Hi all, 

As we all know, the threshold voltage reduction is one of the key techniques being used in low power mixed mode IC designs. There've been different techniques outlined in different sources, apart from that I was wondering whether the MOS re-sizing can be used in the same way to realize the requirement. In other words can we use so called short and narrow channel effects in away to facilitate our requirement, while preserving functionality in threshold and sub-threshold regions ? (I'm aware that it could affect the mismatch performance of the device). And do we have a mathematical representation of threshold voltage roll-off ?
