Abstract :
Characteristics of `self-body-biased´ (`SBB´) SOI MOSFETs (Terauchi and Terada, 1999) have been studied in detail. Static simulations show that both the desired off-state leakage current (Ioff) and the on-state current (Ion) ratio (Ion/Ioff) can be achieved by independently changing the impurity concentration of the `high Na´ and the `low Na´ regions of `SBB´ SOI MOSFETs. Transient simulations reveal that an inverter made of `SBB´ CMOS devices has up to 30% shorter propagation delay (τpd) at a supply voltage of 0.9 V than that for a bulk CMOS inverter under a relatively heavy load condition (load capacitance of 1 pF)
