MOSFET Linearity Performance Degradation Subject to Drain and Gate Voltage Stress

Abstract: Device parameters degradation of nonlinear elements subject to drain and gate voltage stress is examined experimentally. Analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor linearity degradation due to stress is given. Effects on radio frequency (RF) circuit linearity are investigated systematically through a SpectreRF simulation based on measured device data.

“…So it is always important to consider the scaling factors at the time of designing and optimization of the complete circuit must follow the design rules. Otherwise shrinking of CMOS devices will lead to increase the channel electric filed and therefore the hot carriers will increase and lead to a transistor burnouts or sometimes there will be a significant effect on the performance of the transistor [17]. Most of the transistors undergo with various mechanical stresses when the transistors are ON state.…”

“…In sub-100 nm regime MOSFETs are the strong contenders for analogue RF applications in lucrative wireless communications market. Linearity assessment [1][2][3] is an important parameter in all RF systems which need to be tailored in order to ensure that the inter-modulation and high-order harmonics are minimal at the output. Although there are system level techniques to improve linearity, they all require complex circuitry [4].…”
