  • Abstract
    TCAD tools were used to design and benchmark 0.25-μm buried-channel PMOS (BCPMOS) versus surface-channel PMOS (SCPMOS), for both device and circuit performance. With optimized device designs, BCPMOS gives smaller gate delays than SCPMOS for INVERTER and NAND gates with supply voltages VDD>1.4 V, and for NOR gates with V DD>2.4 V
