The cost of DFM (design-for-manufacturability) is getting higher and higher. In this thesis, we propose a method to evaluate the yield of an operational amplifier and to optimize the opamp's manufacturing yield in the existence of process variations, with the designer provided circuit schematic, set of circuit design variables, and the design variable constraints. A yield analysis and optimization tool is implemented and the idea is validated with an example opamp. The proposed approach is not restricted to amplifiers and can be used to optimize the design of other types of circuits as well.Table of Contents List of Figures v List of Tables vi Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Corner Models and Monte Carlo Simulation 1 1.2 Past Researches on Yield Optimization 2 1.3 The Proposed Yield Optimization Technique 3 1.4 Thesis Organization 3 Chapter 2 Preliminaries 4 2.1 Sources of Variation 4 2.2 Past Related Works 8 Chapter 3 The Proposed Method 17 3.1 Program Flow 17 3.2 Classification Tree Construction 18 3.3 Design Adjustment 22 Chapter 4 Simulation Results 27 4.1 Environment and Configuration 27 4.2 Data Structure 27 4.3 Experimental Results 29 Chapter 5 Conclusions and Future Work 34 5.1 Conclusions 34 5.2 Future Work 34 REFERENCES 361331411 bytesapplication/pdfen-US良率最佳化yield optimization操作放大器的良率最佳化技術A Yield Optimization Technique for Operational Amplifierthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/57524/1/ntu-95-R93943109-1.pdf
