Abstract: This paper deals with the estimation of the median time-to-failure (MTF) due to electromigration in the power and ground busses of CMOS VLSI circuits. In our previous work [3, 4], we presented a novel technique for MTF estimation based on a stochastic current waveform model. In [6], we argued that including the variance waveform of the current, in addition to its expected waveform derived in [3, 4], would further improve the accuracy of the MTF estimate. In this paper, we present a novel... (Update)
