Charge pumping is a well-known technique for characterizing the semiconductor-dielectric interface of MOS structures. Labs can obtain invaluable information about the quality and degradation of a ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Capacitor-based charge pumps (or Q-pumps) generally aren’t useful for sourcing large amounts of current, but they work well in niche ...

The field of quantum metrology aims to define the units of a practical measurement system on true invariants of nature, and is preparing for a possible redefinition of the International System of ...

Charge pumps, also known as inductorless DC/DC converters, are a special class of switching DC/DC converters that use capacitors as energy storage elements. When compared to “inductive” switching ...

“We utilize a frequency-modulated charge pumping methodology to measure quickly and conveniently single “charge per cycle” in highly scaled Si/SiO 2 metal–oxide–semiconductor field effect transistors.

What is a charge pump? A charge pump provides dc-dc voltage conversion using a switch network to charge and discharge two or more capacitors. The basic charge pump switch network toggles between ...

You’d think that the 8086 microprocessor, a 40-year-old chip with a mere 29,000 transistors on board that kicked off the 16-bit PC revolution, would have no more tales left to tell. But as [Ken ...
