Abstract
Gate oxide breakdown effect on CMOS RF devices has been examined. The breakdown spot resistance and total gate capacitance of nMOS transistors decrease with stress. The analytical equation of cutoff frequency including the gate oxide breakdown effect is derived. The impact of oxide breakdown on the performance of an LC oscillator is evaluated. The oscillation frequency of the LC oscillator increases with oxide breakdown.
