PMOS |
Also found in: Acronyms, Wikipedia | 0.03 sec. |
PMOS(Positive channel MOS) Pronounced "p-moss." A type of microelectronic circuit in which the base material is positively charged. PMOS transistors were used in the first microprocessors and are still used in CMOS. They are also used in low-cost products (calculators, watches, etc.). See MOSFET. PMOS [′pē‚mȯs] (electronics) Metal-oxide semiconductors that are made onn-type substrates, and whose active carriers are holes that migrate betweenp-type source and drain contacts. Derived fromp-channel metal-oxide semiconductor. How to thank TFD for its existence?

By optimizing shallow trench isolation (STI) stress, sidewall stress, and silicon nitride (SiN) stress on the gate, it was possible to improve the performance of both NMOS and PMOS. Available in volume production today, the PIC16F630 and PIC16F676 devices feature Microchip's PMOS Electrically Erasable Cell (PEEC) process technology, which provides best-in-class erase/write endurance, retention, and disturb reliability for both program and on-chip data EEPROM memory. These devices also provide a wide (20V max) operating voltage, while their PMOS pull-up and NMOS pull-down transistors provide a 17V signal swing (VCC - VEE). |
