Formula name Description and formula
−
Serial resistance calculated by high frequency CV:
RS = (AT(MAVG(G_OR_R,5)/(WF*MAVG(CHF,5)),MAXPOS(MAVG(CHF,5))))^2/
((1+(AT(MAVG(G_OR_R,5)/(WF*MAVG(CHF,5)),MAXPOS(MAVG(CHF,5))))^2)
*(AT(MAVG(G_OR_R,5),MAXPOS(MAVG(CHF,5)))))
Intermediate parameter for calculation of CC:
AR = G_OR_R-(G_OR_R^2+(WF*CHF)^2)*RS
Corrected high frequency capacitance by compensating serial resistance:
CC = ((G_OR_R^2+(WF*CHF)^2))*CHF/(AR^2+(WF*CHF)^2)
Offset for high frequency capacitance (entered by user):
HOFFSET = 0
QGAIN Gain for quasistatic capacitance (entered by user):
QOFFSET Offset for quasistatic capacitance (entered by user):
Adjusted quasistatic capacitance by using QGAIN and QOFFSET:
CQADJ = QGAIN*CQS+QOFFSET
Gain for calculated high frequency capacitance that is calculated:
HGAIN = AT(MAVG(CQS,5)/MAVG(CC,5),MAXPOS(MAVG(CC,5)))
Adjusted high frequency capacitance by using HGAIN and HOFFSET:
CHADJ = HGAIN*CC+HOFFSET
Oxide capacitance:
COX = MAX(MAVG(CHADJ,5))+1E-15
CMIN Minimum capacitance from high frequency:
CMIN = MIN(MAVG(CHADJ,5))+1E-15
Calculated thickness of oxide (in nanometers):
TOXNM = 1E7*AREA*EOX/COX
Inversed square of high frequency capacitance:
INVCSQR = 1/(MAVG(CHADJ,5))^2
