Compact MOS-Transistor Distortion Model (mos1000)

The mos10.00 model is an experimental model based on the thesis of Ronald van Langevelde: "A compact MOSFET Model for Distortion Analysis in Analog Circuit Design", Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, 1998.

Note: In noise analysis, mos10.00 instances will not generate any contribution, since there are no noise sources included (yet) in the mos10.00 model.

(c) Philips Electronics N.V. 1999

In extension to the description, a minimum conductance gmin is inserted between the drain and source node to aid convergence. The value of gmin is set by an options statement, default = 1e-12 S.

This device is supported within altergroups.

This device is dynamically loaded from the shared object /<install_dir>/tools.lnx86/cmi/lib/5.0/libphilips_sh.so.
