Compact Capacitance Model of LDMOS for Circuit Simulation

Ma J., Ma Y., Chen P., Liang H., Ma J., Ma Y., Jeng M-C, Liu Z., Cadence Design Systems, Inc., US

Capacitance modeling in LDMOS is much more complicated than that in bulk MOSFET’s due to the fact of non-uniform lateral channel doping, the extended gate drain overlap region and its interaction with channel charges. Measurements [...]

Analysis and Modeling of NQS Effects in MOSFET’s

Ma Y., Jeng M-C, Liang H., Liu Z., Cadence Design Systems, Inc., US

Three issues regarding NQS effect in MOSFET’s are investigated: When NQS effect becomes significant, NQS effect on channel charge partition, and its implementation in advanced MOSFET models (PSP, Hisim2 and Bsim4).Channel segmentation method [1] with [...]

Integrated Hierarchical Design of Microelectrofluidic Systems using SystemC

Zhang T., Chakrabarty K., Fair R.B., Cadence Design Systems, Inc., US

This paper describes the role of SystemC in developing an integrated modeling and simulatio environment for microelectrofluidic systems (MEFS). Based on the unique modeling and simulation needs for MEFS, we examine suitability of several existing [...]

System Performance Evaluation with SystemC for Two PCR Microelectrofluidic Systems

Zhang T., Chakrabarty K., Fair R.B., Cadence Design Systems, Inc., US

We present a performance comparison between two types of microfluidic systems - continuous-flow systems and droplet-based systems. The comparison based on a specific microfluidic application - a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system. The modeling and [...]
