threshold voltage [′thresh‚hōld ‚vōlĀ·tij] (electronics) In general, the voltage at which a particular characteristic of an electronic device first appears. The voltage at which conduction of current begins in apnjunction. The voltage at which channel formation occurs in a metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor. The voltage at which a solid-state lamp begins to emit light. (nucleonics) The lowest voltage at which all pulses produced in a Geiger counter by any ionizing event are of the same size, regardless of the size of the initial ionizing event.

Z-RAM technology harnesses the floating body effect of silicon on insulator (SOI) semiconductor devices and provides manufacturing advantages over standard bulk silicon memory technologies. Z-RAM's one transistor memory bitcell is made possible by harnessing the Floating Body Effect (FBE) found in circuits fabricated using SOI (silicon-on-insulator) wafers. ISi's portfolio of patented inventions in the area of ultra-dense semiconductor memory technology that exploits the floating body effect of SOI devices was first presented in 2001 at the IEEE International SOI Conference. |
