  • Abstract
    MOSFET hot carrier degradation under dynamic stress conditions is analyzed on submicron N-and P-channel transistors manufactured with up to date CMOS processes. Comparison of dynamic data to static stressing results shows the inadequacy of conventional methods in life-time prediction. Novel effects, mainly for P-channel devices, are observed and discussed.
