Advanced Linear Devices Inc. has announced the Quad/Dual N-Channel Matched Pair Zero Threshold MOSFETs that are matched at the factory using the company's EPAD[R] CMOS technology to achieve a threshold voltage of 0.0V with a range of variation from 0.01V to -0.01V and an offset voltage of 2 mV. With this device, the operating voltage of a circuit will no longer be limited by the gate threshold voltage or the bipolar turn-on voltage. A circuit using this device can be constructed to operate on as little as a 20 mV supply. On more complicated circuits, consisting of many stages stacked on top of each other, system operating voltage is ...
