Operating point parameters for BSIM-IMG devices

Raghu Rao
Raghu Rao over 8 years ago

DC Operating point info for devices using BSIM-IMG model (mainstream model for FDSOI transistors) seems to contain only charge and capacitance information.

BSIM transistor models have traditionally included relative terminal voltages, transconductance, threshold voltage, etc. which are very useful for design. They're included in Operating point parameters for BSIM4, BSIM-CMG and even UTSOI (non-VT based model) models. Wondering if there's a reason they're excluded for BSIM-IMG devices or if they're just not included because the model is used relatively rarely. Does anyone have insights into this? The question is probably too specific - but any insight is much appreciated! :)

    The earlier version had an early (and quite limited) implementation of bsimimg; over time more versions have been added as the model has been developed. In the later MMSIM151 version you're using, there's support for versions 102.60, 102.61, 102.70 and 102.80 of the model.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
