Method and Apparatus for Simulating Gate Capacitance of a Tucked Transistor Device

摘要

A method for simulating a tucked transistor device having a diffusion region defined in a semiconductor layer, a gate electrode adjacent a first side of the diffusion region, a floating gate electrode adjacent a second side of the diffusion region, and an isolation structure disposed beneath at least a portion of the floating gate electrode is provided. The method includes receiving a first netlist having an entry for the tucked transistor device in a computing apparatus. The entry defines parameters associated with the gate electrode and the diffusion region. A parasitic capacitance component is added to the entry representing a gate capacitance between the floating gate and the diffusion region in the computing apparatus.
