LEVEL1_Model:LEVEL 1 MOSFET Model
The SPICE and Spectre Level 1 MOSFET models are translated to the ADS MOSFET LEVEL1_Model. For translation information on the MOSFET device, refer to Mxxxxxxx for SPICE or MOSFET Device for Spectre.
For more information on the ADS model, place the model in a schematic and choose Edit > Component > Edit Component Parameters to view the model parameters. You can also click Help in the component editor dialog box for additional information.
Example SPICE Command Line:
.model nch nmos level=1 vto=0 kp=2e-5 ...
Example Spectre Command Line:
model nchmod1 mos1 vto=0.78 gamma=0.56 kp=0.8675e-4 ...

Comments:
ADS does not support NRD, RDC, NRS or RSC MOSFET parameters. If RD or RS are not given, they will be calculated as follows:
RD=NRD*RSH+RDC
RS=NRS*RSH+RSC
