time-resolved cathodoluminescence, metrology

Measure luminescence dynamics.

time-resolved emission, failure analysis advanced

Time-resolved photoemission correlates emission timing with circuit activity isolating intermittent or dynamic failures.

time-resolved pl, metrology

Measure carrier lifetime.

timed etch,etch

Stop based on predetermined time.

timeout agent, ai agents

Timeouts halt agent execution after specified duration preventing runaway processes.

timeout configuration,software engineering

Set time limits for operations.

timeout handling, llm optimization

Timeout handling cancels long-running requests preventing resource exhaustion.

timeout,deadline,sla

Set timeouts for LLM calls. SLA defines acceptable latency. Timeout and return error rather than hang indefinitely.

timestep embedding, generative models

Encode diffusion timestep.

timing closure challenge,design

Difficulty in meeting timing at advanced nodes.

timing closure,design

Meet all timing constraints in the design.

Timing closure ensures signals arrive on time. Slack = margin. Critical path is slowest. Iterate until all paths meet timing.

timing error detection and correction, design

Detect and recover from timing failures.

timing margin, design & verification

Timing margins represent buffer between actual delays and timing constraints.

timing margin,design

Safety margin in timing to account for variations.

timing yield, design & verification

Timing yield is percentage of manufactured parts meeting timing requirements under variations.

tip-to-tip spacing,lithography

Critical spacing between line ends.

titanium silicide (tisi2),titanium silicide,tisi2,feol

Older silicide technology.

titration, manufacturing equipment

Titration determines chemical concentration by measuring neutralization volume.

tiva (thermally induced voltage alteration),tiva,thermally induced voltage alteration,failure analysis
