摘要: In this paper we introduce a new subthreshold conduction CAD model for simulation of VLSI subthreshold CMOS analog circuits and systems, This model explicitly formulates the back-gate bias effect and preserves the original advantages of the existing four-parameter model while reducing the fitting parameter number down to three, A transparent relationship between the fitting parameters and the process parameters has been derived, and its correlation with a recently widely used CAD model as well as with a well-known two-parameter model has been established, Our extensive measurement work on n-channel MOSFET's has highlighted the potential of the model in handling the variations in the subthreshold I-V characteristics at different back-gate biases arising from process variations, The mismatch analysis has further been successfully performed with emphasis on the reverse back-gate bias effect. In summary, the proposed model can serve as a promising alternative in the area of VLSI subthreshold CMOS analog circuit simulation.
