Book MOSFET Modeling for Circuit Analysis and Design

Download or read book MOSFET Modeling for Circuit Analysis and Design written by Carlos Galup-Montoro and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book dedicated to the next generation of MOSFET models. Addressed to circuit designers with an in-depth treatment that appeals to device specialists, the book presents a fresh view of compact modeling, having completely abandoned the regional modeling approach.Both an overview of the basic physics theory required to build compact MOSFET models and a unified treatment of inversion-charge and surface-potential models are provided. The needs of digital, analog and RF designers as regards the availability of simple equations for circuit designs are taken into account. Compact expressions for hand analysis or for automatic synthesis, valid in all operating regions, are presented throughout the book. All the main expressions for computer simulation used in the new generation compact models are derived.Since designers in advanced technologies are increasingly concerned with fluctuations, the modeling of fluctuations is strongly emphasized. A unified approach for both space (matching) and time (noise) fluctuations is introduced.

Book MOSFET Models for VLSI Circuit Simulation

Download or read book MOSFET Models for VLSI Circuit Simulation written by Narain D. Arora and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) transistors are the basic building block ofMOS integrated circuits (I C). Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits using MOS technology have emerged as the dominant technology in the semiconductor industry. Over the past decade, the complexity of MOS IC's has increased at an astonishing rate. This is realized mainly through the reduction of MOS transistor dimensions in addition to the improvements in processing. Today VLSI circuits with over 3 million transistors on a chip, with effective or electrical channel lengths of 0. 5 microns, are in volume production. Designing such complex chips is virtually impossible without simulation tools which help to predict circuit behavior before actual circuits are fabricated. However, the utility of simulators as a tool for the design and analysis of circuits depends on the adequacy of the device models used in the simulator. This problem is further aggravated by the technology trend towards smaller and smaller device dimensions which increases the complexity of the models. There is extensive literature available on modeling these short channel devices. However, there is a lot of confusion too. Often it is not clear what model to use and which model parameter values are important and how to determine them. After working over 15 years in the field of semiconductor device modeling, I have felt the need for a book which can fill the gap between the theory and the practice of MOS transistor modeling. This book is an attempt in that direction.

Book Charge Based MOS Transistor Modeling

Download or read book Charge Based MOS Transistor Modeling written by Christian C. Enz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-08-14 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern, large-scale analog integrated circuits (ICs) are essentially composed of metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistors and their interconnections. As technology scales down to deep sub-micron dimensions and supply voltage decreases to reduce power consumption, these complex analog circuits are even more dependent on the exact behavior of each transistor. High-performance analog circuit design requires a very detailed model of the transistor, describing accurately its static and dynamic behaviors, its noise and matching limitations and its temperature variations. The charge-based EKV (Enz-Krummenacher-Vittoz) MOS transistor model for IC design has been developed to provide a clear understanding of the device properties, without the use of complicated equations. All the static, dynamic, noise, non-quasi-static models are completely described in terms of the inversion charge at the source and at the drain taking advantage of the symmetry of the device. Thanks to its hierarchical structure, the model offers several coherent description levels, from basic hand calculation equations to complete computer simulation model. It is also compact, with a minimum number of process-dependant device parameters. Written by its developers, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of the EKV charge-based model of the MOS transistor for the design and simulation of low-power analog and RF ICs. Clearly split into three parts, the authors systematically examine: the basic long-channel intrinsic charge-based model, including all the fundamental aspects of the EKV MOST model such as the basic large-signal static model, the noise model, and a discussion of temperature effects and matching properties; the extended charge-based model, presenting important information for understanding the operation of deep-submicron devices; the high-frequency model, setting out a complete MOS transistor model required for designing RF CMOS integrated circuits. Practising engineers and circuit designers in the semiconductor device and electronics systems industry will find this book a valuable guide to the modelling of MOS transistors for integrated circuits. It is also a useful reference for advanced students in electrical and computer engineering.

Book A Physical MOSFET Model Applicable to Extremely Scaled CMOS IC Design

Download or read book A Physical MOSFET Model Applicable to Extremely Scaled CMOS IC Design written by Douglas Weiser and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-31 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A process-based model (UFET) for deep-submicron bulk-silicon MOSFETs is developed and verified with numerical device simulations and measured data. The charge-based model is physical with accountings for the predominant short-channel (e.g., charge sharing, drain-induced threshold reduction and velocity saturation) and extremely scaled-technology (i.e., energy quantization and polysilicon-gate depletion) effects in MOSFETs. The key to UFET is the characterization of the bias-dependent two-dimensional regions near the source/ drain junctions which can extend over a significant fraction of the metallurgical channel length. When these two-dimensional regions near the junctions are modeled, the physical charge-sheet model can be applied to the remaining "quasi-two- dimensional" channel length to define the channel current and terminal charges, without resorting to empiricism to account for the short-channel effects. Special attention paid to continuity in the derivation of the model formalism yields a physical C-infinity model applicable to analog and digital CMOS circuit design. The small number of physical, process-based parameters simplifies the model calibration, and renders the model suitable for predictive device/circuit simulation, statistical simulations and circuit sensitivity analyses based on known or presumed process variations.

Book FET Modeling for Circuit Simulation

Download or read book FET Modeling for Circuit Simulation written by Dileep A. Divekar and published by Springer. This book was released on 1988-03-31 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Circuit simulation is widely used for the design of circuits, both discrete and integrated. Device modeling is an impor tant aspect of circuit simulation since it is the link between the physical device and the sim ulate d device. Curren tly available circuit simulation programs provide a variety of built-in models. Many circuit designers use these built-in models whereas some incorporate new models in the circuit sim ulation programs. Understanding device modeling with particular emphasis on circuit simulation will be helpful in utilizing the built-in models more efficiently as well as in implementing new models. SPICE is used as a vehicle since it is the most widely used circuit sim ulation program. How ever, some issues are addressed which are not directly appli cable to SPICE but are applicable to circuit simulation in general. These discussions are useful for modifying SPICE and for understanding other simulation programs. The gen eric version 2G. 6 is used as a reference for SPICE, although numerous different versions exist with different modifications. This book describes field effect transistor models commonly used in a variety of circuit sim ulation pro grams. Understanding of the basic device physics and some familiarity with device modeling is assumed. Derivation of the model equations is not included. ( SPICE is a circuit sim ulation program available from EECS Industrial Support Office, 461 Cory Hall, University of Cali fornia, Berkeley, CA 94720. ) Acknowledgements I wish to express my gratitude to Valid Logic Systems, Inc.
