Abstract :
A new device reliability evaluation method is reported for the circuit application under voltage overdrive. Through an appropriate methodology shown in this paper, the 3.3V CMOS oxide reliability can be passed the specification and well characterized, even under 8V at drain side overdrive in some circuit application.
