Hi,
I am trying to measure Idrive process spread for PMOS/NMOS (TSMC 0.18um). The test setup i have used is below :-
The NMOS size i used is actually 50/0.18..and simulation is with specter with conditions being Vgs =1.8 and Idrive to be measured at Vds = 1.8 v
Problem : Id is reaching...
Can anyone tell me the difference between these 2 parameters.
This is normally specified for I/O buffers.
I am attaching a memory datasheet which uses these specs
Thanks in adv
....also, I did try the method given in Hollberg Appendix..
which uses the y=mx + b method.....I could not figure out how is measuring 'b'....
........if someone has done this...can you please throw some light on it?
Thanks in adv

Re: Need help.

...please remember following 2 rules for current mirrors..
1. always use Channel length which is 4-5 * Lmin ...(though this is ideal for DSM i.e < 0.25u)....the best thing wud be for u to characterize the MOS and see for which 'L' Id slope is less...use that length
2...
Hi experts...
I am trying to characterize a MOS for it's design parameter..
Can you tell me How I can measure 'lambda' using analog artist?

Hey, I guess the illustration is all screwed up....well one terminal is the gate....and connect drain & source to bulk connected to VSS forms the other terminal (ofcourse - u now have a problem, a capacitance is formed only between a node a ground)
Regards,
Normally, if a process is a dual poly process one goes in for
dual poly caps. But most processes are single poly processes.
It is a common practise to use the MOS cap a capacitor

This is nothing but an invertor and is common in I/O circuit design.
Primarily used for situations where the X'tors are LV devices and you want to operate of higher power supply.
This is primarily to handle VDSmax violations.

converting parasitic netlist to schematic
Some companies have a methodology of "production schematic" & "design schematic". The first actually accounts for parasitics and is used before the lay-out is done by rough estimation of parasitics.
If u want to do this, IC5 gives u a option. 'Q' on a...
calculating gate capacitance
Well,
here is a idea i can give u, w.k.t i = c* dv/dt , apply a unit ramp i/p
to gate of MOS, and measure current, it will be equal to the cap in magnitude.
