  • Abstract
    We present a simple and efficient method for the extraction of thermal channel noise of MOSFET´s in quarter and sub-quarter micron technologies from NF50 (noise figure at 50 ohm source resistance) measurements. For shorter channel lengths the experimental results shows a continuously rising deviation from the classical long channel theory. For a 0.18 μm technology a φ≈6 instead of 2/3 in saturation was extracted (increase of factor 9 compared to the long channel theory).
