Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is very usefull if you are developing a FET model. It explains common approximations used in FET models for circuit simulation, parameter extraction methods and describes problems which should be avoided.
The book was published in 1988, so the modern models (and simulation problems!) are not covered. Still, there is a lot to be learned from this book.
(Ed Oxner)"But how to develop a Spice model is not the subject of this text."
True, it does not say how to put the model's code into the circuit simulator. I suppose it is justified, because each simulator is a bit different. However, the book does describe FET models in good detail, providing one with the information which can be used in developing the new model.
BTW, here's "how-to" make a SPICE model:
0. Write equations which describe your model (Hint: the Divekar's book can be usefull at this stage)
1. Download SPICE source code (which includes some FET models)
2. Look at the source code of an existing model of the device you wish to model. If there is none, look at any other model's code.
3. Modify that model's code (i.e. put your own equations instead of that model's)
