Abstract
A method of characterizing a die can include correlating, using a processor, a static voltage profile of a die under test in wafer form with a plurality of test static voltage profiles. The plurality of test static voltage profiles can be associated with dynamic performance profiles. The method further can include predicting dynamic performance of the die under test according to the dynamic performance profile associated with a test static voltage profile that is correlated with the static voltage profile.
