  • Abstract
    A model for RF CMOS circuit design is presented that is capable of predicting drain and gate current noise without adjusting any parameters. Additionally, the presence of (i) noise associated with avalanche multiplication, and (ii) shot noise of the direct-tunneling gate current in leaky dielectrics is revealed.
