Description Single halo (SH) and double halo (DH) metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) have been reported to exhibit excellent short channel performance in the sub 100 nm regime. In this work, the effect of process variations such as gate oxide thickness, implantation parameters, channel length and temperature are systematically investigated on the device and analog circuit performance for all these technologies. Our simulation results on differential amplifiers and current mirrors show that, for an identical V(t) mismatch in conventional (CON), DH, and SH devices, SH MOSFETs show a lower variation in the circuit parameters. It is found that, for a specified circuit parameter variation, almost a 25% higher V(t) mismatch is tolerable with SH technologies as compared to the CON technologies. We also report in this work that, better saturation characteristics observed with SH devices improve the linearity of amplifiers when compared with the CON and DH devices, biased at identical voltage gains. However, one needs to account for the increased body bias induced non-linearity with SH technologies as demonstrated using circuit simulations for source follower and simple sample and hold circuits.
