Abstract

This work presents the design and electrical characterization of in-house-fabricated 2-input NAND gate. The monolithic bipolar 2-input NAND gate employing transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is demonstrated in 4H-SiC and operates over a wide range of temperature and supply voltage.The fabricated circuit was characterized on the wafer by using a hot-chuck probe-station from 25 °C up to 500 °C. The circuit is also characterized over a wide range of voltage supply i.e. 11 to 20 V. The output-noise margin high (NMH) and output-noise margin low (NML) are also measured over a wide range of temperatures and supply voltages using voltage transfer characteristics (VTC). The transient response was measured by applying two square waves of, 5 kHz and 10 kHz. It is demonstrated that the dynamic parameters of the circuit are temperature dependent. The 2-input TTL NAND gate consumes 20 mW at 500 °C and 15 V.
