Abstract: A transistor includes a channel region with a first portion and a second portion. A length of the first portion is smaller than a length of the second portion. The first portion has a higher threshold voltage than the second portion. The lower threshold voltage of the second portion allows for an increased ON current. Despite the increase attained in the ON current, the higher threshold voltage of the first portion maintains or lowers a relatively low OFF current for the transistor.

Abstract: A system for modeling a semiconductor device comprises a pre-processing module and a simulation module. The pre-processing module stores at least one virtual model equation associated with at least one terminal of a semiconductor device. The pre-processing module receives an actual voltage value associated with the at least one terminal. The pre-processing module then calculates at least one modified voltage value for the at least one terminal based at least in part upon the virtual model equation and the actual voltage value. The simulation module receives the modified voltage value, and generates a simulation result for the semiconductor device based at least in part upon the modified voltage value.

Abstract: A system comprises an integrated circuit comprising one or more transistors that receive a supply voltage. The system also includes a reference transistor operable to receive a constant current and produce a reference voltage that varies according to temperature or process variations, wherein the reference transistor behaves similarly to at least one of the one or more transistors with respect to temperature or process variations. The system also includes a comparator operable to compare the reference voltage with the received supply voltage and produce an output based at least in part on the difference between the reference voltage and the received supply voltage. The system further includes a controller operable to adjust the received supply voltage based at least in part on the output of the comparator.
