Abstract :
Summarizing the results collected on several technologies, we have studied the impact of temperature on MOSFET mismatch, highlighting the improvement of current gain matching properties with temperature, suggesting a possible physical explanation to this phenomenon and proposing a BSIM3 model implementation for Monte Carlo mismatch simulations.
