Abstract

We analyze the carrier dynamics in MOSFETs under low-voltage operation. For this purpose the displacement (charging/discharging) current, induced during switching operations is studied experimentally and theoretically for a 90nm CMOS technology. It is found that the experimental transient characteristics can only be well reproduced in the circuit simulation of low voltage applications by considering the carrier-transit delay in the compact MOSFET model. Long carrier transit delay under the low voltage switching-on operation results in long duration of the displacement current flow. On the other hand, the switching-off characteristics are independent of the bias condition.
