  • Abstract
    Experimental results on MOS small-signal conductances in the weak avalanche multiplication region are presented. The increase in the channel current due to the bulk effect produced by the voltage drop in the substrate has been considered and included in a simple model for the output conductance. Changes in the other small-signal conductances, such as the transconductance overshoot, have also been investigated
