Atomic flux divergence based current conversion scheme for signal line electromigration reliability assessment

View publication

Abstract

In this paper, we study electromigration (EM) reliability of signal lines. We propose a general model for current conversion from pulsed DC to steady DC based on the consistency of maximal atomic flux divergence. Both long and short lead lines with high frequency current are considered. The calculated effective steady DC agrees with the measured results. Our conversion scheme can be applied also to signal lines with complex current paths. © 2014 IEEE.
