ltspice nmos4 and pmos4

Started by Michael Robinson March 8, 2012
I have to simulate a CMOS circuit and I am going to try it in LTSpice.  The 
dialog box where you can put in parameters for a mos4 device has no place to 
enter parasitics!  That means I need a subcircuit.  To save time is there 
anyplace where I can grab subcircuits for nmos4 and pmos4 devices?  That 
would save a lot of time, I can just change the values. 


I use HSpice and Ngspice, and for 
both the circuit description(netlist) 
is in the form of a text file. So, 
if I want to override the built-in NMOS/PMOS models in any of my designs, 
I simply add a 
.INCLUDE <model file name> 
to my circuit text file (**.cir)
Is there any way to access/edit the
text form of the netlist in LTSpice ?

Does LTspice have the capability to do calculations from W and L to get AD, AS, PD, PS, NRD and NRS? PSpice does. All you need to do is put the equation in the "Template". (All you need to know besides W and L is hdif to "standardize" the equations.) ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, CTO | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona 85048 Skype: Contacts Only | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine.

Well, LTSpice has several different MOS models... Just look into the manual - it took me some time to discover that (described...) feature. Regards, Peter Falkowski
