A new approach for faster IC analysis with PICA: STPC-3D

To reduce acquisition time with PICA (Picosecond Imaging Circuit Analysis), we have developed a Spatial Temporal Photon Correlation approach (STPC-3D) which reduces acquisition from hours to minutes. Applications are presented on several devices (i.e., Azuma 0.18 /spl mu/m-1.8 V, Lazarus 0.18 /spl mu/m-1.8 V and STm 0.12 /spl mu/m-1.2 V) showing transistors and their commutations.
