Developing custom SPICE compatible transistor model

farhan89
farhan89 over 8 years ago

I am trying to develop a simple transistor model in which I could just vary drain-source and gate-source voltage and calculate the drain current. I have drain current equation as well as the parameters values on which it is dependent. Can I write my own SPICE model (without any .MODEL statement) with this information and run it with spectre/hspice in ADE ?. Any examples for such models ?

    You can co-simulate between spectre and simulink or AMS Designer and Simulink. Both spectre and AMS Designer can use Verilog-A models, so there's no more of an integration challenge than there is if you use a SPICE model in Spectre and co-simulate with Simulink.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
