A detailed guide to SPICE-oriented design and testing of electronic devices SPICE allows engineers to simulate individual semiconductor devices and electronic circuits and perform many different analyses needed for tasks such as verification of circuit designs and prediction of circuit performance. However, these simulations are only as good as the device models and parameters used in the simulations. Wrong models yield unreliable results. Introduction to Device Modeling and Circuit Simulation link electronic device modelling to the simulation of these devices using the SPICE program. Ideal as a reference for professional engineers or as a text for courses in semiconductor device modelling, it presents
* A combination of background device physics and technology
* A review of existing device models
* A set of new and improved models compatible with the most advanced technology
* Descriptions of device models and examples of circuit simulations
Following an introduction to SPICE, this book covers charge transport in semiconductors, two-terminal devices, bipolar junction transistors, field-effect transistors, and advanced FET modelling. With its concentration on modelling and simulation, Introduction to Device Modeling and Circuit Simulation is the core book on SPICE-oriented semiconductor device modelling.
