PMOS transistors are less vulnerable to substrate noise since they’re placed in separate wells; designers implement guard rings to attenuate the substrate noise propagation. However, substrate noise ...

Even as industry moves into the era of the high k metal gate (HKMG) and FinFET transistor, chipmakers continue to seek ways to improve device performance. One of the latest advances and the subject of ...

For years—decades, in fact—the NMOS transistor world has been on cruise control. NMOS is naturally faster and its performance has scaled better than PMOS. PMOS has had a cost advantage. But lately, it ...

X-Fab Silicon Foundries has added 375V power transistors to the devices available from its 180nm deep trench isolation BCD-on-SoI platform chip fab. The second generation of its XT018 super-junction ...

All operational amplifier (op-amp) datasheets have an input voltage range limitation called the common-mode range. Strictly speaking, the common-mode voltage is the average voltage on the two inputs ...

LTSpice is a tool that every electronics nerd should have at least a basic knowledge of. Those of us who work professionally in the analog and power worlds rely heavily on the validity of our ...
