Model Parameters:

All parameter names for this model are the same between HSpice and ADS except for the addition of Type=2 to indicate the process level model. However, while the parameter names are the same, most default values are different. Additionally, HSpice supports different default values between the NMOS and PMOS implementations.

The ADS defaults are from an earlier version of the Phillips model. This should not affect the translation because the translator will fill in the proper HSpice defaults. Consult your HSpice manual for the HSpice defaults if needed. All defaults supplied by the translator are from HSpice V99.2.

For information on parameter format, refer to Using Parameter Mapping Tables to Understand a Translation.

GaAsFET and JFET Models for SPICE

The following information describes how the various GaAsFET models from SPICE are translated to the corresponding ADS models.

All GaAsFET devices in SPICE reference a model by its instance name. GaAsFET models in SPICE have a keyword

PSpice and HSpice also use a Level parameter to help identify the appropriate model to select. ADS uses the Idsmod parameter to identify the model to use. The SPICE Level is used by the Netlist Translator to determine what value to set for Idsmod and which model to place. Both the Level and Idsmod parameters are listed where available.

Spice3 MESFET Mapping Table displays Spice3 MESFET device and model information and the corresponding device and model information for schematics and netlists in ADS.

Note
HSpice uses the additional SAT (saturation factor) parameter to determine the appropriate model. The combination of the Level and SAT parameters determine the model used.
