Abstract

A circuit can include at least one pair of deeply depleted channel (DDC) transistors having sources commonly coupled to a same current path; and a bias circuit configured to provide bias currents to the drains of the DDC transistors; wherein each DDC transistor includes a source and drain doped to a first conductivity type, a substantially undoped channel region, and a highly doped screening region of the first conductivity type formed below the channel region.
