Abstract
In this paper commonly used extraction methods of MOSFET threshold voltage mismatch are compared. The VT mismatch is extracted on the exact same device population by four independent characterization groups. Significant differences are observed, which are caused by differences in measurement setup and differences in extraction algorithm. The observed differences are analyzed. In addition merits and limitations of the various techniques are evaluated.
