[0050] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and not to limit the present application.
[0051] In the field of chips, the performance and power consumption of integrated circuits are increasingly required. Generally, at least one transistor with high reliability is provided in an integrated circuit to meet the performance and power consumption requirements of the integrated circuit. Therefore, it is particularly important to study the reliability of the transistor in the integrated circuit. Taking the negative bias temperature instability of the transistor as an example, in the process of studying the negative bias temperature instability of the transistor, the threshold voltage initial value of the transistor needs to be determined first. However, in the process of determining the threshold voltage initial value of the transistor in the related art, there is a problem that the correctness of the determined threshold voltage initial value is low. Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a threshold voltage initial value determination method, which can improve the correctness of the determined threshold voltage initial value in the process of determining the threshold voltage initial value of the transistor.
[0052] The threshold voltage initial value determination method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be applied to Figure 1 The threshold voltage initial value determination system is shown. The threshold voltage initial value determination system can include a computer device and a chip to be tested, and at least one transistor is provided on the chip to be tested; Figure 1Take n chips to be tested as an example (transistors on each chip to be tested are not shown). Optionally, the computer device described above can be a personal computer, a desktop computer, a notebook computer, a smart phone, a smart bracelet, an Ipad, and the like device having a data processing function; the chip to be tested described above can be a processor chip, a memory chip, a memory control chip, an encryption chip, an audio processing chip, a power management chip, and the like, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this. Optionally, the transistor described above can be a depletion mode metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), which can be an N-type MOSFET or a P-type MOSFET; in the embodiments of the present application, a MOSFET is taken as a carbon nanotube MOSFET as an example for description. Wherein, the computer device and the chip to be tested can be in communication connection, and the connection mode can be WiFi, mobile network or Bluetooth connection and the like mode. The following embodiments take the computer device as the execution subject of the threshold voltage initial value determination method to introduce the specific process of the threshold voltage initial value determination method.
[0053] As shown in Figure 2 , a flowchart of the threshold voltage initial value determination method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown, and the method can be implemented by the following steps:
[0054] S101, a plurality of preliminary transfer characteristics of the target transistor when an initial bidirectional voltage waveform is applied are obtained. Wherein, the initial bidirectional voltage waveform is determined according to the starting input voltage and the terminal input voltage of the target transistor.
[0055] In the embodiments of the present application, the target transistor can be any transistor in the chip to be tested, and the target transistor lacks a good interface of the silicon substrate and the silicon dioxide insulating layer, and has more interface defects. In actual application, for the transistor with more defects, the hysteresis method can be used to measure the transfer characteristics of the transistor, wherein the voltage waveform applied to the transistor by using the hysteresis method is a bidirectional voltage waveform, as shown in Figure 3 , which is a bidirectional voltage waveform diagram.
[0056] It should be noted that during the measurement of the transfer characteristics of the transistor, the gate voltage Vg of the transistor is not stopped after being scanned from the starting input voltage Vgstart to the terminal input voltage Vgstop, but continues to be scanned from the terminal input voltage to the starting input voltage, and the application of a bidirectional voltage waveform is completed. In the embodiments of the present application, the starting input voltage Vgstart of the target transistor can be the rated working voltage of the target transistor.
[0057] Specifically, during the process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor, the computer device can acquire a plurality of preliminary transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform. The initial bidirectional voltage waveform is determined according to a starting input voltage and a terminal input voltage of the target transistor. In the embodiments of the present application, the starting input voltage of the target transistor can be the working voltage of the target transistor; and the terminal input voltage of the target transistor can be the voltage of any point in the cutoff region and the sub-threshold region of the complete transfer characteristic of the target transistor, but in the embodiments of the present application, the terminal input voltage of the target transistor can be the voltage of any point in the saturation region of the complete transfer characteristic of the target transistor.
[0058] The initial bidirectional voltage waveform can be applied to the target transistor in the following manner: the computer device sends the starting input voltage and the terminal input voltage to the power supply device, instructs the power supply device to determine the initial bidirectional voltage waveform according to the starting input voltage and the terminal input voltage, and applies the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor.
[0059] S102, in the case where the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, adjusting the terminal input voltage to obtain an adjusted terminal input voltage, and determining an adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform of the target transistor according to the adjusted terminal input voltage and the starting input voltage.
[0060] In actual applications, the computer device can pre-train an algorithm model, and input each preliminary transfer characteristic into the algorithm model in sequence. The algorithm model outputs the stability state of the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic after judging the stability of the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic. In the case where the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, the terminal input voltage is adjusted to obtain an adjusted terminal input voltage, and an adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform of the target transistor is determined according to the adjusted terminal input voltage and the starting input voltage.
[0061] The terminal input voltage can be adjusted to obtain the adjusted terminal input voltage in the following manner: the terminal input voltage is subjected to arithmetic operation processing to obtain the adjusted terminal input voltage. Alternatively, the arithmetic operation processing can be at least one of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
[0062] Alternatively, the voltage adjustment amount can be a negative value, and the absolute value of the voltage adjustment amount can be less than the rated working voltage of the target transistor, but in the embodiments of the present application, the voltage adjustment amount is equal to the negative rated working voltage, that is, the absolute value of the voltage adjustment amount is equal to the rated working voltage of the target transistor.
[0063] In one embodiment, the step of adjusting the termination input voltage in S102 to obtain the adjusted termination input voltage can include: summing the termination input voltage and the voltage adjustment amount to obtain the adjusted termination input voltage.
[0064] S103, obtaining a plurality of adjusted transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform is applied to the target transistor, and determining the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor according to each adjusted transfer characteristic when the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0065] Specifically, in the process of reapplying the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor, the computer device can obtain a plurality of adjusted transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform is applied to the target transistor. The adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform is similar to the waveform shown in the following figure. Figure 3
[0066] The computer device can apply the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor by sending the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform to the power supply device and instructing the power supply device to apply the adjustment bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor.
[0067] Further, the computer device can input each adjusted transfer characteristic into an algorithm model in sequence, the algorithm model judges the stability of the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic and outputs the stable state of the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic, and determines the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor according to each adjusted transfer characteristic when the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0068] In actual application, the computer device can use curve extrapolation method, linear extrapolation method, derivative method, quadratic function fitting method, etc. to process each adjusted transfer characteristic to obtain the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor. In the embodiment of the present application, the computer device can use constant current method to process each adjusted transfer characteristic to obtain the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor.
[0069] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application obtain multiple preliminary transfer characteristics of a target transistor when the target transistor is applied with an initial bidirectional voltage waveform, the initial bidirectional voltage waveform is determined according to a starting input voltage and a terminal input voltage of the target transistor, in a case where hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, the terminal input voltage is adjusted to obtain an adjusted terminal input voltage, and the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform of the target transistor is determined according to the adjusted terminal input voltage and the starting input voltage, multiple adjusted transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the target transistor is applied with the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform are obtained, and in a case where hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state, a threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor is determined according to each adjusted transfer characteristic; the above method can change the bidirectional voltage waveform applied to the target transistor by adjusting the terminal input voltage of the target transistor, so that in a case where hysteresis of the transfer characteristic of the target transistor is in a stable state, the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor with higher precision is obtained based on the transfer characteristic in the stable state, to support the research on the negative bias temperature instability of the target transistor; meanwhile, the above method does not need to involve complex algorithms, thereby being capable of reducing the complexity of determining the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor, speeding up the determination of the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor, and improving the efficiency of determining the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor.
[0070] The process of obtaining the multiple preliminary transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform is described below. In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 the step of obtaining the multiple preliminary transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform in S101 can be implemented in the following manner:
[0071] S111, in the process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor multiple times, the output current and the input voltage of the target transistor are measured.
[0072] Specifically, in the process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor multiple times, the computer device can send a measurement instruction to the measurement device, instructing the measurement device to start synchronously measuring the output current Id (A) and the input voltage Vg (V) of the target transistor. In addition, the computer device can also output a measurement instruction, instructing a user to synchronously measure the output current and the input voltage of the target transistor through the measurement device. Wherein, at the same time, the output current of the target transistor is one-to-one corresponding to the input voltage of the target transistor.
[0073] It should be noted that, applying an initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor can complete a measurement, and obtain a corresponding relationship data between the output current and the input voltage of the target transistor. In the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of sets of corresponding relationship data obtained by applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform multiple times are taken as the measurement results.
[0074] S121, constructing each preliminary transfer characteristic according to the measurement results obtained in each process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform.
[0075] In actual application, one set of corresponding relationship data in the measurement results can generate one transfer characteristic curve, i.e., one preliminary transfer characteristic.
[0076] The technical solution in the embodiment of the present application measures the output current and the input voltage of the target transistor in the process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor multiple times, and constructs each preliminary transfer characteristic according to the measurement results obtained in each process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform. The above method can construct the transfer characteristic of the target transistor only by measuring the output current and the input voltage of the target transistor, and the process is relatively simple, without the need of complex algorithm, thereby accelerating the acquisition speed of the transfer characteristic of the target transistor.
[0077] In one embodiment, the preliminary transfer characteristic includes a first curve and a second curve; before executing the steps in the above S200, the above method can further include the following steps as shown in the following S100: Figure 5
[0078] S104, determining that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in a stable state, in a case that the differences between different first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic are all within a preset difference range, the differences between different second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic are all within a difference range, and the differences between the first curve and the second curve in each preliminary transfer characteristic are all the same.
[0079] It should be noted that, the preliminary transfer characteristic includes a first curve and a second curve, and since the initial bidirectional voltage waveform is symmetrical based on the termination input voltage, correspondingly, the starting point of the first curve and the starting point of the second curve are the same, and the end point of the first curve and the end point of the second curve are the same.
[0080] The difference between each pair of first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, which means that the difference between each pair of first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is almost 0, or the first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic are basically consistent. The difference between each pair of second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, which means that the difference between each pair of second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is almost 0, or the second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic are basically consistent. Meanwhile, for any preliminary transfer characteristic, the difference between the first curve and the second curve in the preliminary transfer characteristic is the same.
[0081] Specifically, in the case that the difference between different first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, the difference between different second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a difference range, and the difference between the first curve and the second curve in each preliminary transfer characteristic is the same, it can be determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0082] S105, otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0083] In the case that any one of the three conditions that the difference between different first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, the difference between different second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a difference range, and the difference between the first curve and the second curve in each preliminary transfer characteristic is the same is not met, it can be determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0084] The technical solution in the embodiment of the present application determines that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in a stable state in the case that the difference between different first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, the difference between different second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a difference range, and the difference between the first curve and the second curve in each preliminary transfer characteristic is the same, and otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state. The above method does not need to involve complex algorithms, thereby reducing the complexity of determining the stability of the hysteresis of the preliminary transfer characteristic, speeding up the determination of the hysteresis stability, and improving the efficiency of determining the hysteresis stability. Meanwhile, the above method does not need human intervention, thereby reducing the participation error and improving the accuracy of the determined hysteresis stability of the preliminary transfer characteristic.
[0085] In one embodiment, the adjusted transfer characteristic includes a third curve and a fourth curve. Before performing the step of determining the threshold voltage initial value of the target transistor according to each adjusted transfer characteristic in S103, the above method can further include the following steps:
[0086] In a case that the difference between different third curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the preset difference range, the difference between different fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the difference range, and the difference between the third curve and the fourth curve in each adjusted transfer characteristic is the same, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state; otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0087] In actual applications, the starting point of the third curve and the starting point of the fourth curve are the same, and the ending point of the third curve and the ending point of the fourth curve are the same.
[0088] In a case that the difference between different third curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the preset difference range, the difference between different fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the difference range, and the difference between the third curve and the fourth curve in each adjusted transfer characteristic is the same, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state; otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0089] Specifically, in a case that the difference between different third curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the preset difference range, the difference between different fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the difference range, and the difference between the third curve and the fourth curve in each adjusted transfer characteristic is the same, it can be determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0090] Meanwhile, in a case that any one of the following conditions is not met: the difference between different third curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the preset difference range, the difference between different fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic is within the difference range, and the difference between the third curve and the fourth curve in each adjusted transfer characteristic is the same, it can be determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0091] In the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application, in the case that the differences between different third curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic are within the preset difference range, the differences between different fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic are within the difference range, and the differences between the third curves and the fourth curves in each adjusted transfer characteristic are all the same, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in a stable state, otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state. The foregoing method does not need to involve complex algorithms, thereby reducing the complexity of determining the hysteresis stability of the adjusted transfer characteristic, speeding up the determination of the hysteresis stability, and improving the efficiency of determining the hysteresis stability. Meanwhile, the foregoing method does not need to involve manual participation, thereby reducing the participation error and improving the accuracy of the determined hysteresis stability of the adjusted transfer characteristic.
[0092] In some scenarios, after measuring the transfer characteristic of the target transistor twice, the hysteresis of the transfer characteristic is still in an unstable state, at which time at least one adjustment needs to be made to the bidirectional voltage waveform applied to the target transistor to re-measure the latest transfer characteristic of the target transistor until the hysteresis of the latest transfer characteristic is in a stable state. The process of obtaining the latest transfer characteristic in a stable state in the case that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state is described below. In an embodiment, after performing the step of obtaining the multiple adjusted transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform is applied in S103 described above, the foregoing method can further include: Figure 6 as shown in the figure, the foregoing method can further include:
[0093] S106, in the case that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, detecting whether the variation trends of the threshold voltages obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform and the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform respectively are the same.
[0094] It should be noted that in the process of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor, the transfer characteristic of the target transistor can be measured multiple times to obtain multiple preliminary transfer characteristics; each preliminary transfer characteristic corresponds to a measurement sequence number. Meanwhile, one preliminary transfer characteristic can also represent the corresponding relationship data between the output current and the input voltage of a group of target transistors through the corresponding transfer characteristic curve. Correspondingly, one threshold voltage can be obtained according to one preliminary transfer characteristic, and multiple threshold voltages can be obtained according to multiple preliminary transfer characteristics, and further, the threshold voltage variation curve with the measurement sequence number can be constructed according to the multiple threshold voltages and the corresponding measurement sequence numbers. The threshold voltage variation trend refers to the rising trend or the falling trend of the threshold voltage variation curve with the measurement sequence number.
[0095] In actual application, the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform can have an upward trend or a downward trend with the measurement serial number, and the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform can have an upward trend or a downward trend with the measurement serial number. Alternatively, the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform can have the same trend or different trend with the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform with the measurement serial number.
[0096] S107, updating the adjusted terminal input voltage according to the detection result and the voltage adjustment amount to obtain a current terminal input voltage.
[0097] Specifically, the computer device can pre-train an input voltage updating model, and then input the detection result and the voltage adjustment amount into the input voltage updating model. The input voltage updating model outputs the current terminal input voltage after updating the adjusted terminal input voltage according to the detection result and the voltage adjustment amount.
[0098] Alternatively, the input voltage updating model can be implemented by at least one of a convolutional neural network model, a fully connected neural network model, a long short-term memory neural network model, a recurrent neural network model, and a residual neural network model.
[0099] In one embodiment, the step of updating the adjusted terminal input voltage according to the detection result and the voltage adjustment amount to obtain a current terminal input voltage in S107 can be implemented in the following manner:
[0100] If the detection result is different, the voltage adjustment amount is updated to obtain a latest voltage adjustment amount, and the latest voltage adjustment amount and the initial input voltage are summed to obtain the current terminal input voltage. If the detection result is the same, the voltage adjustment amount and the initial input voltage are summed to obtain the current terminal input voltage. The latest voltage adjustment amount is less than the voltage adjustment amount.
[0101] Specifically, in the case that the detection result is that the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform and the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform have different trends with the measurement serial number, the voltage adjustment amount can be updated to obtain a latest voltage adjustment amount, and the latest voltage adjustment amount and the initial input voltage are summed to obtain the current terminal input voltage.
[0102] In actual application, the way of updating the voltage adjustment amount can be multiplying the voltage adjustment amount by a preset threshold value to obtain a latest voltage adjustment amount. The preset threshold value can be -0.1, -0.2, -0.3, etc. In the embodiments of the present application, the preset threshold value is taken as -0.5 for example.
[0103] In addition, in the case that the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform and the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform respectively has the same variation trend with the measurement serial number, the current termination input voltage can be directly obtained by summing the voltage adjustment amount and the initial input voltage.
[0104] S108, based on the current termination input voltage and the initial input voltage, reacquire multiple latest transfer characteristics of the target transistor until the hysteresis of each latest transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0105] Further, the latest bidirectional voltage waveform can be determined based on the current termination input voltage and the initial input voltage, and then multiple latest transfer characteristics of the target transistor are reacquired in the process of applying the latest bidirectional voltage waveform to the target transistor until the hysteresis of each latest transfer characteristic is in a stable state.
[0106] Exemplarily, taking a P-type carbon nanometer transistor made by a 90 nanometer process as the target transistor, and setting the initial input voltage Vgstart of the target transistor as 1.8V and the termination input voltage Vgstop as 0V, after multiple times of applying the initial bidirectional voltage waveform determined according to the initial input voltage Vgstart and the termination input voltage Vgstop of the target transistor to the target transistor, the multiple preliminary transfer characteristics obtained can be represented by Figure 7 , and Figure 8 is Figure 7 the corresponding threshold voltage Vth(V) variation trend graph with the measurement serial number. From Figure 7 It can be seen that the hysteresis of the multiple preliminary transfer characteristics is in an unstable state, and further, the termination input voltage Vgstop can be adjusted to an adjusted termination input voltage -1.8V, and after multiple times of applying the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform determined according to the initial input voltage Vgstart and the adjusted termination input voltage of the target transistor to the target transistor, the multiple adjusted transfer characteristics obtained can be represented by Figure 9 , and Figure 10 is Figure 9 the corresponding threshold voltage variation trend graph with the measurement serial number. From Figure 10It can be seen that the hysteresis of the plurality of adjusted transfer characteristics is in an unstable state, and the variation trend of the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform and the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform respectively is inconsistent with the measurement sequence number, further, the voltage adjustment amount-1.8V can be updated to the latest voltage adjustment amount-0.5*-1.8V (i.e. 0.9V), the current termination input voltage can be obtained by summing the adjusted termination input voltage and the latest voltage adjustment amount, and after the target transistor is applied with the latest bidirectional voltage waveform determined according to the initial input voltage Vgstart and the current termination input voltage of the target transistor multiple times, the plurality of transfer characteristics obtained in this case can be represented by Figure 11 , and Figure 12 is Figure 11 the corresponding threshold voltage variation trend diagram with the measurement sequence number. Wherein, from Figure 12 It can be seen that the hysteresis of the plurality of transfer characteristics in this case is in a stable state, at this time, the measurement is ended.
[0107] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application detects whether the variation trend of the threshold voltage obtained when the target transistor is applied with the initial bidirectional voltage waveform and the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform respectively is the same or not in the case that the hysteresis of each adjusted transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, and updates the termination input voltage of the target transistor to obtain the current termination input voltage according to the detection result and the voltage adjustment amount, reacquires the plurality of latest transfer characteristics of the target transistor based on the current termination input voltage and the initial input voltage, and stops until the hysteresis of each latest transfer characteristic is in a stable state; the above method can select the termination input voltage of the target transistor according to the consistency of the variation trend of the threshold voltage obtained by the adjacent two measurements before the current time, so as to effectively help to speed up the speed of the hysteresis of the latest transfer characteristic in a stable state, and the processing process is relatively simple, thereby being able to speed up the processing speed; at the same time, the above method can flexibly select a reasonable way to update the adjusted termination input voltage according to different detection results, so as to improve the accurate basic processing for subsequent reaching the hysteresis of the latest transfer characteristic in a stable state.

[0111] In a case where the difference between different first curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within a preset difference range, the difference between different second curves in each preliminary transfer characteristic is within the difference range, and the difference between the first curve and the second curve in each preliminary transfer characteristic is the same, it is determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in a stable state; otherwise, it is determined that the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state.
[0112] In a case where the hysteresis of each preliminary transfer characteristic is in an unstable state, the termination input voltage and the voltage adjustment amount are summed to obtain an adjusted termination input voltage, and an adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform of the target transistor is determined according to the adjusted termination input voltage and the starting input voltage.
[0113] A plurality of adjusted transfer characteristics of the target transistor when the adjusted bidirectional voltage waveform is applied thereto are obtained; the adjusted transfer characteristics include third curves and fourth curves.
