Abstract
On a 45nm logic product that suffered special pattern function failure, electrical failure analysis identified the failure as soft failure and localized the failure addresses. PVC (Passive Voltage Contrast) was used to narrow down suspected process steps to M1 or below layers, FIB (Focus Ion Beam) and TEM (Transmission Electronic Microscope) approaches were used to identify the actual root cause and failure mechanism.
