Reliability Investigation of 0.18-μm SOI MOS Transistors at High Temperatures

Abstract

In this paper, we estimate the basic parameters of 0.18-μm SOI MOS transistors in the temperature range from –60 to 300°С and investigate their reliability at high temperatures. The specific characteristics of SOI MOS transistors that manifest themselves at high temperatures should be taken into account when designing high-temperature integrated circuits in order to avoid their premature failures and improve the reliability of electronic devices.
