  • Abstract
    Two simple implementations of circuits to extract VT are introduced. They are independent of body effect and operate on a single supply voltage VDD of less than two gate-source drops. Experimental and simulation results verify the circuit operation with a power dissipation P=60μA and with single supply VDD=1.4V in 0.5μm CMOS technology and with variations of the extracted threshold voltage of less than 0.2mV for VDD changing from 1.4V to 2.5V.
