Star-Hspice Quick Reference Guide

MOSFET Models
• The Philips JUNCAP Parasitic Diode Model were added.
• The model parameter JUNCAP=1 selects the JUNCAP
Model, JUNCAP=0 (default) selects the Hspice ACM
Model.
• Gate noise current is not available.

Also, see “LEVEL 50 Philips MOS9 Model” in the
Star-Hspice Manual.
Using the Philips MOS9 Model in Star-Hspice
• Set LEVEL=50 to identify the model as Philips MOS
Model 9.
• The default room temperature is 25°C in Star-Hspice, but
27°C in SPICE3.
• Always include TR, which corresponds to TREF in other
LEVELs in Star-Hspice. The default for TR is 21.0°C, to
match the Philips simulator.
• The model has its own charge-based capacitance model;
CAPOP is ignored for this model.
• The model uses analytical derivatives for the conductances;
DERIV is ignored for this model.
• DTEMP can be used with this model.
