6.012 Microelectronic Devices and Circuits Spring 2005 April 20, 2005 Quiz #2 Problem #points NAME 1___________ RECITATION TIME 2___________ 3___________ Total______________ General guidelines (please read carefully before starting): • Make sure to write your name on the space provided above. • Open book: you can use any material you wish. But no computers. • All answers should be given in the space provided. Please do not turn in any extra material. • You have 120 minutes to complete the quiz. • Make reasonable approximations and state them, i.e. low-level injection, extrinsic semiconductor, quasi-neutrality, etc. • Partial credit will be given for setting up problems without calculations. NO credit will be given for answers without reasons. • Use the symbols utilized in class for the various physical parameters, i.e. Na, τ, ε, etc. • Pay attention to problems in which numerical answers are expected. An algebraic answer will not accrue full points. Every numerical answer must have the proper units next to it. Points will be subtracted for answers without units or with wrong units. In situations with a defined axis, the sign of the result is also part of the answer. Unless otherwise stated, use: q = 1.6 X 10-19 C kT/q = 25 mV at room temperature ni = 1010 cm-3 for silicon at room temperature εSi = 10-12 F/cm εox = 3.45X10-13 F/cm 11. (30 points) A CMOS inverter has the following voltage transfer characteristics and transistor data. VIN = 1.2V 3V VOUT (VOLTS) WP/1.5µ NMOS Data VIN = 1.5V VIN VOUT µnCox = 50 µA/V2 6µ/1.5µ VTn = 0.5V PMOS Data µpCox = 25 µA/V2 VIN (VOLTS) VTp = -0.5V VIN = 1.8V a) Calculate Wp such that –IDp = IDn = 100µA at VIN = VM. 2b) Calculate the NMOS transconductance, gmn, at VIN = VM. c) Calculate (λn+λp). 3An inverter with a p-channel current source has the same current 100µA flowing through the p and n channel device at VIN=VM is shown below. This inverter has different p-channel sizing but the same transistor data. NMOS Data µnCox = 50 µA/V2 VTn = 0.5V PMOS Data µpCox = 25 µA/V2 VTp = -0.5V 3V 24/1.5 6/1.5 VOUT VB VIN d) What is the value of the VB such that –IDp = IDn = 100µA at VIN = VM? 4e) Calculate the voltage gain at VIN = VM. 52. (35 points) You are given a pn junction diode where you have microscopy and chemical staining techniques to determine the area of the diode is 10-4cm2 and the n-type region is degenerately doped (>>1019cm-3). You have access to a capacitance-voltage measurement system and have measured three data points and have been asked to determine some of the diode parameters. V C -1.0V 0.68pF 0V 1pF 0.6V 3.2nF Note: If you could not calculate some of the parameters, leave your answer in terms of those unknown parameters. a) Calculate the depletion region width at thermal equilibrium, xpo. 6b) Calculate the built-in potential φB for this diode. c) Calculate the doping concentration of the p-type region of the diode. 7d) Calculate the physical width of the p-type region. Ignore the depletion region. 83. (35 Points) A silicon npn bipolar transistor with Ebers-Moll parameters Is(Si) = 10-15A, and βF(Si)=100 is biased as shown below. IB=100µA VCE=2V a) What is the region of operation? Explain your answer. 9b) Calculate the collector current Ic. c) Calculate the base-emitter voltage, VBE. 10d) A second npn bipolar transistor is fabricated with the emitter and collector regions consisting of Si, while the base region consists of another semiconductor, called SiGe, which has an intrinsic carrier concentration ni(SiGe) = 1 x 1011 cm-3. Assume that the diffusivities Dn and Dp in SiGe are identical to those for Si, and that the width of the emitter, base, and collector regions are the same in both devices, i.e. WE(Si)=WE(SiGe), WB(Si)=WB(SiGe), and WC(Si)=WC(SiGe). For both devices, NdE=1019 cm-3, NaB=1017 cm-3, and NdC=1016 cm-3. Assume that recombination only takes place at the contacts. For VBE=0.6V and VBC=-1.4V, sketch the minority carrier densities in the emitter, base, and collector, for both the Si and SiGe transistors, on the axes below (note that the space-charge regions are omitted and only the quasi-neutral regions are shown). Label the sketches with the numerical values at the contacts and at the edges of the space-charge regions. (i.e. neglect the space-charge regions) E B C (Si) (Si) (Si) -WE 0 WB WB+WC E (Si) B (SiGe) C (Si) -WE 0 WB WB+WC 11e) For the Si and SiGe bipolar transistors and bias conditions given in (d), calculate the ratio of the collector saturation currents, IS(SiGe)/IS(Si). f) For the Si and SiGe bipolar transistors and bias conditions in (d), calculate the ratio of the forward active current gains, βF(SiGe)/βF(Si). 12g) The Si and SiGe bipolar transistors in (d) are now biased in the forward active region with the same VBC, and VBE adjusted such that the collector currents of the two devices are equal, i.e. Ic(Si)=Ic(SiGe). Under these bias conditions, calculate the ratio of the input resistances of the two devices, rπ(SiGe)/rπ(Si). 13MIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.edu 6.012 Microelectronic Devices and CircuitsSpring 2009 For information about citing these materials or our Terms of Use, visit:
