An accurate and efficient high frequency noise simulation technique for deep submicron MOSFETs

Based on an active transmission line concept and two-dimensional (2-D) device simulations, an accurate and computationally efficient simulation technique for high frequency noise performance of MOSFETs is demonstrated. Using a Langevin stochastic source term model and small-signal equivalent circuit of the MOSFET, three intrinsic noise parameters (/spl gamma/, /spl delta/, and c) for the drain noise and induced gate noise are calculated. Validity and error analysis for the simulation are discussed by comparing the simulation results with theoretical results as well as measured data.
