Abstract
In a method of circuit yield analysis, the method includes: detecting a plurality of failed samples respectively located at a plurality of failure regions in a multi-dimensional parametric space; clustering the failed samples to identify the failure regions; filtering features of the failed samples to determine a parameter component that is a non-principal component in affecting circuit yield; applying a dimensional reduction method on a dimension corresponding to the parameter component; and constructing a final importance sampling (IS) distribution function using a mixed Gaussian (mGaussian) function corresponding to all of the failure regions containing a rare failure event.
