This type of block represents a p-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET). This model represents a standard four-pin P MOS, while there are is another MOS derivate (Three Terminal MOSFET) available.
The characteristics of the P MOS depends on the chosen model. See the vendors web page for more details about a specific P MOS model.
When adding such a transistor into the device library, the shown numbering is the pin order in a spice .subcircuit/.model statement.
he block is characterized by the properties listed below. To modify the values, use the Block Properties – Parameters dialog box.
Channel Length |
Length of the conducting channel beneath the gate. |
Channel Width |
Width of the conducting channel beneath the gate. |
Initial State |
State can be ON or OFF. It initializes the device for the calculation of the DC bias solution. |
Note that these parameters do only appear, if the transistor has been imported as a .model statement and not as a general subcircuit.
