Abstract
A user-friendly CAD tool for easily benchmarking models of MOS transistors is presented. The software is integrated in the Cadencereg environment and it is able to test any model supported by the Spectrereg simulator, such as BSIM or EKV. It is built in a modular manner so as to readily incorporate new tests if required, whereas the full set of IEEE recommended benchmarks is already supported. The tool features a GUI interface for setting up the various tests and viewing their results
