comparator offset  simulation
May 07th, 2010, 1:18am
 
Hi all,

Does anybody know how to include transistor mismatch (also cap mismatch) into simulation in Cadence ADE?

The transistor model I have from foundry does have something like "

model nch bsim3v3  {
    1: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=1.2e-06 - dxl lmax=2.1e-05 wmin=1.2e-06 dxw wmax=1.01e-04 tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
    2: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=5e-07 - dxl lmax=1.2e-06 - dxl wmin=1.2e-06 - dxw wmax=1.01e-04 tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
    3: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=2.4e-07 lmax=5e-07 - dxl wmin=1.2e-06 dxw wmax=1.01e-04 tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
    4: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=1.2e-06 - dxl lmax=2.1e-05 wmin=6e-07 dxw wmax=1.2e-06 - dxw tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
    5: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=5e-07 - dxl lmax=1.2e-06 - dxl wmin=6e-07 - dxw wmax=1.2e-06 - dxw tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
    6: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=2.4e-07 lmax=5e-07 - dxl wmin=6e-07  dxw wmax=1.2e-06 - dxw tnom=25 xl=3e-08
....
....
    9: type=n minr=1e-60 lmin=2.4e-07 lmax=5e-07 - dxl wmin=3e-07 wmax=6e-07 - dxw tnom=25 xl=3e-08 + dxl flkmo
....            
}

not sure if that is something related.

Thanks!

I can't find out any design issue in your post again.
Your question is no more than easy issue related to specific vendor's simulator.

There are many simulators working in Cadence ADE.
What simulator do you use ?

I assume you use Cadence Spectre as simulator.

The followings are descriptions for "binning".

}



Descriptions for mismatch are like following.
Quote:
statistics {
       process {
               vary toxn  dist=gauss std=toxn_std
               vary dvthn dist=gauss std=dvthn_std
               vary dlxn  dist=gauss std=dlxn_std
               vary dxwn  dist=gauss std=dxwn_std
               vary cjn   dist=gauss std=cjn_std
               vary cjswn dist=gauss std=cjswn_std
               vary cjswgn dist=gauss std=cjswgn_std
               vary cgon  dist=gauss std=cgon_std
               vary hdifn dist=gauss std=hdifn_std

       }

       mismatch {
               vary toxn  dist=gauss std=mtoxn_std
               vary dvthn dist=gauss std=mdvthn_std
               vary dlxn  dist=gauss std=mdlxn_std
               vary dxwn  dist=gauss std=mdxwn_std
               vary cjn   dist=gauss std=mcjn_std
               vary cjswn dist=gauss std=mcjswn_std
               vary cjswgn dist=gauss std=mcjswgn_std
               vary cgon  dist=gauss std=mcgon_std
               vary hdifn dist=gauss std=mhdifn_std

       }
}
