Abstract :
Signal swing, power and device performance requirements for analog applications result in trade-offs for scaled MOSFET design. This paper presents a comprehensive study on optimization of deep sub-micron NMOS device for low power analog applications. It is shown that novel channel engineering is essential along with thin gate oxides and shallow junctions for improving the device analog performance.
