  • Abstract
    This paper uses an interesting case study to highlight High Resolution Pulsed TIVA with Solid Immersion Lens (SIL) as a technique to isolate a temperature sensitive failure in a mixed signal circuitry followed by circuit analysis and Nanoprobing to confirm a drive strength issue caused by a process change.
