Multiple-Finger MOSFET Modeling for MS/RF Circuit Simulation

This paper focuses on the modeling of the multiplefinger MOS transistors. Observation on the characteristics of the multiple-finger devices shown normalized saturation current, Idsat, (for various W but fixed L, in Figure 1) degrades with increases of number of fingers and it is worse for wider W. The conventional modeling of multiple finger devices, which simply multiplies the current of a single finger device by number of fingers, does not work for deep submicron device. The degradation comes from the parasitic resistance introduced during the measurement 1. Further study of transistor behavior with TCAD simulation revealed that resistance crowding effect in the drain and source in multiple-finger MOS diffusion and contact degrades the performance. With proper modeling of the resistance the current can be accurately predicted and the new model can be easily implemented in SPICE simulator.
