Abstract :
Component noise is becoming more of an issue as device sizes reduce. Using a 45 nm CMOS process we evaluate a method to correlate noise in operational amplifiers with transistor noise at low-frequencies. This reduces test time, and provides an alternative method to characterize and model 1/f noise of individual devices.
