Compact MOS modeling for analog circuit simulation

Abstract

Analog applications of MOS transistors in integrated circuits impose enhanced requirements on the compact MOS models used in circuit simulators. Here we present for the Philips MOS MODEL 9 the successful confrontation with these analog requirements, the scaling of parameters with geometry, the accuracy of the model over the whole geometry range of a process, its capabilities in the description of various processes at least down to 0.35 /spl mu/m and a comparison with advanced analog models available in commercial circuit simulators.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
