Abstract

To allow the application of floating silicon on insulator (SOI) technology on analog circuits, the full body-fixing structure can be used. However, this technique may cause some shortcomings in scalability and layout compatibility. The partial trench isolation (PTI) technique is proposed, in which the body potential is fixed through the region under the trench oxide. With the PTI technology, the floating-body effects are eliminated while maintaining SOI-inherent merits and scalable deep sub-quarter micron LSIs can be realized using accumulated bulk design properties without layout modification.
