BSIM4 Version 7.0

GIDL/GISL Model

A new model selector GIDLMOD=1 is introduced to decouple Vd from Vg through new parameters RGIDL, KGIDL and FGIDL (same for GISL).

(-283)

DIBL/Rout Model

A new function tanh() is introduced to capture the Vds effect in long channel devices.

(-284)

where DVTP2, DVTP3, DVTP4, and DVTP5 are new model parameters.

Temperature Dependence of Subthreshold Leakage Current

The new temperature dependence of subthreshold leakage current is modeled by:

(-285)

where tnfactor, TETA0, and tvoffCV are the new model parameters.

New Model Selector for MTRLMOD=0 and MTRLMOD=1 Compatibility

A new model selector MTRLCOMPATMOD=1 is introduced to make MTRLMOD=0 and MTRLMOD=1 consistent.
