Abstract :
We present circuit design aspects of fully depleted extremely thin SOI (ETSOI) enabling 22 nm low-power CMOS and beyond, and demonstrate that all devices including analog, I/O, and passive devices can be fabricated in the thin silicon layer. Excellent device matching, gm/gds scaling to small gate length, good RF performance, and absence of history effect are the main features of the ETSOI technology.
