Ischia, giugno 2006Riunione Annuale GE 2006 Conclusions Voltage DC breakdown limits are too conservative when the stress is at RF Oxide degradation due to RF stress is explained and modeled by considering the RMS value of the oxide field as the stress triggering parameter Higher voltage peaks can be tolerated leading to new design perspectives in CMOS RF circuits BD effects on class-E PA operation could be tolerated using proper circuit topologies
