(Note: This is Part 1 of a two-part article. Click here for Part 2.) SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuits Emphasis, often written as Spice) environment becomes an analysis platform of ...

Modeling the performance of an analog device with SPICE is one of the standard techniques used by circuit designers to perform initial characterization and performance analysis before putting together ...

(i) Device Physics Intuition for System-Level Optimization: Developed a strong, evidence-based intuition for how fundamental transistor parameters (Vt, gm, leakage, capacitance) directly influence ...

The following scripts plot the read, write and hold margins of an sram bitcell after running a spice simulation. The simulation performed is a slow transient solution to calculate the DC operating ...

When simulating electronic circuits with SPICE, the use of user-defined parameters through the .PARAM directive is a fundamental tool for improving the flexibility and understanding of simulation ...

Guest columnist Hany Elhak, analogue product marketing manager at Synopsys, believes that when carrying out SPICE simulation, accurate should not mean sluggishWhen SPICE simulation was invented at UC ...

I got a nice note from the irrepressible Mary Dunnie that Texas Instruments has improved its Tina-TI Spice tool. It is available in simplified and traditional Chinese, Japanese and Russian, as well as ...

Abstract: Designing a mixed-signal integrated hardware requires the mixed simulation for legacy digital blocks and analog circuits, which are usually represented by the Verilog description language ...

ROHM has announced the release of new Level 3 (L3) SPICE models, which deliver significantly improved convergence and faster simulation performance. Since power semiconductor losses greatly impact ...
