ASU_ex04.in : MOSFET DIBL and Subthreshold Slope Calculation

Every software package contains a full set of examples suitable for that version and are installed with the software. If you see examples here that are not in your installation you should consider updating to a later version of the software. These examples can be used by beginners and advanced users for product evaluation, teaching purposes, and self-training.

Determining the threshold voltage, subthreshold slop, and DIBL requires analyzing the transfer characteristic data at different drain voltages. The threshold voltage is determined by identifying the maximum transconductance (gm), drawing a tangent line, and determining where the line intersects with the horizontal axis. The subthreshold slope is determniend from a log-scale plot of the transfer chracteristics in the weak inversion (subthrehold) region. DIBL is determined by comparing the threshold voltages at two different drain biases.
