noise signal; (iii) sufficiently wide pulse separation in the noise signal; (iv) sufficiently random pulse separation in the noise signal; and (v) sufficiently large pulse amplitude (or magnitude) in the noise signal.
