5 Acts as a Voltage-Controlled Resistor v GD =v GS v DS v GS 5

6 NMOS Operation as v DS Increases 1. For small v DS : v GD =v GS v DS v GS 2. As v DS is increased for fixed v GS : v GD=v GS v DS -> decreases 3. When v DS =v DSsat =v GS V t v GD =V t channel pinches off at drain-end 4. As v DS is increased v DS v DSsat =v GS V t v GD V t channel L decreases. 6

7 Curve Flattens With Increased v DS 7

8 NMOS Enhancement Model Background If v GS V t,the drain to source current, i DS, increases until: v DS v GS V t The MOSFET saturates at this value of v DS and (except for an Early Effect ) i DS does not increase with further increases in v DS. This channel current is proportional to the channel width W, inversely proportional to its length L, and proportional to its transconductance parameter, k' n : ' k n = n C ox = cm2 V sec F cm2 C /V = 2 cm V sec cm = A 2 V 2 C ox is the capacitance per unit area of the gate-channel interface and n is the fabrication-dependent channel electron mobility. 8

9 Uniform Channel Width (Small v DS ) Model Drain-to-source current with fixed gate-to-source voltage is proportional to drain to source voltage: g DS =k n L v GS V t i D =i DS =g DS v DS =k n L v GS V t v DS r DS =1/ g DS = voltage-controlled resistance k n Intuitively, conductance g DS is proportional to the conductor cross-section - channel width, W, times channel depth (set by the gate to source voltage, v GS -V t ) and the conductivity of the channel material. Conductance is inversely proportional to L, the length of the current path. 1 L v GS V t 9

10 NMOS Enhancement Model Structure A satisfactory v DS - i DS model for the triode region is a quadratic expression that is linear for small v DS and reaches a maximum where the device saturates: Small v DS, where i D =i DS =k n L [ v GS V t v DS 1 2 v DS Saturation, where v DS =v GS V t : i D =i DS =k n 2 ] 1 2 v 2 v V v : DS i =i =k GS t DS D DS n L v GS V t v DS [ L v GS V t v GS V t 1 2] 2 v GS V t = k ' n 2 i D =i DS = k ' n 2 W L v GS V t 2 Triode region W L v GS V t 2 Saturation region 10

11 NMOS Enhancement Models For the NMOS enhancement mode (strong-inversion) transistor: For: For: v GS V t 0 i DS =0 v GS V t 0 (Channel non-existent) (Channel exists) v DS v GS V t 2 ] i D =i DS =k n L [ v GS V t v DS 1 2 v DS (Triode) v DS v GS V t i D =i DS = 1 2 k n L v V GS t 2 (Saturation) 11

12 Channel Length Modulation v DS v DSsat =v GS V t v GD V t L= Lv DS process parameter withunits V 1 Modify the saturation model to account for L: i D =i DS = 1 2 k n L v GS V t k n L L v GS V t 2 = 1 2 k n L L L 1 L 1 L/ L v GS V t 2 i D =i DS 1 2 k n L 1 L L v GS V t 2 = 1 2 k n L v GS V t 2 1 n v DS 12

13 V A Early Voltage Relation to Lambda Saturation: i D =i DS 1 2 k n L v GS V t 2 1 n v DS small-signal output-resistance r o = V A I D = 1 I D where I D = 1 2 k n L V GS V t 2 slope=1/r o V A = 1 Triode: [ i D =i DS k n L v GS V t v DS 1 2 v ] 2 1 DS nv DS 13
