  • Abstract
    An engineering model for short-channel MOS devices which includes the effect of carrier drift velocity saturation is described. Based on a piecewise carrier drift velocity model, simplified expressions for the DC drain current I/sub D/, the small signal transconductance g/sub m/ and the output conductance g/sub ds/ in the saturation region are derived. For a given gate voltage, the expressions depend only on the threshold voltage V/sub T/ and the dimensions of the device, whose desired values are normally known.<>
