Abstract :
The advantages of SOI technologies for radio-frequency applications are now well established in terms of their compatibility with the use of high resistivity substrates which allow fabrication of passive components with good performance. However, these technologies suffer from floating body effects, in particular for analog applications (Tseng et al, 1999). In this work, the floating body effects have been investigated and the impact of the use of the body-source tied architecture on radio-frequency performance has also been analysed
