Previous Lecture • Semiconductor Theory • Diode • BJTs • FETs • MOSFETs
Lecture 4 • MOSFET Static Behavior
MOS Static Behavior • The Threshold Voltage • Resistive Operation • The Saturation Region • Channel-Length Modulation • Velocity Saturation • Drain Current versus Voltage Charts • Subthreshold Conduction
The Threshold Voltage • Width and Space charge per unit area is given as: NA issubstrate doping and Ø is the voltage across the depletion region
The Threshold Voltage.... • Strong inversion occurs at 2 times of Fermi Voltages. Where Fermi voltages is • Charge stored in depletion region is • VSB effect charge stored in depletion region. Above equation becomes • VSB effect also effect threshold voltages
Resistive Operation • The induced charge per unit area at point x is Where • Current is equal to product of drift velocity of the carriers and available charge.
Resistive Operation... Where Then By integrating Where
The Saturation Region At ID becomes
Channel-Length Modulation Where lambda is channel length modulation
SubthresholdConduction Slope Factor: How much VGS has to be reduced for the drain current to drop by factor of 10.
