1 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 1 Lecture #39 ANNOUNCEMENTS Late projects will be accepted –by 1:10PM Monday 4/30: 20 pt penalty –by 1:10PM Friday 5/4: 50 pt penalty Extra office hour with Frank today: 3-4PM in 382 Cory Quiz #6 Review Session this Friday? OUTLINE The MOSFET: Sub-threshold leakage current Gate-length scaling

2 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 2 Sub-Threshold Leakage Current We had previously assumed that there is no channel current when V GS < V T. This is incorrect. If  S >  F, there is some inversion charge at the surface, which gives rise to sub-threshold current flowing between the source and drain:

4 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 4 How to minimize S?

5 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 5 MOSFET Scaling MOSFETs have scaled in size over time –1970’s: ~ 10  m –Today: ~50 nm Reasons: –Speed –Density

6 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 6 –I DS  as L  (decreased effective “R”) –Gate area  as L  (decreased load “C”) –Therefore, RC  (implies faster switch) Benefit of Transistor Scaling

7 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 7 Circuit Example – CMOS Inverter

8 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 8  d is reduced by increasing I Dsat

9 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 9 Constant-Field Scaling Voltages and MOSFET dimensions are scaled by the same factor  >1, so that the electric field remains unchanged

10 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 10 Constant-Field Scaling (cont.) Circuit speed improves by  Power dissipation per function is reduced by  2

11 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 11 V T Design Trade-Off Low V T is desirable for high ON current: I Dsat  (V DD - V T )  1 <  < 2 But high V T is needed for low OFF current:  V T cannot be scaled aggressively! Low V T High V T I OFF,high VT I OFF,low VT V GS log I DS 0

12 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 12 Since V T cannot be scaled down aggressively, the power-supply voltage (V DD ) has not been scaled down in proportion to the MOSFET channel length

13 Spring 2007EE130 Lecture 39, Slide 13 Generalized Scaling Electric field intensity increases by a factor  >1 N body must be scaled up by  to control short-channel effects Reliability and power density are issues
