SPICE simulation of tunnel FET aiming at 32 kHz crystal-oscillator operation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We numerically investigate the possibility of using Tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET) in a 32 kHz crystal oscillator circuit to reduce power consumption. A simulation using SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) is carried out based on a conventional CMOS transistor model. It is shown that the power consumption of TFET is one-tenth that of conventional low-power CMOS.

متن کاملSubnanosecond, 1 kHz, temperature-tuned, noncritical mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator based on CdSiP(2) crystal pumped at 1064 nm.
Operation of an optical parametric oscillator based on CdSiP(2) and pumped at 1064 nm is demonstrated at a repetition rate of 1 kHz. The maximum output idler energy of 24 microJ at 6.125 microm corresponds to an average power of 24 mW. Increasing the crystal temperature up to 150 degrees in the noncritical (90 degrees) configuration leads to idler wavelength tuning from 6.117 to 6.554 microm. S...
متن کاملInvestigation of a Novel P+n+in+ Tunnel Fet
Tunnel FETs are interesting devices for their steep sub-threshold slopes. In this paper a p+n+in+ tunnel FET is proposed and optimized for a high Ion/Ioff ratio and suitable output characteristics. The proposed tunnel FET has p+in+ structure with a δ-doped n+ region at the beginning of the channel. The proposed structure is extensively studied and the energy bands, transfer characteristics, and...
متن کاملUltrahigh-Speed Multiple-Threshold Comparator Using Resonant-Tunneling Diodes and Heterojunction FETs
An ultrahigh-speed multiple-threshold comparator that consists of resonant-tunneling diodes (RTDs) and heterojunction FETs has been investigated. A novel multiple-threshold operation is obtained by detecting a switching sequence in a series-connected RTD circuit. SPICE simulation reveals that the present comparator operates at a clock frequency as high as 10 GHz. One FET at the input is enough ...
متن کاملTransport Simulation of a Nanoscale Silicon Rod Field-Effect Transistor
We have simulated the behavior of a rod shaped nanoscale ring-gated field-effect transistor (O-FET) using the PISCES-IIb[1] semiconductor drift-diffusion solver. The results from these simulations are used by a custom SPICE 3f5[2] kernel to simulate several simple logic gates. The usefulness of this kind of transistor is examined within the context of a self-assembling fabrication technique tha...
