Gate leakage can have several detrimental effects on electronic devices:
Increased Power Consumption: Leakage currents contribute to higher static power consumption, reducing battery life in portable devices. Thermal Management: Additional heat generated by leakage currents can impact the thermal management of the device, potentially leading to overheating. Device Reliability: Prolonged gate leakage can degrade the gate oxide, leading to reliability issues and reduced lifespan of the device.
