A Novel High-Gain Amplifier Circuit Using Super-Steep-Subthreshold-Slope Field-Effect Transistors

The benefits of steep-Subthreshold Swing (SS) devices, though plentiful at the device-level, have yet to be fully exploited at the circuit-level. This is evident from a look at the Three-Independent-Gate Field-Effect Transistor (TIGFET), a device renown for its ability for polarity reconfiguration. At the same time, its demonstrated dynamic control of the subthreshold slope beyond the thermal limi...
