  • As the integration ratio and operation speed increase, it has become an important problem to estimate the dissipated power during the design procedure as a method to reduce the TTM(time to market). This paper proposed a prediction model to estimate the maximum dissipated power of a CMOS logic gate. This model uses a calculational method. It was formed by including the characteristics of MOSFETs of which a CMOS gate consists, the operational characteristics of the gate, and the characteristics of the input signals. As the modeling process, a maximum power estimation model for CMOS inverter was formed first, and then a conversion model to convert a multiple input CMOS gate into a corresponding CMOS inverter was proposed. Finally, the power model for inverter was applied to the converted result so that the model could be applied to a general CMOS gate. For experiment, several CMOS gates were designed in layout level by $0.6{\mu}m$ layout design rule. The result by comparing the calculated results with those from HSPICE simulations for the gates showed that the gate conversion model has within 5% of the relative error rate to the SPICE and the maximum power estimation model has within 10% of the relative error rate. Thus, the proposed models have sufficient accuracies. Also in calculation time, the proposed models was more than 30 times faster than SPICE simulation. Consequently, it can be said that the proposed model could be used efficiently to estimate the maximum dissipated power of a CMOS logic gate during the design procedure.

  • The primary dose effects on an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) irradiated with a $^{60}Co$ gamma-ray source are found in both of the components of the threshold shifting due to oxide charge trapping in the MOS and the reduction of current gain in the bipolar transistor. In this letter, the IGBT macro-model incorporating irradiation is implemented, and the electrical characteristics are analyzed by SPICE simulation and experiments. In addition, the collector current characteristics as a function of gate emitter voltage, VGE, are compared with the model considering the radiation damage of different doses under positive biases.

  • An accurate large-signal BSIM4 macro model including new empirical bias-dependent equations of the drain-source capacitance and channel resistance constructed from bias-dependent data extracted from S-parameters of RF MOSFETs is developed to reduce $S_{22}$-parameter error of a conventional BSIM4 model. Its accuracy is validated by finding the much better agreement up to 40 GHz between the measured and modeled $S_{22}$-parameter than the conventional one in the wide bias range.

  • This paper presents a Electrical characteristics of the Memristor device using the PSPICE for circuit analysis. After making macro model of the Memristor device for circuit analysis, electric characteristics of the model such as time analysis, frequency and DC analysis according to the input voltage were performed by PSPICE simulation. Also, we made simple circuits of memristor series and parallel structure and analyzed the simulated SPICE results. Finally, we made a memristor-capacitor (M-C) circuit. charge and discharge characteristics were analyzed. In case of input pulse signal of 250 Hz, the Memristor-capacitor circuit showed delay time of 0.6ms, rising time of 0.58 ms and falling time of 1.6 ms.
