  • Abstract
    A linear relation exists between the maximum forward gated-diode current Id and the corresponding maximum charge pumping current Icp, in a hot-carrier stressed pMOSFET. Id peak is further observed to shift by an amount equal to the shift in the rising edge of Icp. A close correspondence between the two currents is demonstrated
