Title: Finding out flicker noise coefficient
Post by arupkg on Mar 22^nd, 2012, 8:45pm

How do we find out the flicker noise coefficient for NMOS and PMOS transistors for a given PDK (from the device models or by simulation)?

it is a constant so I guess you can find it from the device models

It is buried in the models, however is often not specified properly

There are ways to plot the noise in most EDA tools.
(Do a AC plot from DC to 5MHZ and configure
the simulator to show the noise.)
