Abstract
Various embodiments include approaches for analyzing a customer design for an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). In some cases, an approach includes: determining performance requirements of the customer design; querying a test screen database for the performance requirements of the customer design, the test screen database having failure thresholds and associated test screens for detecting the failure thresholds for a set of ASIC devices; generating a filter database including select failure thresholds and associated test screens for the performance requirements of the customer design; and selecting a set of test screens from the filter database based upon a yield cost criteria in forming the ASIC.
