Description
Summary:Prior to designing an MVL system on a single silicon chip, it is necessary to perform a feasibility study on the marginal reliability aspects of the system to be implemented. In this paper, the expected tolerances in basic CCD gate configurations are investigated by a statistical approach to the problem for which the Monte Carlo analysis method has been chosen. The expected tolerances were compared with actual data obtained from measurements. As any MVL function can be synthesized by means of these configurations, the tolerance behaviour of a function can be investigated by a general applicable analysis method based on the Monte Carlo tolerance analysis approach. The predecessor circuit was used to illustrate the procedure followed.
