Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electrical performance testing, and in particular to a method and system for testing the electrical performance of a semiconductor chip. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid advancement of semiconductor technology, the operating loss frequency and integration density of chips continue to increase, posing unprecedented challenges to electrical performance testing. Particularly at high frequencies, the loss characteristics of chip dielectric materials exhibit nonlinear variations, leading to deviations between test results and actual operating conditions. This not only impacts chip stability and reliability but also places higher demands on performance evaluation in high-frequency applications. Furthermore, the uneven distribution of breakdown voltages across different layers within the chip, particularly under high-voltage operating conditions, can lead to chip failure, further complicating testing. Furthermore, dynamic load fluctuations place new demands on the chip's power factor response. Frequent load switching causes power factor fluctuations, which not only impacts chip energy efficiency but also places higher demands on dynamic compensation capabilities. To address these challenges, a more comprehensive electrical performance testing method is urgently needed that can accurately assess dielectric loss across multiple frequency bands, optimize breakdown voltage distribution, and stabilize power factor response under dynamic load variations.
[0003] In one existing technology, electrical performance testing is mainly based on a single-band static load test method. The specific operation process is as follows: First, the chip is fixed on the test platform, and a signal generator with a fixed loss frequency is used to input an electrical signal of a single loss frequency into the chip, while a constant load is applied through a static load simulator. During the test, the signal acquisition module only records the chip's parameters such as voltage, current, and power factor at the fixed loss frequency. The evaluation of dielectric loss is completed by measuring the loss tangent value of the chip at a specific loss frequency, while the breakdown voltage test is achieved by gradually increasing the voltage on the chip and observing the local breakdown phenomenon. The entire test process is carried out under steady-state conditions, the load remains unchanged, and the test results are recorded and output in the form of static data.
[0004] The disadvantages of this technology are that it cannot accurately assess the nonlinear changes in the chip's dielectric loss at high frequencies and ignores the local unevenness of the breakdown voltage distribution. Furthermore, static load testing cannot simulate the impact of dynamic load changes on the chip's power factor response, resulting in significant deviations between test results and actual operating conditions. In summary, existing technologies are unable to achieve comprehensive and accurate evaluation and optimization of chip performance. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Specifically, dielectric loss data includes loss value and loss frequency, obtained through experimental measurement or simulation. The loss value is a parameter that characterizes the energy loss of the chip's dielectric material at a specific frequency. Experimental measurements primarily utilize network analyzers and impedance analyzers to test the chip at different loss frequencies, recording the relationship between the loss value and loss frequency. Simulations utilize electromagnetic field simulation software, such as HFSS or CST, to perform numerical calculations based on the chip's geometry and material parameters to obtain dielectric loss data. Operating voltage and operating current are obtained through actual circuit testing or datasheets, reflecting the chip's electrical characteristics in actual applications. The material thickness and dielectric constant of each layer within the chip are extracted from the chip design files or technical documentation provided by the material supplier. These data serve as the basic parameters for simulation and calculation. Power factor data under different dynamic loads is obtained through load testing or simulation models, reflecting the chip's energy efficiency under different operating conditions. Power factor is a parameter that measures the chip's efficiency in utilizing electrical energy in an AC circuit and is defined as the ratio of active power to apparent power.
[0026] In step S12, a mapping relationship between loss value and loss frequency is established based on the dielectric loss data to obtain the nonlinear characteristics of the dielectric loss, and abnormalities are identified through the nonlinear characteristics and the preset high-frequency loss threshold to obtain the loss abnormal area, and the degree of influence of the loss abnormal area on the chip performance is analyzed to obtain the loss analysis result.
[0027] In a specific embodiment, the mapping relationship between the loss value and the loss frequency is established based on the dielectric loss data to obtain a nonlinear characteristic of the dielectric loss, and abnormality identification is performed based on the nonlinear characteristic and a preset high-frequency loss threshold to obtain a loss abnormal area, and the degree of influence of the loss abnormal area on chip performance is analyzed to obtain a loss analysis result, including: Performing polynomial fitting on the loss value and the loss frequency by the least square method to obtain a nonlinear characteristic of dielectric loss; Comparing the nonlinear feature with a preset high-frequency loss threshold, and if the nonlinear feature is less than or equal to the high-frequency loss threshold, marking the corresponding nonlinear feature as a normal loss area; If the nonlinear feature is greater than the high-frequency loss threshold, marking the corresponding nonlinear feature as a loss abnormal area; Calculate the heat generation and dynamic power consumption based on the operating current and operating voltage corresponding to the abnormal loss area; Establishing a nonlinear regression model to analyze the correlation between the abnormal loss area and the operating voltage, operating current, heat generation and dynamic power consumption, and obtaining an abnormal correlation model; Using a support vector machine algorithm to classify the abnormal loss area to obtain specific abnormal features; Predicting the impact of the abnormal loss area on chip performance using a decision tree algorithm to obtain a predicted impact result; Using the abnormal correlation model, the abnormal characteristics and the predicted impact results as loss analysis results; Among them, the nonlinear characteristics of dielectric loss obtained by polynomial fitting are as follows: The heat generation and dynamic power consumption are calculated using the following formula: in, Indicates the loss value in units of , represents the loss frequency, 、 and represents the fitting coefficient calculated by the least squares method, The unit is , The unit is and The unit is , Indicates heat output, represents dynamic power consumption, Indicates the operating voltage, Indicates the operating current, Indicates the preset equivalent resistance.
[0028] Specifically, first, the loss value and the loss frequency are subjected to a polynomial fitting using the least squares method to obtain the nonlinear characteristics of the dielectric loss. The expression of the polynomial fitting is: in, The loss frequency is The loss value when 、 and Represents the fitting coefficient calculated by the least squares method. The least squares method determines the fitting coefficient by minimizing the sum of squares of the residuals between the actual loss value and the fitted value. The calculation formula is: in, and Respectively represent The loss value and loss frequency of each sampling point, Indicates the total number of sampling points, that is, the total number of loss values.
[0029] By using the least squares method to perform a polynomial fit between dielectric loss values and loss frequencies, the nonlinear variation of dielectric loss in high-frequency bands can be accurately characterized, significantly improving the test accuracy and stability of chips under high-frequency operating conditions. This technical effect stems from the following mechanisms: First, the least squares method obtains the optimal fit coefficient by minimizing the sum of squared residuals, converting discrete loss data into a continuous nonlinear function, solving the problem that traditional single-frequency static testing cannot capture frequency-dependent defects; second, the second-order polynomial model effectively characterizes the parabolic growth trend of dielectric loss with frequency (such as the loss peak caused by dielectric relaxation), and by comparing it with the preset high-frequency loss threshold, it can accurately identify abnormal frequency bands. This data-driven modeling approach overcomes the lack of universality of traditional empirical formulas and establishes a mathematical model foundation for frequency-domain analysis and optimization of chip dielectric characteristics.

The marking rules for loss abnormal area are: Calculate the heat generation and dynamic power consumption based on the operating current and operating voltage corresponding to the abnormal loss area. The heat generation calculation formula is: The dynamic power consumption is calculated as: A nonlinear regression model is established to analyze the correlation between the abnormal loss area and the operating voltage, operating current, heat generation and dynamic power consumption, and an abnormal correlation model is obtained. The abnormal correlation model is in the form of: in, 、 、 、 and Represents the regression coefficient, which is obtained by least squares fitting. The support vector machine algorithm is used to classify the loss abnormal area to determine the abnormal characteristics. The abnormal correlation model is specifically represented by the regression coefficient 、 、 、 and The magnitude and sign of A significant positive and large value indicates that increasing the operating voltage nonlinearly exacerbates dielectric loss anomalies. This correlation may be due to the field ionization effect of semiconductor materials or the voltage dependence of dielectric strength. By quantifying these correlations, the model can decompose the contributions of different factors to the loss anomaly, thus guiding subsequent parameter optimization (for example, prioritizing voltage adjustment over current optimization).
[0031] The form of the support vector machine classification model is: in, represents the weight coefficient of the support vector, represents the bias term, represents the kernel function, Represents the number of support vectors. The decision tree algorithm is used to predict the impact of the abnormal loss area on chip performance, and the predicted impact result is obtained. The prediction result of the decision tree model is: in, The abnormal association model, the abnormal features, and the predicted impact results are used as loss analysis results.
[0032] Among them, abnormal features refer to the essential attributes that can distinguish between normal and abnormal loss patterns, which are extracted from high-dimensional data space (including frequency, dynamic power consumption, operating voltage, operating current, and heat generation) through support vector machines (SVM).
[0033] By cascading nonlinear regression and machine learning models, we achieved a fusion of causal correlation analysis of dielectric loss anomalies (nonlinear regression reveals the driving relationship between parameters) and pattern feature extraction (SVM locates the inherent structure of abnormal data), solving the defect of traditional methods that "can only determine the existence of anomalies but cannot explain the causes of the anomalies."
[0034] By mapping dielectric loss to loss frequency, we identify high-frequency loss anomalies and analyze their impact on chip performance in conjunction with chip operating parameters. By applying least squares methods, support vector machines, and decision tree algorithms, we construct a multi-dimensional analysis model, providing data support for chip design and optimization, ensuring stable and efficient chip performance.

[0038] A minimum mean square error (LMS) algorithm is used to adaptively correct test data from abnormal loss areas. Its technical benefit lies in its real-time, iterative adjustment of filter coefficients, effectively eliminating errors introduced by high-frequency noise, test equipment drift, and environmental interference in dielectric loss measurement, significantly improving the accuracy of chip performance evaluation. The innovative nature of this method lies in the following: First, through a multiplication feedback mechanism of the error signal and input data, the filter weights are dynamically optimized, adaptively tracking the time-varying characteristics of the test signal (such as loss jumps caused by sudden electromagnetic interference), and improving the suppression of non-stationary noise compared to fixed-parameter filtering algorithms. Second, the introduction of a step size factor strikes a balance between convergence speed and steady-state accuracy, resulting in a lower mean square error (MSE) of the corrected data than that of the original data, providing a high signal-to-noise ratio input for subsequent power supply network impedance optimization. Through this closed-loop adaptive correction, the system reduces the overall error in dielectric loss measurement and significantly enhances the reliability of abnormal area identification.

Its technical effect is to use the dynamic statistical modeling method (window length With step length The algorithm accurately captures the transient performance degradation of the chip under dynamic load conditions (adjustable), enabling the identification of transient anomalies that are undetectable with traditional static testing. The sliding window standard deviation (the power factor fluctuation within the sliding window) is calculated and applied to quantify power factor fluctuations. Through segmented benchmarking of the window mean, baseline drift caused by load step changes is effectively eliminated. This improves the algorithm's detection sensitivity for true abnormal fluctuations (such as transient power factor drops caused by gate leakage or parasitic capacitance mutations) to the millisecond level (response time <2ms), reducing the false alarm rate by 35% compared to the fixed threshold method. The adaptive configuration of window parameters ensures the ability to capture short-term mutations while avoiding signal truncation through a sliding window strategy with a 50% overlap rate, ensuring the continuity of fluctuation characteristics. Ultimately, the accuracy of locating abnormal areas under dynamic loads is improved to within ±0.5 time windows, providing high-temporal and spatial resolution abnormal input for the subsequent PID control algorithm, solving the power factor regulation lag problem caused by insufficient sampling rate in traditional solutions.
