Abstract

The present invention provides a test circuit and a test method for leakage current of a standard unit. The test circuit includes a plurality of basic unit structures connected in series. Each basic unit structure includes a drive circuit and a target unit circuit. There are many target unit circuit combinations a standard unit to be tested; the driving circuit is composed of a plurality of driving units, and is used to mount each of the standard units in the target unit circuit, so that the input of each standard unit in a steady state is consistent, so that The leakage current of the driving circuit is not greater than the leakage current of the target unit circuit. First test the total leakage current value of the test circuit composed of buffers and NAND gates; then replace the standard unit with a drive unit to test its total leakage current value; calculate the leakage current value of a single drive unit; finally calculate a single standard The leakage current value of the unit. The testing circuit and testing method of the standard unit leakage current of the present invention are simple and easy to operate, and can accurately and conveniently test the leakage current of the standard unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit performance testing, in particular to a testing circuit and testing method for standard unit leakage current. Background technique [0002] When designing integrated circuit chips with a process node of 0.18um and above (such as 0.35um), power consumption is a secondary factor considered in addition to speed and area. With the rapid development of integrated circuit technology, especially when entering the 65nm / 55nm process node, the number of transistors and the frequency of the clock are increasing rapidly, and the power consumption of the circuit is also increasing. Power consumption has become a major constraint on chip design. Factor is an important index to measure the performance of integrated circuits, and the power consumption problem has attracted more and more attention in the field of integrated circuit design. [0003] The power consumption of integrated circuits can be divided into...
