Accelerator factor in voltage is then carried out and expected degradation laws at 5V and 3.3V derived. The following graphs show the frequency degradation of oscillators running at 5V and 3.3V.

Lines are declared to be failed for a shift of the initial resistance by 20%. Results are summarized in the table below. Level Metal1 Metal2 Metal3 W/L/T(1) 2/2000/0.50 2/2000/0.50 2/2000/0.70 Structure Failures Ti/TiN/AlCu/TiN Ti/TiN/AlCu/TiN Ti/TiN/AlCu/TiN no no no (1) W/L/T=Width/Length/Thickness of the metal line in microns Lifetime projection The objective of reliability is to reach less than 10 FIT on metal line within 10 years at a temperature of 150°C. As no failures have been found at 1000 hours in the above stress conditions a lifetime projection in FIT is meaningless. However, assuming for AlCu metalization an activation energy in temperature Ea of 0.60eV and an activation in current with a power-law coefficient n of 2, the current density which guarantees no failures within 10 years at 150°C can be extrapolated. With these assumptions the projected current density for no failures at 150°C within 10 years is calculated as 5x105A/cm² which is much higher than the current density of 2x105A/cm² specified in the design rules.

The tested capacitor areas are varying from 4.10 to 5.10 cm². Two types of capacitors with poly overlaping the field oxide (DEC) and poly non overlaping the field oxide (INC) are measured. The distributions have been obtained from 750 measurements for each area and type of capacitors on 10 different lots. Extrinsic defects: The two graphs here after represent the % of failures vs area for Qbd below or equal to 0.1 Cb/cm². The law of Poisson is used to determine the D0 defect density of the extrinsic defects: Y=1-exp(-Area * DO) Poly overlaping the Field oxide on Tox/P- and Tox/N-: The DO is found to be 1.1 def/cm². This result is in agreement with the goal for DO of 1 def/cm².

This result is in agreement with the goal for DO of 1 def/cm². Qbd < 0.1Cb/cm² CAPA WITH POLY NON OVERLAPING THE FIELD OXIDE 0 Ln(1-Y) -0,01 INC P- -0,02 INC N-0,03 Poisson -0,04 -0,05 0 0,02 0,04 0,06 Area in cm² DO=0.9 def/cm² Intrinsic defects: The graph here after represents the percentage of failure for a Qbd > 10 Cb/cm² vs the area. The worst case given by the bigest capacitors shows that 67% of the total distribution has a Qbd > 10 Cb/cm². This result guarantees a good reliability behaviour. The critical charge, supported by thin oxide and related to the extrinsic defects, is measured on TOX/P- capacitors of 42570µm² and TOX/N- capacitors of 85140µm². Following are the average results obtained on recent lots from a distribution of about 60 sites per wafer. The minimum specification limit is 10C/cm².

This operation is needed to reach the appropriate programming conditions. As a result, the maximum voltage between gate and source/drain of high voltage MOS transistors can be about 10 Volts . The experiment consists of the application of an accelerated constant voltage stress until the breakdown of the oxide is reached. The time of the breakdown is then extrapolated for nominal voltage condition. The capacitor is made with a 20nm oxide growth on P- substrate and the electrode is phosphorus doped poly : the capacitor area is 0.23 mm². The Time Dependant Dielectric Breakdown is accelerated in voltage and temperature.The temperature is set to 150°C so no acceleration factor depending on temperature is needed for the extrapolation of product lifetime. An unique accelerated electrical field of 9 MV/cm (19.4V for this oxide thickness) has been applied. The experiment has been performed on capacitors issued from 3 wafers coming from 3 different lots : a set of 28 capacitors has been stressed. A cumulative plot of failures obtained first at 19.4V and the second one projected to 10V with the relevant model are presented on the following figure : SCMOS3 NV HVOX 4 19.4 V 2 10V 0 Data -2 Model -4 -6 -8 -10 0 2 4 6 8 10 Log(t(s)) June 2001 12 14 16 18 Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers Qualpack TS87C51RD2/TS83C51RD2 The model predicts a failure level of about 1 ppm for 640 seconds at 150°C far above the specification of 0.01% then the High Voltage MOS gate oxide is qualified. Conclusion: The QBD results demonstrate high reliability level of SCMOS3 NV thin oxide.
