CIDER attempts to -provide greater simulation accuracy than a stand-alone circuit or device -simulator can provide. CIDER is based on the sequential mixed-level -circuit and device simulator, CODECS. In common with CODECS, CIDER embeds -the circuit simulator, SPICE3, which provides circuit simulation -capabilities, analytical models for semiconductor devices, and an -interactive user interface. An interface to the captive device simulator, -DSIM, provides accurate, one- and two-dimensional numerical models based -on the solution of Poisson's equation, and the electron and hole current- -continuity equations. The input format of CIDER couples SPICE-like -circuit descriptions to a device description format similar to the one -used by the PISCES device simulator developed at Stanford University. -As a result, CIDER should seem reasonably familiar to designers already -accustomed to both these tools. - -SPICE is a general-purpose circuit simulation program for nonlinear DC, -nonlinear transient, and linear AC analyses. Circuits may contain resistors, -capacitors, inductors, mutual inductors, independent voltage and current -sources, four types of dependent sources, lossless and lossy transmission -lines (two separate implementations), switches, uniform distributed RC -lines, and the five most common semiconductor devices: diodes, BJTs, JFETs, -MESFETs, and MOSFETs. - -WWW: http://infopad.eecs.berkeley.edu/~icdesign/SPICE/ |
