Techno-economic modeling for evaluating and directing new technology development

Burk C., Burk Engineering LLC, US

Techno-economic modeling (TEM) is a valuable tool for connecting R&D, engineering, and business. By linking process parameters to financial metrics, businesses can better understand the factors affecting the profitability of their projects. TEM is useful [...]

Application of Multi-frequency Test and Neural Network to Fault Diagnosis in Analog Circuits

Wang C., Wang H., Ye Y., Liang H-L, Wang C., Wang H., Mei J., He J., Chan M., PKU-HKUST Shenzhen-Hongkong Institution, CN

In this paper, the multi-frequency test and neural networks (NNs) are applied to fault diagnosis in analog circuits. The reason is that multi-frequency test can maximize differences between the failure and the normal circuit’s response, [...]

Compact Model Application to Statistical/Probabilistic Technology Variations

Zhou X., Zhu G., Srikanth M., Selvakumar R., Yan Y., Chandra W., Zhang J., Lin S., Wei C., Chen Z., Nanyang Technological University, SG

ULSI systems are designed by electronic design automation (EDA) tools with performance figures-of-merit (FOM) measured by SPICE circuit simulation, in which nonlinear transistors are modeled by the compact model (CM) with its nominal set of [...]

Parameterized Structural Capacitance Behavioral Modeling for TFT-LCD Panel

Huang H.M., Li Y., National Chiao Tung University, TW

Thin film transistors (TFTS) find wide usage in active matrix liquid crystal displays. The basic principle of operation of the LCD panel is to control the transparency of each pixel portion by bus lines to [...]

Sensitivity Calculation Model Using the Finite-Difference Method

Mueller C., Scheinert G., Uhlmann H., Technical University of Ilmenau, DE

The paper describes an approach to general-purpose design sensitivity analysis for electromagnetic devices. Micro system technology often requires the assessment of manufacturing techniques or effects of tolerances. Emphasis is therefore put on the adaptability to [...]
