spectre : plotting device parameters

swdesigner
swdesigner over 13 years ago

I've used a flavor of SPICE in the past that let you plot (save the waveform for plotting with a viewer) MOSFET parameters such as VGST and GM, etc.

Has anyone had success with doing this in spectre? That SPICE manual I used also specified what MOSFET parameters were available for output.

I tried 

save xlx5.MN9.MN:IDS

and 

save xlx5.MN9:* 

and

save xlx5.MN9.MN:*

Hope for my results browser to show me all the parameters that a print OP info for the device showed. No luck.

My ultimate goal is to extract the true channel current of a MOSFET in a transient simulation. If I use the terminal currents, then those include the currents due to CGS and CGD and can be misleading.

Thanks!

    I'm surprised about that. I'll do some testing...
