An Improved SPICE Macro Model for Floating Body Partially Depleted SOI MOSFETs

An improved SPICE macro model based on BSIMSOI4 has been proposed for accurate modeling of short-channel floating-body PD-SOI MOSFETs. The kink and self-heating effects are modeled individually using empirical I-V equations. For both low-frequency and RF inductive effects, frequency-dependent empirical equations of intrinsic output capacitance and conductance are newly used to accurately model the overlapping behavior of both effects in the low-frequency region. This model shows improved Y22-parameter fitting accuracy compared to conventional models. To account for substrate loss not considered in BSIMSOI4, the substrate resistance is externally added to the model, improving S-parameter accuracy at high frequencies. The proposed RF-based extraction method allows precise modeling of overlap and junction capacitance parameters. Validation against measured S-parameters at 0.1 μm gate length up to 20 GHz confirms the accuracy of the improved model and parameter extraction across various bias conditions.

Abstract

An improved SPICE macro model based on BSIMSOI4 has been proposed for accurate modeling of short-channel floating-body PD-SOI MOSFETs. The kink and self-heating effects are modeled individually using empirical I-V equations. For both low-frequency and RF inductive effects, frequency-dependent empirical equations of intrinsic output capacitance and conductance are newly used to accurately model the overlapping behavior of both effects in the low-frequency region. This model shows improved Y22-parameter fitting accuracy compared to conventional models. To account for substrate loss not considered in BSIMSOI4, the substrate resistance is externally added to the model, improving S-parameter accuracy at high frequencies. The proposed RF-based extraction method allows precise modeling of overlap and junction capacitance parameters. Validation against measured S-parameters at 0.1 μm gate length up to 20 GHz confirms the accuracy of the improved model and parameter extraction across various bias conditions.
