In addition, the paper introduces several methods for normalizing data and selecting the optimum number of clusters in order to classify data. Results and conclusions are given to indicate the feasibility of the suggested fault location method.","PeriodicalId":360389,"journal":{"name":"ICM 2001 Proceedings.

The principle of this method is based on the comparison between two models which give drain saturation voltage evolution against gate voltage Vd/sub sat/(Vg) continuously. The results obtained by this technique have shown better agreement with measurement data and have allow at the same time to determine the validity domain of Sodini's law.","PeriodicalId":360389,"journal":{"name":"ICM 2001 Proceedings.

This method compares the real temperature field with the standard field, suitable for the specified energy state of the system. A method of temperature sensor placement strategy is presented as well. This placement method is proposed for fault diagnosis and fault localisation in ICs. An algorithm based on mutual dependencies of average temperatures of selected sub-areas of the IC in order to locate failure is described. Simulation results of the sensor placement strategy and fault diagnosis and localisation are presented. Statistical analyses of the yield of the testing method are shown.","PeriodicalId":360389,"journal":{"name":"ICM 2001 Proceedings.
