HiSIM Version 1.0 Model Released in UTMOST III

Introduction

HiSIM is a MOSFET model for SPICE circuit simulation that has been developed by Hiroshima University and STARC Company. This model present several advantage on the extraction point of view, with a reasonable number of parameters, a physical reliability of the equations for a wide range of geometries (down to 0.1um) and a unified description of devices characteristics for all bias conditions. It has been implemented in Silvaco Spice Simulator, SmartSpice and in our current extraction software UTMOST III.
