We present simulations for ultra-thin body, fully-depleted, double-gate (DG) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) devices that can be readily optimized for both static power loss and perfor...
This paper first presents an accurate and efficient method of estimating the short circuit energy dissipation and the output transition time of CMOS buffers. Next the paper descri...
In this paper, we discuss a methodology to design and synthesize analog CMOS components such as RF amplifiers. The inputs of the synthesis tool are the circuit specifications desc...
