Transient Signal Analysis (TSA) is a parametric device testing technique based on the analysis of dynamic (transient) current (iDDT) drawn by the core logic from the power supply ...
Parametric yield loss due to variability can be effectively reduced by both design-time optimization strategies and by adjusting circuit parameters to the realizations of variable...
