Abstract

A method for indicating a probing target for a fabricated electronic circuit including: generating an electronic, three-dimensional model based on manufacturing layout information of a fabricated circuit; obtaining, with a vision system, visual environment information for the fabricated circuit; scaling and orienting the three-dimensional model by a scaler and mapper based on the visual environment information; overlaying the three-dimensional model with the visual environment information to produce a correlated image; obtaining an identification of a desired network node of the fabricated circuit; and indicating a probing target, the probing target corresponding to the desired network node of the fabricated circuit.
