The electronics on any off-earth mission will be exposed to wide temperature swings and harmful radiation due to being outside of the Earth’s protective ionosphere. It is crucial that any data path present be immune to these detrimental effects. The introduction of galactic radiation can not only cause the onboard electronics to fail due to device degradation and single event latchup but can also lead to background radiation being coupled into the signal path as unwanted noise, degrading the signal to noise ratio. Unwanted noise can cause total failure by increasing the noise level thus decreasing the signal to noise ratio below one or by causing errors such as single event upsets. The wide temperature swing can cause device degradation and eventually failure. This issue is commonly mitigated by the introduction of an environment chamber but such an enclosure adds unnecessary mass and typically requires a large amount of current to effectively keep the electronics in an Earth-like temperature. The large current implies high power dissipation which is an unnecessary strain on the battery and can shorten the lifetime of a mission where every kilowatt-hour is crucial to success. The solution to these two non-trivial obstacles is to design an electronic circuit such that it can operate in a wide range of temperatures and can withstand the galactic radiation that it will inevitably encounter during its mission’s lifetime. The following thesis will document the design, simulation, and testing of a SiGe BiCMOS low voltage differential signal driver for space borne applications. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1:

  • Role of Mosfets Transconductance Parameters and Threshold Voltage in CMOS Inverter Behavior in DC Mode
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 28 July 2017 doi:10.20944/preprints201707.0084.v1 Article Role of MOSFETs Transconductance Parameters and Threshold Voltage in CMOS Inverter Behavior in DC Mode Milaim Zabeli1, Nebi Caka2, Myzafere Limani2 and Qamil Kabashi1,* 1 Department of Engineering Informatics, Faculty of Mechanical and Computer Engineering ([email protected]) 2 Department of Electronics, Faculty of Electrical and Computer Engineering ([email protected], [email protected]) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +377-44-244-630 Abstract: The objective of this paper is to research the impact of electrical and physical parameters that characterize the complementary MOSFET transistors (NMOS and PMOS transistors) in the CMOS inverter for static mode of operation. In addition to this, the paper also aims at exploring the directives that are to be followed during the design phase of the CMOS inverters that enable designers to design the CMOS inverters with the best possible performance, depending on operation conditions. The CMOS inverter designed with the best possible features also enables the designing of the CMOS logic circuits with the best possible performance, according to the operation conditions and designers’ requirements. Keywords: CMOS inverter; NMOS transistor; PMOS transistor; voltage transfer characteristic (VTC), threshold voltage; voltage critical value; noise margins; NMOS transconductance parameter; PMOS transconductance parameter 1. Introduction CMOS logic circuits represent the family of logic circuits which are the most popular technology for the implementation of digital circuits, or digital systems. The small dimensions, low power of dissipation and ease of fabrication enable extremely high levels of integration (or circuits packing densities) in digital systems [1-5].

  • Logic Styles with Mosfets
    Logic Styles with MOSFETs NMOS Logic One way of using MOSFET transistors to produce logic circuits uses only n-type (n-p-n) transistors, and this style is called NMOS logic (N for n-type transistors). An inverter circuit in NMOS is shown in the figure with n-p-n transistors replacing both the switch and the resistor of the inverter circuit examined earlier. The lower transistor in the circuit operates as a switch exactly as the idealised switch in the original circuit: with 5V on the Gate input, the conducting channel is created in the transistor and the “switch” is closed; with 0V on the Gate there is no channel and the transistor is non-conducting - the “switch” is open. The depletion mode transistor is produced by adding a small amount of donor material to the The upper transistor, called a depletion mode channel region of a n-p-n transistor, so that there are a small number of free electrons in the channel transistor, operates as a resistor to limit current even when there is no electric field across the flow when the “switch” is closed. This transistor is insulator. This provides a connection through the a modified n-p-n transistor that always has a transistor for all Gate voltages. The conductivity of channel present and is always conducting, although the channel is lowest (Resistance is highest) when the conductivity is low when there is 0V on the the Gate is at 0V. When the Gate is at 5V and more Gate and higher when 5V is on the Gate: see Box.

  • MOSFET - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    MOSFET - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOSFET MOSFET From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET, MOS-FET, or MOS FET), is by far the most common field-effect transistor in both digital and analog circuits. The MOSFET is composed of a channel of n-type or p-type semiconductor material (see article on semiconductor devices), and is accordingly called an NMOSFET or a PMOSFET (also commonly nMOSFET, pMOSFET, NMOS FET, PMOS FET, nMOS FET, pMOS FET). The 'metal' in the name (for transistors upto the 65 nanometer technology node) is an anachronism from early chips in which the gates were metal; They use polysilicon gates. IGFET is a related, more general term meaning insulated-gate field-effect transistor, and is almost synonymous with "MOSFET", though it can refer to FETs with a gate insulator that is not oxide. Some prefer to use "IGFET" when referring to devices with polysilicon gates, but most still call them MOSFETs. With the new generation of high-k technology that Intel and IBM have announced [1] (http://www.intel.com/technology/silicon/45nm_technology.htm) , metal gates in conjunction with the a high-k dielectric material replacing the silicon dioxide are making a comeback replacing the polysilicon. Usually the semiconductor of choice is silicon, but some chip manufacturers, most notably IBM, have begun to use a mixture of silicon and germanium (SiGe) in MOSFET channels. Unfortunately, many semiconductors with better electrical properties than silicon, such as gallium arsenide, do not form good gate oxides and thus are not suitable for MOSFETs.

  • Design and Implementation of 4 Bit Carry Skip Adder Using Nmos and Pmos Transmission Gate
    EasyChair Preprint № 2561 Design and Implementation of 4 Bit Carry Skip Adder Using Nmos and Pmos Transmission Gate Ashutosh Pandey, Harshit Singh, Vivek Kumar Chaubey and Utkarsh Jaiswal EasyChair preprints are intended for rapid dissemination of research results and are integrated with the rest of EasyChair. February 5, 2020 CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION In the field of electronics, a digital circuit that performs addition of numbers is called an adder or summer. In various kinds of processors like computers, adders have many applications in the arithmetic logic units, as well as in other parts, where these are used to compute table indices, addresses and similar operations. Mostly, the common adders operate on binary numbers, but they can also be constructed for many other numerical representations, such as excess-3 or binary coded decimal (BCD). It is insignificant to customize the adder into an adder-subtractor unit in situations where negative numbers are represented by one's or two's complement. The usage of power efficient VLSI circuits is required to satiate the perennial need for mobile electronic devices. The calculations in these devices ought to be performed using area efficient and low power circuits working at higher speed. The most elementary arithmetic operation is addition; and the most basic arithmetic component of the processor is the adder. Depending upon the delay, area and power consumption requirements; certain adder implementations such as ripple carry, carry-skip, carry select and carry look ahead are available. When large bit numbers are used, the ripple carry adder (RCA) is not very efficient. With the bit length, there is a linear increase in delay.
