Abstract :
The way from the compact model development to implementation into a commercial circuit simulator is often time consuming. Moreover, it is not always straightforward how to implement behavior models in SPICE-like simulators. A capability of the analog hardware description language (AHDL) Verilog-A to handle state-of-the-art compact bipolar transistor modeling mixed with behavioral substrate coupling modeling has been demonstrated.
