Abstract :
This paper reviews the status and challenges of the modeling partially-depleted silicon-on-insulator transistors. Many challenges stem from the floating-body potential, which offers advantages in terms of performance and leakage, but presents complex electrical behavior. Circuit simulator considerations and the importance of model standardization are also highlighted.
