Abstract :
For pt.I, see ibid., vol.39, no.10, p.2268-77 (1992). The noise performance, important for the use of p-channel transistors on high-resistivity silicon in analog applications, is investigated. This is done for the two operation modes: bulk (|Vgs|<|VT|) and surface (| Vgs|>|VT|). For the studied transistors, both modes are characterized by a 1/f noise spectrum extending to frequencies of up to ≈100 Hz, and followed by a white-noise spectrum, determined by the substrate resistance
