1138K-9 Low-Voltage, Low-Power Digital BiCMOS Circuits Circuit Design, Comparative Study and Sensitivity Analysis Innovative techniques for low-voltage, minimum power BiCMOS design State-of-the-art BiCMOS design techniques are critical to delivering the low-voltage, minimum-power, maximum-performance circuits demanded by today's highest value applications. This comprehensive review of the field focuses on the latest design concepts, in-depth analyses, and methodologies-all fully supported by experimental data, and illuminated by the insights of two world-recognized experts. The authors introduce the fundamentals of low-voltage, low-power design, with a comprehensive description of BiCMOS process technology that highlights techniques for maximizing performance. They present a new low-power ultra-low capacitance BiCMOS process, and preview other key trends in BiCMOS process technology.
Comprehensive coverage also includes: * A new methodology for constructing a device model for a given wafer, using device characterization tools and experimental data * Analytical and experimental characterization of sub-half micron MOS devices * Full-swing BiCMOS circuits, bootstrapping, and transient saturation * Quasi-Complementary BiCMOS, Schottky BiCMOS/BiNMOS, high-beta BiCMOS, and feedback BiCMOS circuits-including the latest advances * Comparative evaluations of how leading BiCMOS circuits are currently applied in low-voltage, low-power environments The book offers exceptionally thorough coverage of predicting and managing BiCMOS circuit delay time and power dissipation sensitivities. In particular, it offers a convenient, reliable solution for calculating worst-case speed degradation given a set of device and process parameter tolerances. For every professional moving towards lower power, higher performance circuits, Low-Voltage, Low-Power Digital BiCMOS Circuits will be an essential resource.
