Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Determining one or more device parameters (Dp) of one or more parts of an integrated circuit (IC), including: simulating the IC; measuring one or more electrical characteristics of the one or more parts of the IC; using the one or more measured electrical characteristics of the one or more parts of the IC and the simulation to determine the one or more device parameters (Dp) of the one or more parts of the IC; for each part of the IC, determining a corresponding joint probability distribution of the one or more device parameters using the simulation; using maximum likelihood (ML) techniques to determine an estimate of the one or more device parameters; and using the one or more measured electrical characteristics of the one or more parts of the IC and the simulation to improve the estimate of the one or more device parameters.
