Popis: Chip level electromigration (EM) reliability is determined by: 1) the element level EM failure probability used for design guideline generation; and 2) the distribution of EM elements against design limits. Balancing these two factors is critical for a chip design to achieve the best performance while maintaining chip level EM reliability. This paper discusses the relationship between element level and chip level EM failure probability and provides examples of EM evaluation of chip designs.
