P MOS Transistor

Block Selection Tree: Circuit ElementsSemiconductorP MOS Transistor

 

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.
