Impact of Gate Induced Drain Leakage and Impact Ionization Currents on Hysteresis Modeling of PD SOI Circuits

Chen Q., Suryagandh S., Goo J-S, An J.X., Thuruthiyil C., Icel A.B., Advanced Micro Devices, US

The impact of the gate induced drain leakage and impact ionization currents on hysteresis of PD FB SOI circuits is examined, and a physical understanding is provided. Measured silicon data from 90nm and 65nm PD [...]

Improved Prediction of Length/Temperature-Dependent Impact Ionization Induced Body Current Based on an Accurate Saturation Drain Voltage Model

Seah S.H.L., Yeo K.S., Ma J.G., Do M.A., Nanyang Technological University, SG

The length/temperature-dependent body current IB in deep submicron LDD pMOSFETs is investigated, based on an improved saturation drain voltage (VSDsat) extraction algorithm and model. The accuracy of VSDsat is shown to have a direct influence [...]
