Abstract :
The extrapolated dc lifetime of both body-floating and body-grounded partially-depleted SOI n-MOSFETs was demonstrated to be similar when stress conditions corresponding to realistic service conditions were used. Under these stress conditions, no special SOI-related effects exist and floating-body devices can be used for accelerated lifetime measurements
