“…On the contrary, the frequency value above which the average model holds true is comparatively independent of the strength of the applied stress because of the attainment of a stable temperature within the metal line. The frequency of greater than 10 MHz obtained in this study is in the same range as that reported elsewhere [9], [10]. The variance of the value with current stress and operating frequency can be shown by a numerical example based on our calculation.…”

“…It is thus clear that the or dependence is observable experimentally and that the concrete value of depends strongly upon the temperature difference, which in turn varies with current density, test (oven) temperature as well as sample structure. This could be one reason why the reported transition region of frequency between the average and on-time models is far from consistent [6], [7], [9], [12]. On the contrary, the frequency value above which the average model holds true is comparatively independent of the strength of the applied stress because of the attainment of a stable temperature within the metal line.…”

“…Clock and signal nets, on the other hand, conduct alternating currents (AC). Due to self-healing mechanisms, these alternating currents affect wire lifetimes less than direct currents [29] [32]. Thus, the different net classes of digital circuits require different current density limits.…”
