A double-pole four-throw double-gate radio-frequency complementary-metal-oxide-semicon- ductor (DP4T DG RF CMOS) switch for operating at the 1 GHz is implemented with 45-nm CMOS process technology. This proposed RF switch is capable to select the data streams from the two antennas for both the transmitting and receiving processes. For the development of this DP4T DG RF CMOS switch we have explored the basic concept of the proposed switch circuit elements required for the radio frequency systems such as drain current, threshold voltage, resonant frequency, return loss, transmission loss, VSWR, resistances, capacitances, and switching speed.展开更多

The difference between the influences of VD and VG on GIDL current is shown quantitatively by IDIFF, especially in 90nm scale. The difference is due to different hole tunnellings, Furthermore, the maximum IDIFF（IDIFF,MAX） varies linearly with VDG in logarithmic coordiuates and also VDG at IDIFF,MAX with VF which is the characteristic voltage of IDIFF, The relations are studied and some related expressions are given.展开更多
