Model parameters

ag2888

Hi,

I am trying to get an idea as to what a device model parameter represents.
Can anyone please suggest where i can get the list for it.
I am specifically looking for the parameters like mobility, Cox, subthreshold factor, TC of threshold voltage, Vth0 of the device etc.

Also i am trying to plot the threshold voltage of a device as per my DC sweep parameter. Can anyone please tell me how should i do that?

    Hi Andrew,

     

    I went through this thread and am interested in plot vth through DC sweep. But I received this warning:

       WARNING (SPECTRE-8282): `M1a' is not a device or subcircuit instance name.

        WARNING (SPECTRE-8287): Ignoring invalid item `M1a:vth' in save statement.

        WARNING (SPECTRE-8282): `M6' is not a device or subcircuit instance name.

        WARNING (SPECTRE-8287): Ignoring invalid item `M6:vth' in save statement.

    I am sure the name is correct and is copied from schematic instance name field.  

     Do you know how to fix it?

     

    Thanks,

     Alex
