Abstract
Fluctuations of three device parameters (T-ox, N-sub, Delta L) based on pro cess fluctuations are taken as cause of device/circuit performances. In-lin e measured device parameters are approximated by Gaussian functions; and th eir 2 sigma values are assigned as boundaries of the performance fluctuatio ns. Measured distributions both Fur device and curcuit performances are suc cessfully reproduced.
