Abstract
A semiconductor device may include a substrate, active circuitry on the substrate and including differential transistor pairs, and threshold voltage test circuitry on the substrate. The threshold voltage test circuitry may include a pair of differential test transistors replicating the differential transistor pairs within the active circuitry, with each test transistor having a respective input and output, and at least one gain stage configured to amplify a difference between the outputs of the differential test transistors for measuring a threshold voltage thereof. The differential transistor pairs and the pair of differential test transistors may each include spaced apart source and drain regions, a channel region extending between the source and drain regions, and a gate overlying the channel region. Each of the channel regions may include a superlattice.
