  • Abstract
    We present numerical results for the potential, current, and surface charge distributions as well as the sensitivity of a magnetic-field-sensitive split-drain n-channel MOSFET´s operating in the linear region. We also present a suitable circuit configuration that incorporates this device and calculate the overall sensitivity of the resulting magnetic-field-sensitive circuit. Optimization of the device geometry is discussed.
