Allen - 2010 Lecture 100 – MOS Capacitor Model and Large Signal Model Dependence (3/24/10) Page 100-15 DEPENDENCE OF THE LARGE SIGNAL MODEL ON VOLTAGE What is Voltage Variation? Voltage variation is the influence of power supply voltage on the component. (There is also power supply influence on the circuit called power supply rejection ratio, PSRR. We will deal with this much later.) Power supply variation comes from: 1.) Influence of depletion region widths on components. 2.) Nonlinearity 3.) Breakdown voltage Note: Because the large-signal model for the MOSFET includes all the influences of voltage on the transistor, we will focus on passive components except for breakdown. CMOS Analog Circuit Design Lecture 100 – MOS Capacitor Model and Large Signal Model Dependence (3/24/10) © P.E. Allen - 2010 Page 100-16 Models for Voltage Dependence of a Component 1.) ith-order Voltage Coefficients In general a variable y = f(v) which is a function of voltage, v, can be expressed as a Taylor series, y(v = V0) y(V0) + a1(v- V0) + a2(v- V0)2+ a3(v- V0)3 + ··· where the coefficients, ai, are defined as, df(v) | 1 d2f(v) | a1 = dv v=V0 , a2 = 2 dv2 v=V0 , …. The coefficients, ai, are called the first-order, second-order, …. voltage coefficients. 2.) Fractional Voltage Coefficient or Voltage Coefficient Generally, only the first-order coefficients are of interest. In the characterization of temperature dependence, it is common practice to use a term called fractional voltage coefficient, VCF, which is defined as, 1 df(v) | VCF(v=V0) = f(v=V0) dv v=V0 parts per million/V (ppm/V) or more simply, 1 df(v) VCF = f(v) dv parts per million/V (ppm/V) CMOS Analog Circuit Design © P.E.

L R = t W VR where VR is the reverse bias voltage from the resistor to the well. This effect is worse for well resistors because the doping concentration of the resistor is smaller.

Allen - 2010 Page 100-18 Voltage Coefficient of Polysilicon Resistors Why should polysilicon resistors be sensitive to voltage? There is a small depletion region between the polysilicon and its surrounding material that has a very small dependence on the voltage between the polysilicon and the surrounding material.

Solution The TCF can be calculated from the above expression as TCF = 0.01 + 0.155 = 0.165. Since the TCF is change per degree, the reverse current will increase by a factor of 1.165 for every degree (or °C) change in temperature. Multiplying by 1.165 five times gives an increase of approximately 2. Thus, the reverse saturation current approximately doubles for every 5°C temperature increase. Experimentally, the reverse current doubles for every 8°C increase in temperature because the reverse current is in part leakage current. CMOS Analog Circuit Design © P.E.

Allen - 2010 Page 100-28 Resistor Dependence on Temperature Diffused Resistors: The temperature dependence of resistors depends mostly on the doping level of diffused and implanted resistors. As the doping level or sheet resistance increases from 100 / to 400 /, the temperature coefficient varies from about +1000 ppm/°C to +4000 ppm/°C. Diffused and implanted resistors have good thermal conduction to the substrate or well. Polysilicon Resistors: Typically has a sheet resistance of 20 / to 80 / and has poor thermal conduction because it is electrically isolated by oxide layers. Metal: Metal is often used for resistors and has a positive temperature coefficient. Temperature Coefficients of Resistors: n-well = 4000 ppm/°C Diffusion = +1500 ppm/°C Polysilicon = 500-2000 ppm/°C Ion implanted = +400 ppm/°C Metal = +3800 ppm/°C (aluminum) CMOS Analog Circuit Design © P.E.
