SPICE Model Parameters for the MOSIS Junction Isolated NPN BJT Updated 11/17/92 The following DC SPICE model parameters have been extracted from test transistors fabricated on a recent MOSIS SCNA run (N25Y). These parameters lack the AC information that is needed for fully defining circuit behavior because we do not yet have the necessary test equipment at MOSIS for measuring the AC parameters. It will be several months before we are able to acquire equipment for full AC parameter extraction. Capacitance measurements are based upon a preliminary set of test structures that will be updated in the near future. The accuracy of the capacitance measurements is not at a level that we would normally like to have. The SPICE parameters for the BJT's will be updated at intervals, but we expect that it will be a few more months before we are able to provide BJT parameters for every SCNA fabrication run. =========================================================================== The following parameters are for an NPN transistor constructed from a basic building block unit designed to reduce RE, RB, and RC. The basic unit approximately consists of two minimum emitter regions flanked on both sides by base contact strings and then ringed by collector contacts, leaving a small access for the metal to the base and emitter. This diagram shows the general topology of the basic unit: E B C ^ ^ ^ | | | [C] [C] | | [C] [C] | | [C] Emitter Size: 2X1 [C] [B] [E] [B] [C] [C] [B] [E] [B] [C] [C] |_______| [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] Emitter size refers to the concatenation of this basic unit in the X-direction to produce alternate emitter/base contacts and closing the collector ring around the unit array. E B C ^ ^ ^ | | | [C] [C] [C] [C] | | [C] [C] _______| | [C] [C] | | | [C] [C] [B] [E] [B] [E] [B] [C] Emitter Size: 2X2 [C] [B] [E] [B] [E] [B] [C] [C] |_______|_______| [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] [C] Typical parameters for different emitter-size npn transistors ============================================================= Note: The 1X1 transistor represents a minimum design rule device. It is included for reference, but it is not likely that it is suitable for more than the most rudimentary designs. .MODEL BN1X1 NPN + BF=82 IS=7.943E-17 NF=9.9063E-01 NE=1.3893 VAF=71.4 + IKF=1.025E-02 ISE=8.268E-17 RE=17.4 RC=752.42 RB=1.213E+03 + RBM=13.08 ISC=1.643E-15 NC=1.0266 + CJE=0.0976E-12 MJE=0.5050 VJE=0.85 CJC=0.0981E-12 MJC=0.4990 VJC=0.80 + CJS=0.1800E-12 MJS=0.2033 VJS=0.70 * AREA OF TRANSISTOR * AE=64 um^2 PE=32 um AB=336 um^2 PB=80 um AC=1536 um^2 PC=160 um .MODEL BN2X1 NPN + BF=82 IS=1.588E-16 NF=9.9563E-01 NE=1.3356 VAF=57.1 + IKF=2.3067E-02 ISE=1.267E-16 RE=12.7 RC=420.00 RB=1.213E+03 + RBM=7.53 ISC=3.363E-15 NC=1.0202 + CJE=0.1952E-12 MJE=0.5050 VJE=0.85 CJC=0.18815E-12 MJC=0.4990 VJC=0.80 + CJS=0.2326E-12 MJS=0.2033 VJS=0.70 * AREA OF TRANSISTOR * AE=128 um^2 PE=64 um AB=644 um^2 PB=102 um AC=2064 um^2 PC=182 um .MODEL BN2X2 NPN + BF=82 IS=2.362E-16 NF=9.9942E-01 NE=1.3288 VAF=58.0 + IKF=4.6580E-02 ISE=2.362E-16 RE=8.426 RC=209.00 RB=539.00 + RBM=3.69 ISC=6.225E-15 NC=1.0237 + CJE=0.3094E-12 MJE=0.5050 VJE=0.85 CJC=0.3360E-12 MJC=0.4990 VJC=0.80 + CJS=0.3240E-12 MJS=0.2033 VJS=0.70 * AREA OF TRANSISTOR * AE=256 um^2 PE=128 um AB=1150 um^2 PB=146 um AC=3010 um^2 PC=226 um .MODEL BN2X4 NPN + BF=82 IS=6.777E-15 NF=1.0030 NE=1.3199 VAF=59.4 + IKF=6.690E-02 ISE=4.654E-16 RE=4.856 RC=150.00 RB=539.00 + RBM=4.96 ISC=1.395E-14 NC=1.0382 + CJE=0.7808E-12 MJE=0.5050 VJE=0.85 CJC=0.6317E-12 MJC=0.4990 VJC=0.80 + CJS=0.5068E-12 MJS=0.2033 VJS=0.70 * AREA OF TRANSISTOR * AE=512 um^2 PE=256 um AB=2162 um^2 PB=234 um AC=4902 um^2 PC=314 um .MODEL BN2X8 NPN + BF=82 IS=1.413E-15 NF=1.0048 NE=1.3086 VAF=61.9 + IKF=7.799E-02 ISE=9.707E-16 RE=3.707 RC=121.00 RB=539.00 + RBM=4.96 ISC=2.587E-14 NC=1.0410 + CJE=1.5616E-12 MJE=0.5050 VJE=0.85 CJC=1.2230E-12 MJC=0.4990 VJC=0.80 + CJS=0.8723E-12 MJS=0.2033 VJS=0.70 * AREA OF TRANSISTOR * AE=1024 um^2 PE=512 um AB=4186 um^2 PB=410 um AC=8686 um^2 PC=490 um ========================================================================= If you have any questions please call Vance Tyree at (310) 822-1511.
