摘要：
In this brief, a novel offset-cancellation (OC) technique is proposed, utilizing differential pair Charge-Trap Transistors (CTTs) to cancel offset voltage (VOS). The threshold voltage (Vth) degradation of programmed CTTs is characterized and modeled in TSMC 22-nm technology. By utilizing the Vth degradation model of CTTs, an asynchronous programming scheme is proposed to selectively program one of the CTTs based on the differential Vth ( $\Delta $ Vth) in each programming (PRG) operation of the differential pair CTTs. The experiment shows that the $\Delta $ Vth effectively reduces to less than 1mV, and displays negligible retention loss at 27 degrees C and 85 degrees C based on the differential pair CTTs and asynchronous programming scheme.
