Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In this work, we propose a method to configure an ultrahigh resistance of 1GΩ or more on a chip, which is used for I-V conversion circuit, in order to detect ultra-weak currents of several pA ~nA. In our method, a desired resistance value is realized by connecting MOSFETs in the cutoff region in series-parallel. The influence of I-V conversion characteristic, temperature characteristic, area due to the difference in the number of stages of series-parallel connection is confirmed by simulation. Hence, an appropriate configuration method is derived. We also compare with the existing Poly resistance and discuss the practicality of proposed MOSFET resistance.
