Novel Design Methodology for Short-Channel MOSFET Analog Circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a methodology that addresses short-channel effects to design MOSFET circuits. The circuit design is based on a combination of parameter extraction and simple analytical models that allows precise results. The extraction mainly depends on the inversion level, which is independent of geometry, therefore providing points that are applicable to a wide variety of circuits. Trade-offs and design space of the device are clearly brought to the circuit design. Hand calculations and simulations of a common-source amplifier illustrate the methodology.

In this paper, underlap channel dopant-segregated Schottky barrier (DSSB) SOI MOSFET has been proposed, in which the increased effective channel length (Leff) due to underlap channel at both source/drain (S/D) sides reduces the leakage currents, short-channel effects and the parasitic capacitances as compared to overlap channel DSSB SOI MOSFET. Although in strong inversion the voltage drop acro...

متن کاملOutput-Conductance Transition-Free Method for Improving Radio-Frequency Linearity of SOI MOSFET Circuits
In this article, a novel concept is introduced to improve the radio frequency (RF) linearity of partially-depleted (PD) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFET circuits. The transition due to the non-zero body resistance (RBody) in output conductance of PD SOI devices leads to linearity degradation. A relation for RBody is defined to eliminate the transition and a method to obtain transition-free c...
متن کاملUnderstanding MOSFET Mismatch for Analog Design
Despite the significance of matched devices in analog circuit design, mismatch modeling for design application has been lacking. This paper addresses misconceptions about MOSFET mismatch for analog design. t mismatch does not follow a simplistic 1 ( area) law, especially for wide/short and narrow/long devices, which are common geometries in analog circuits. Further, t and gain factor are not ap...
