Abstract(in English) For improving reliability of LSIs, the delay increase caused by aging during system operation should be detected before a system failure occurs. Such a delay increase can be detected by repeatedly measuring a circuit delay in field. However, the measured delay tends to vary a lot depending on temperature and voltage variations, therefore, it is necessary to get an accurate delay increase without these variations. A method has been proposed that estimates temperature and voltage from the frequencies of the multiple ring-oscillators on a chip. This paper tries to find the best configuration of the ring-oscillators in order to improve its estimation accuracy.
