Abstract :
We report a device physics theory and compact model that predicts the threshold voltage mismatch for CMOS transistors using the halo implant. This model is able to fit CMOS VT mismatch across temperature and device geometry, validating the underlying physical argument. A bias method is presented and shown to recover part of the matching degradation due to the halo implant.
