Abstract
A method of circuit yield analysis for evaluating rare failure events includes performing initial sampling to detect failed samples respectively located at one or more failure regions in a multi-dimensional parametric space, generating a distribution of failed samples at discrete values along each dimension, identifying the failed samples, performing a transform to project the failed samples into all dimensions in a transform space, and classifying a type of failure region for each dimension in the parametric space.
