Every software package contains a full set of examples suitable for that version and are installed with the software. If you see examples here that are not in your installation you should consider updating to a later version of the software. These examples can be used by beginners and advanced users for product evaluation, teaching purposes, and self-training.

The threshold voltage of a MOSFET is the minimum gate to source voltage required to create a conductive channel between the source and drain terminals. Below the threshold voltage, the MOSFET is off and very little current folws through the channel. In this region, the subthreshold swing tells us how fast we can turn the device off. Devices with a good turn-off characteristics have subthreshold swings between 70 and 80 mV/decade. This deck demonstrates how to calcualte the threshold voltage and the subthreshold swing of a MOSFET device.
