Abstract
An integrated methodology for assessing analog hot-carrier reliability is proposed. Taking advantage of the unique requirements of analog circuits as well as the well-developed circuit analysis techniques, the methodology focuses on the characterization and modeling of ΔVT and Δμ (as a function of hot-carrier degradation) at the device level and seeks to model circuit-level DC performance parameters degradation through analytical expressions derived from SPICE Model 1
