MOSFET Body-Effect Shift Calculator
Compute the MOSFET threshold-voltage shift caused by source-body reverse bias.
Description
Compute the MOSFET threshold-voltage shift caused by source-body reverse bias.
MOSFET Body-Effect Shift Calculator is a focused tool for the following task. Compute the MOSFET threshold-voltage shift caused by source-body reverse bias. It reports ΔVT from the values you provide rather than inventing measurements, coefficients, or professional judgment that are not part of the input.
When to use MOSFET Body-Effect Shift
Use this semiconductor calculation for first-order device, material, fabrication, interconnect, packaging, or reliability estimates when every coefficient and unit convention is known.
- VSB (V)
- Required number in V. Source-to-body reverse bias.
- Gamma (V^0.5)
- Required number in V^0.5. Body-effect coefficient.
- φF (V)
- Required number in V. Fermi potential phiF in volts.

How MOSFET Body-Effect Shift works
Compute the MOSFET threshold-voltage shift caused by source-body reverse bias. Inputs are interpreted exactly in the displayed units and the calculation returns the following fields without presentation rounding.
- ΔVT (V)
- Returned number in V. Threshold-voltage increase caused by the body effect.
Limitations and assumptions
- Material composition, geometry, process history, temperature, electric field, bias, interfaces, parasitics, and fitted parameter ranges can invalidate a compact semiconductor model.
- VSB must be at least 0.
- Gamma must be at least 5e-324.
- φF must be at least 0.
- Use finite inputs in the displayed units, preserve source measurements and assumptions, and independently verify consequential decisions.
Alternative or Complementary approaches
Compare the estimate with measured process data, current device documentation, and a higher-fidelity circuit, field, thermal, quantum, or TCAD model when the decision requires it.
