Abstract

Circuit performance is a function of circuit parameters. If these parameters are random variables, the perfor-mance index is also a random variable. System performance can be determined by value of this index and more importantly, by the probability that it is maintained in specified tolerance range. To evaluate reliability of circuit performance is to analyze tolerance range and corresponding probability in order to determine robustness of circuit design. In this paper, random set theory is used to describe these parameter variables and provide a simple and flexible method for evaluating reliability of circuit performance, which is alternative to Monte-Carlo analysis, but reduces the number of calculations drastically.
