Abstract
A method of estimating a breakdown voltage of a silicon dioxide film includes; generating breakdown voltage information associated with first test dies selected from among test dies, generating a breakdown voltage estimation model by updating a parameter of a neural network model based on the breakdown voltage information, applying test voltages to second test die selected from among the test dies and distinct from the first dies and receiving currents levels for current generated by the second test dies in response to the test voltages, wherein the test voltages have respective levels lower than levels of breakdown voltages for the first test dies, and estimating breakdown voltages of the second test dies using the breakdown voltage estimation model in relation to the currents levels.
