Abstract
Potential reliability effects due to a profusion of hot electrons generated by a parasitic bipolar have been identified in short channel N-type IGFET devices. An explanation of the phenomenon as well as a mathematical and circuit model for the effects are presented. Results from the model will be used to predict changes in device characteristics with time.
