Abstract
On-die measurements of VDD and VSS signals inside a 90 nm technology chip are presented. The results show fluctuations in the VDD and VSS signals, which might constitute an important new reliability concern. These fluctuations also indirectly affect other reliability mechanisms, such as NBTI, HCI and TDDB. Simulations predict aggravation of this phenomenon for future technologies, which may prove to be a show stopper for further scaling.
