  • Abstract
    In this paper we propose a novel technique for programming floating gate MOS transistors (FGMOS) in low-power design. By threshold-shifting low-power operation is possible with the cost of an extra polysilicon layer. Combining the FGMOS transistor with a UV-activated (UV) conductance gives rise to the UV-light programmable floating-gate MOS (FGUVMOS) transistor. The FGUVMOS transistor is utilized to increase the efficiency at low supply voltages
