Abstract

We propose a test circuit which can evaluate statistical characteristics of gate leakage current in a very short time with high accuracy (10 17 - 10 17 A, 87344 samples in 80 s). The absolute value of the gate leakage current is verified and the repeatability error is 110 18 A. Using the test circuit, random telegraph signal of the gate leakage current and stress induced leakage current are evaluated statistically.
