Oxide Capacitance in MOSFET Formulas

Oxide Capacitance refers to the capacitance associated with the insulating oxide layer in a Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) structure, such as in MOSFETs. And is denoted by C_ox. Oxide Capacitance is usually measured using the Farad for Capacitance. Note that the value of Oxide Capacitance is always positive.
