A method and installation for analyzing an integrated circuit. The method includes, for a plurality of surface points of the integrated circuit, the following steps: applying a laser radiation, in one point of the surface of the integrated circuit; exciting the circuit; collecting the response of the circuit to the excitation; calculating the propagation time intervening between the excitation time and the response-collecting time; and creating an image of the integrated circuit showing a value representing the propagation time at each point of laser radiation application.

Method and installation for analyzing an integrated circuit

A magnetic-field-measuring probe includes at least one magnetoresistive or magnetoinductive sensor which is sensitive to the magnetic field along a privileged measurement axis. The probe includes: at least two magnetoresistive or magnetoinductive sensors () which are rigidly connected to one another in a position such that the privileged measurement axes thereof are parallel and offset in relation to one another in a direction that is transverse to the privileged measurement axes; and output terminals specific to each magnetoresistive or magnetoinductive sensor, in order to supply a signal that is representative of the magnetic field measured by each sensor along the privileged measurement axis thereof.
