  • This works reports the measurement and analysis results on the hot electron induced device degradation in Gate-All-Around SOI MOSFET's, which were fabricated using commercially available SIMOX material. It is observed that the worst-case condition of the device degradation in nMOSFETs is $V_{GS}$ = $V_{TH}$ due to the higher impact ionization rate when the parasitic bipolar transistor action is activated. It is confirmed that the device degradation is caused by the interface state generation from the extracted degradation rate and the dynamic transconductance measurement. The drain current degradation with the stress gate voltages shows that the device degradation of pMOSFETs is dominantly governed by the trapping of hot electrons, which are generated in drain avalanche hot carrier phenomena.r phenomena.

  • We have studied the hot-carrier-induced degradation caused by the high channel electric field due to the decrease of the gate length of MOSFET used in VLSI. Under DC stress, the condition in which maximum substrate current occures gave the worst degradation. Under AC dynamic stress, other conditions, the pulse shape and the falling rate, gave enormous effects on the degradation phenomena, especially at 77K. Threshold voltage, transconductance, channel conductance and gate current were measured and compared under various stress conditions. The threshold voltage was almost completely recovered by hot-injection stress as a reverse-stress. But, the transconductance was rapidly degraded under hot-hole injection and recovered by sequential hot-electron stress. The Si-SiO2 interface state density was analyzed by a charge pumping technique and the charge pumping current showed the same trend as the threshold voltage shift in degradation process.

  • This paper discusses the design of a sample-and -hold amplifier(SHA) that has a 12-bit resolution with a 100 MS/s speed. The sample-and-hold amplifier uses the open-loop architecture with hold-mode feedthrough cancellation for high accuracy and high sampling speed. The designed SHA is composed of input buffer, sampling switch, and output buffer with additional amplifier for offset cancellation Hard Ware. The input buffer is implemented with folded-cascode type operational transconductance Amplifier(OTA), and sampling switch is implemented with switched source follower(SSF). A spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) of this circuit is 72.6 dB al 100 MS/s. Input signal dynamic range is 1 Vpp differential. Power consumption is 65 ㎽.

  • The hot-carrier induced degradation in very short-channel MOSFET was studied systematically. Under the traditional DC stress conditions, the threshold voltage shift (${\Delta}Vt$) and the transconductance degradation (${\Delta}Gm$/(Gmo-${\Delta}Gm$)) were confirmed to depend exponentially on the stress time and the dependency between the two parameters was proved to be linear. And the degradation due to the DC stress across gate and drain was studied. As the AC dynamic process is more realistic in actual device operation, the effects of dynamic stresses were studied.

  • In this paper, we present a new adaptive biasing scheme for CMOS op-amps. The designed circuit has been used in an Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) with ${\pm}1$ V power supply, and it has improved the positive and negative slew rates from 2.92 V/msec to 1242 V/msec and from 1.56 V/msec to 133 V/msec respectively, while maintaining all the small-signal performance parameter values the same as that without adaptive biasing (as expected), however, there was a marginal decrease of the dynamic range. The most useful features of the proposed circuit are that it uses a very low number of components (thus not creating severe area penalty) and requires only 25 nW of extra stand-by power.

  • A novel instrumentation amplifier (IA) using fully-differential linear operational transconductance amplifier (FLOTA) for electronic measurement systems with low cost, wideband, and gain control with wide range is designed. The IA consists of a FLOTA, two resistor, and an operational amplifier(op-amp). The principal of the operating is that the difference of two input voltages applied into FLOTA converts into two same difference currents, and then these current drive resistor of (+) terminal and feedback resistor of op-amp to obtain output voltage. To verify operating principal of the IA, we designed the FLOTA and realized the IA used commercial op-amp LF356. Simulation results show that the FLOTA has linearity error of 0.1% and offset current of 2.1uA at input dynamic range ${\pm}3.0V$. The IA had wide gain range from -20dB to 60dB by variation of only one resistor and -3dB frequency for the 60dB was 10MHz. The proposed IA also has merits without matching of external resistor and controllable offset voltage using the other resistor. The power dissipation of the IA is 105mW at supply voltage of ${\pm}5V$.
