CORS (Circuit Oxide Reliability Simulator) is a fully integrated part of BERT (BErkeley Reliability Tools). CORS projects the probability of oxide breakdown induced circuit failure as a function of operating time, temperature, power supply voltage and input waveforms. CORS can also simulate the effects of burn-in on subsequent yield and lifetime. The user is required to provide the simulator with test capacitor breakdown statistics.
