Download or read book Measurement and Modeling of Silicon Heterostructure Devices written by John D. Cressler and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you see a nicely presented set of data, the natural response is: “How did they do that; what tricks did they use; and how can I do that for myself?” Alas, usually, you must simply keep wondering, since such tricks-of- the-trade are usually held close to the vest and rarely divulged. Shamefully ignored in the technical literature, measurement and modeling of high-speed semiconductor devices is a fine art. Robust measuring and modeling at the levels of performance found in modern SiGe devices requires extreme dexterity in the laboratory to obtain reliable data, and then a valid model to fit that data. Drawn from the comprehensive and well-reviewed Silicon Heterostructure Handbook, this volume focuses on measurement and modeling of high-speed silicon heterostructure devices. The chapter authors provide experience-based tricks-of-the-trade and the subtle nuances of measuring and modeling advanced devices, making this an important reference for the semiconductor industry. It includes easy-to-reference appendices covering topics such as the properties of silicon and germanium, the generalized Moll-Ross relations, the integral charge-control model, and sample SiGe HBT compact model parameters.
Download or read book Compact Modeling written by Gennady Gildenblat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-06-22 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the recent texts on compact modeling are limited to a particular class of semiconductor devices and do not provide comprehensive coverage of the field. Having a single comprehensive reference for the compact models of most commonly used semiconductor devices (both active and passive) represents a significant advantage for the reader. Indeed, several kinds of semiconductor devices are routinely encountered in a single IC design or in a single modeling support group. Compact Modeling includes mostly the material that after several years of IC design applications has been found both theoretically sound and practically significant. Assigning the individual chapters to the groups responsible for the definitive work on the subject assures the highest possible degree of expertise on each of the covered models.

Download or read book ESD Design Challenges and Strategies in Deeply scaled Integrated Circuits written by Shuqing Cao and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2010 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the main objective of this work to address the scaling and design challenges of ESD protection in deeply scaled technologies. First, the thesis introduces the on-chip ESD events, the scaling and design challenges, and the nomenclatures necessary for later chapters. The ESD design window and the I/O schematics for both rail clamping and local clamping ESD schemes are illustrated. Then, the thesis delves into the investigation of the input and output driver devices and examines their robustness under ESD. The input driver's oxide breakdown levels are evaluated in deeply scaled technologies. The output driver's trigger and breakdown voltages are improved appreciably by applying circuit and device design techniques. The ESD device sections first discuss rail-based clamping, a widely used protection scheme. Two diode-based devices, namely the gated diode and substrate diode, are investigated in detail with SOI test structures. Characterization is based on DC current-voltage (I-V), Very Fast Transmission Line Pulse (VF-TLP), capacitance, and leakage measurements. Improvements in performance are realized. Technology computer aided design (TCAD) simulations help understand the physical effects and design tradeoffs. Then, the following section focuses on the local clamping scheme. Two devices, the field-effect diode (FED) and the double-well FED (DWFED), are developed and optimized in an SOI technology. Trigger circuits are designed to improve the turn-on speed. The advantages of local clamping is highlighted and compared with the rail-based clamping. The results show that the FED is a suitable option for power clamping applications and the DWFED is most suitable for pad-based local clamping. The thesis presents an ESD protection design methodology, which takes advantage of the results and techniques from pervious chapters and put each element into a useful format. Based on the correlation of package level and in-lab test results, a design process based on CDM target definition and device optimization, discharge path analysis, parasitic minimization, I/O data rate estimation and finally ESD and performance characterization is used sequentially to systematically realize the overall design goals.
