1) The document discusses MOSFET threshold voltage including the factors that affect it such as work function difference, gate voltage to change surface potential, depletion charge, and fixed charges. It also discusses how substrate bias affects threshold voltage. 2) The threshold voltage equation is presented showing dependence on various factors. Body effect and how substrate bias impacts threshold voltage is then explained. 3) An example calculation is shown to find the voltage Vx for a given circuit using the threshold voltage equation and body effect parameter gamma. References on analog CMOS design are also listed.

The value of gate-to-source voltage VGS needed to cause surface
inversion (to create the conducting channel) is called the threshold
voltage VT.
Increasing the VGS (gate to source voltage) above and beyond VT will
not affect the surface potential and the depletion region width. They
will remain approximately constant and equal to their values attained
at the onset of surface inversion.

The main four physical components of the threshold voltage are


1) The work function difference between the gate and the channel
2) The gate voltage component to change the surface potential
3) The gate voltage component to offset the depletion charge
4) The gate voltage component to offset the fixed charges in the
gate-oxide and in the silicon-oxide interface.

 The threshold voltage of a MOSFET is affected by the voltage which
is applied to the back contact, which is called Body Effect (Substrate
bias effect). The voltage difference between the source and the
bulk, VBS changes the width of the depletion layer and therefore also
the voltage across the oxide due to the change of the charge in the
depletion region.
 Substrate can be thought of as a second gate, and is sometimes
referred to as the back gate, and accordingly the body effect is
sometimes called the back-gate effect.
