摘要
An experimentally confirmed accurate CMOS gate delay model is applied to the CMOS sing oscillators with interconnect loading. The optimum gate oxide thickness T-ox should he chosen differently as interconnect loading varies. Guidelines in choosing optimum T-ox for different interconnect Loading, combined with channel length and power supply scaling, are obtained.
