Last time I tested several 2N7000 Spice models (2005), there was huge
variance between them, and some down-right non-physical behavior.
Has anyone found a better 2N7000 model since then?

I really don't understand the confusion here. The number 2N7000 is a JEDEC = registered number, how can there be a variance at all ?=20 I admit I have very little experience with Spice, but JEDEC is JEDEC, no ?= =20 Going into this "given samples" shit is one thing, but should not be an iss= ue in design usually. Tolerances are one thing. Current sharing amond MOSFE= Ts is another, but I doubt anyone has to match a 2N7000 for that purpose.= =20 In fact I would like to see the scenario in which that would be necessary. = Well not really in practice, what I mean is for one of the seasoned enginee= rs around here to actually explain why the $^%#@ #$$&* you owuld have to do= that. I thought the thing was a simple switcher, maybe use it linear somet= imes, but only if you bought a truckload of them. At least that's what I th= ink.

The number 2N7000 is a JEDEC registered number, how can there be a variance at all ?Typical behaviors could be radically better than the Jedec requirements. Some 2N7002s are ten times as fast as you'd expect from the max rise/fall time specs. Gate leakages can be 8 or so orders of magnitude below the specs. I suspect that one fabbed wafer gets sold as a lot of different part numbers. Nobody really needs 7000+ different transistors. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc jlarkin att highlandtechnology dott com http://www.highlandtechnology.com
