Abstract
Various embodiments include approaches for determining burn-in workload conditions for an integrated circuit (IC) design. Some embodiments include burn-in testing the IC design using the workload conditions. In some embodiments, a computer implemented method includes obtaining survey data about at least one application workload for an integrated circuit (IC) corresponding to an IC design; generating latch state and clocking statistics about the IC design for the at least one application workload based upon the survey data; and determining a set of burn-in workload conditions for the IC design based upon the latch state and clocking statistics about the IC design.
