Abstract :
This work presents an approach for accurate MOS transistor matching calculation. Our model, which is based on an accurate physics-based MOSFET model, allows the assessment of mismatch from process parameters and valid for any operating region. Experimental results taken on a test set of transistors implemented in a 1.2 μm CMOS technology corroborate the theoretical development of this work.
