US Patent 11443092 Defect weight formulas for analog defect simulation

A method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can perform an analog defect simulation on an electronic device. The method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can generate a defect catalog which identifies a defect class relating to a defect and a modeling parameter that is associated with the defect class. The method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can receive a weight formula that identifies a weight for the defect class in relation to the modeling parameter. The method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can call a defect weight function to return the weight from the defect weight formula. The method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can perform the analog defect simulation on the electronic device. The method, apparatus, and/or computer program product can determine a simulation statistic relating to the analog defect simulation utilizing the weight.
