  • Abstract
    With the trend from micro- to nanoelectronics the control of production deviations can not keep pace with the reduction of the absolute sizes of semiconductor devices. This results in an increased number of circuits beyond specification. The presented symbolic methods for reducing behavioral models with parameter variations assist designing and optimizing robust electronic circuits to increase the yield of produced circuits.
