ABSTRACT
Fluctuations in intrinsic linear Vt, free of impact of parasitics, are measured for large arrays of NMOS and PMOS devices on a testchip in a 150nm logic technology. Local intrinsic σVT, free of extrinsic process, length and width variations, is random, and worsens with reverse body bias. Although the traditional area-dependent component is dominant, a significant component of the fluctuations in small devices depends only on device width or length.
