This paper addresses misconceptions about MOS-FET mismatch for analog desi . V, mismatch does not follow a simplistic 1/( s " area) law, especially for widelshort and narrowllong devices, which are common geometries in analog circuits. Further, V, and gain factor are not appropriate parameters for modeling mismatch. A physically based mismatch model can be used to obtain dramatic improvements in prediction of mismatch. This model is applied to MOS-FET current mirrors to show some non-obvious effects over bias, geometry, and multiple unit devices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
