FinFET model parameter

Saeed Gharagoz
I have a FinFET model parameter and I need to use to simulate a circuit. How can I do it? Should I only change the file extension from .pm to .scs and copy it where everything else is? Or should modify the existing file? And any idea where can I get 22nm MIGFET model? Thanks

  •  Vandana,

    Using CMI is only necessary if you are going to integrate a model (written in C/C++) into the simulator which doesn't exist already. That would typically only be done by somebody who has detailed modelling and software experience, and only if a standard model doesn't exist.

    You're talking more about using an existing model card, i.e. a file containing model parameters. Are you trying to use this from the Analog Design Environment or by using spectre from the command line? Normally if using ADE you'd have a design kit which would take care of tying up the device symbols and the corresponding models. Knowing more about your use model and what you're actually trying to do will help me (or someone else) give you a sensible answer.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
