Abstract
The study on the RF substrate circuit is necessary to model RF output characteristics of deep submicron MOSFETs below 0.2$\mum$ gate length that have bun commercialized by the recent development of Si submicron process. In this paper, direct extraction methods are developed to apply for a simple substrate resistance model as well as another substrate model with connecting resistance and capacitance in parallel. Using these extraction methods, better agreement with measured Y22-parameter up to 30 GHz is achieved for 0.15$\mum$ CMOS device by using the parallel RC substrate model rather than the simple resistance one, demonstrating the RF accuracy of the parallel model and extraction technique. Using this model, bias and gate length dependent curves of substrate parameters in the RF region are obtained by increasing drain voltage of 0 to 1.2V at deep submicron devices with various gate lengths of 0.11 to 0.5㎛ These new extraction data will greatly contribute to developing a scalable RF nonlinear substrate model.
