4 MOS I/V Characteristics Threshold voltage Derivation of I/V characteristics

5 MOS I/V Characteristics: Threshold Voltage () Threshold voltage (V TH ) - The value of V GS for at which a sufficient number of mobile electrons accumulate in the channel region to form a conducting channel is called the threshold voltage. V TH is given by: where Q dep V TH =Φ MS + 2Φ F +, Cox Φ MS - the difference between the work functions of the polysilicon gate and the silicon substrate, Φ F =(KT/q) ln(nsub/ni), q is electron charge, Also N sub is the doping concentration of the substrate, Q dep is the charge in the depletion region, C ox is the gate oxide capacitance per unit area. Q = 4ε Φ N : dep si F sub

6 MOS I/V Characteristics: Threshold Voltage (2) The PMOS device operates in the same manner as the NMOS device except that V GS, V DS and the threshold voltage V T are negative. As the gate-source voltage becomes sufficiently negative, an inversion layer consisting of holes is formed at the oxide-silicon interface, providing a conduction path between the source and the drain.

8 Derivation of I/V Characteristics (2) I D = -WC OX(VGS - V(X)- V TH)v The negative sign is inserted in the above formula as the charge carriers are negative. Also v denotes the velocity of the electrons in the channel I = WC (V - V(x)- V )μ D OX GS TH n dv(x) dx L V DS D OX n GS TH x=0 V=0 I dx = WC μ (V - V(x)- V )dv W I =μ C (V - V )V - V L 2 2 D n OX GS TH DS DS Here L is the effective channel length.

10 If Derivation of I/V Characteristics (4) V << 2(V - V ) DS GS TH W I μ C (V - V )V L D n OX GS TH DS then The drain current is a linear function of V DS. The linear relationship implies that the path from the source to the drain can be represented by a linear resistor equal to R = on W μnc OX (VGS - V TH) L If V DS << 2(VGS - V TH) the device operates in deep triode region.

13 Derivation of I/V Characteristics (7) A MOSFET when operated in the saturation region acts as a voltage-controlled current source i.e. changes in the gate-to-source voltage gives rise changes in the drain current I D. This is known as transconductance, g m which is expressed as: di W g = = μ C (V - V ) D m n OX GS TH dvgs L V =const DS g m can also be expressed as: W 2ID g m = 2μnCOX I D = L V - V GS TH

15 Transistor Second Order Effect, Body Effect VD VB<0 VG VD p + n + n + VG VB<0 p-substrate Fig: NMOS device with negative bulk voltage Suppose V s =V D =0. If V B become more negative, more holes are attracted to the substrate.

16 Body Effect () VB=0 VG VD p + n + n + p-substrate Q D VB<0 VG VD p + n + n + p-substrate Q D

17 Body Effect (2) VDD I t t Ignoring body effect. As V in varies, V out closely follows the input because the drain current remains equal to I. w I= 2 μncox - - V TH, 2 L Now suppose the substrate is tied to ground and body effect is significant. As V in and hence V out become more positive, the potential difference between the source and the bulk increases, raising the value of V TH.

18 Channel-Length Modulation () The actual length of the inverted channel gradually decreases as the potential difference between the gate and the drain increases. In saturation: W 2 ID μncox VGS - VTH + λv DS, 2 L where λ is channel-length modulation coefficient, which represents the relative variation in length for a given increment in V DS. ID VGS2 VGS VDS

19 Channel-Length Modulation (2) With channel-length modulation, some of the expressions derived for g m must be modified. W g m =μncox VGS - VTH + λv DS. L 2μC ox D g m =. + λvds W/L I Since the dependence on V DS is much weaker, the drain-source voltage is not used to set the current.

20 Subthreshold Condition () In reality for VGS VTH, a weak inversion layer still exists and some current flows from D to S. Even for VGS<VTH, ID is finite, but it exhibits an exponential dependence on VGS called sub-threshold conduction. Tthis effect can be formulated for VDS greater than roughly 200 mv as V GS I D=I0exp, ζvt where ζ> is the nonideality factor and VT=KT/q.

21 decade M. S. Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies, Bangalore Subthreshold Condition (2) logid Exponenti al Square Law As the V GS falls below V TH, the drain current drops at a finite rate. With typical values of ζ, at room temperature V GS must decrease by approximately 80 mv for I D to decrease by one decade. The exponential dependence of I D upon V GS in subthreshold operation may suggest the use of MOS device in this regime so as to achieve a higher gain. 80mV VTH VGS MOS subthreshold characteristics

22 Voltage Limitations MOSFETs experience various breakdown effects if their terminal voltage differences exceed certain limits. At high gate-source voltages, the gate oxide breaks down damaging the transistor. In short-channel devices, an excessively large drain-source voltage widens the depletion region around the drain, creating a very large drain current (the effect is called punch through )

23 Small-Signal Model () Conductance Transconductance and body effect transconductance Small signal gain Capacitances of a transistor

24 Small-Signal Model (2) Derived by producing a small increment in a bias point and calculating the resulting increment in other bias parameters. Since the drain current is a function of the gate-source voltage, a voltagedependent current source equal to g m V GS is incorporated. The lowfrequency impedance between G and S is very high. G D V GS g m V GS S Fig: Small-signal model of an ideal MOSFET

25 Small-Signal Model (3) The drain current also varies with the drain-source voltage. This effect can also be modeled by a voltage-dependent current source. G D V GS g m V GS av DS S

26 Small-Signal Model (4) Tied between D and S, the resistor is given by: dvds r 0 = = = di di /dv W 2 μnc λi ox (VGS - V TH) λ 2 L D D DS D G D V GS g m V GS r 0 S

27 Small-Signal Model (5) The bulk potential influences the threshold voltage and hence the gate-source overdrive. The drain current is a function of the bulk voltage (the bulk behaves as a second gate). Modeling this dependence by a current source connected between D and S, the value can be written as g mb V BS G D V GS g m V GS r 0 g mb V BS S

28 Small-Signal Model (6) In saturation region, g mb can be expressed as: di D W dvth g mb = =μnc ox (VGS - V TH) - dvbs L dvbs dvth dvth γ = - = - (2φ F + V SB ) dv dv 2 Also -/2 BS Thus mb m m SB γ g = g = ηg 2 2φ + V As expected, g mb is proportional to g. Last equation also suggests that incremental body effect becomes less pronounced as V SB increases. g m V GS and g mb V BS have the same polarity, i.e., raising the gate voltage has the same effect as raising the bulk potential.
