fT depends on L.

gm/ID Principle
Use to gm/ID principle to find
capacitance
• gm/ID→(fT,I/W,gm/gds)
• fT=gm/cgg, cgg=cgs+cgb+cgd
• cgs/cgg is also gm/ID dependent.
Example
• Assume gm/ID=20, L=120 nm,
VDS=0.6V, I=100uA.
• fT=22.76 GHz
• cgg=gm/fT=13.98 fF
• cgd/cgg=0.29→cgd=4.1 fF
• cgs/cgg=0.75 →Cgs=10.5 fF
Noise
Noise is not deterministic
The value of noise cannot be predicted at any time even
if the past values are known.
Average Power of a Random
Signal
Periodic voltage to a load
resistance.
Observe the noise
for a long time.
It is customary to
eliminate RL from
PAV.
Unit: V2 rather than W.
Power Spectral Density
Sx(f1) has unit of V2/Hz.
PSD shows how much
Power the signal carries
at each frequency.
