ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, method, and program product are provided to predict yield loss associated with performance screens or leakage screens. A leakage model is correlated to an on-chip measurement. Current limited yields are determined from the leakage model. A database is formed relating performance sigma cut-points to the circuit limited yields. A product is quoted based on the circuit limited yield for one of the performance sigma cut-points taken from the database. The quote is tied to the product design and testing.
