Abstract: | We present a large/small-signal, non-quasi-static, charge conserving, SOI MOSFET modeling technique suitable for DC and high frequency circuit design. The device model is extracted from small signal microwave iso-thermal Y-parameter data and DC I–V characteristics. Low frequency dispersions associated with self-heating and floating body effects are verified to not limit the performance of this technique since it relies on both DC and transient I–V characteristics. The technique is applied to the modeling of a short-channel, partially depleted, SOI nMOSFET simulated on PISCES. The model generated is incorporated into a circuit simulator, which is used to perform large-signal transient and harmonic balance simulations. The transient I–V and gate charge extracted from the iso-thermal small-signal microwave Y-parameters, are in excellent agreement with the iso-thermal transient I–V and gate charge obtained from PISCES, respectively. The model topology is extended with a parasitic bipolar sub-circuit which automatically calculates the DC operating point for self-biasing circuits. Transient and non-linear power characterization results predicted with this model agree well with those obtained from PISCES for a wide range of input power drives. A complete electro-thermal model is proposed and verified to be able to predict temperature and transient I–V response. |
