  • Abstract
    Extensive measurements of drain current thermal noise are presented for 3 different CMOS technologies and for gate lengths ranging from 2 /spl mu/m down to 0.17 /spl mu/m. Using a surface-potential-based compact MOS model with improved descriptions of carrier mobility and velocity saturation, all the experimental results can be described accurately without invoking carrier heating effects or introducing additional parameters.
