  • Abstract
    This paper presents a simple and cheap procedure for characterizing CMOS transistor mismatch. No automatic positioning probe machines are necessary. The technique requires only the use of a host computer, a DC curve tracer (like the HP4145) and a special purpose chip. Characterizations results are given for two processes: the ES2 1.0 μm CMOS process and the CNM 2.5 μm CMOS process
