Leti-UTSOI Compact Model

The Leti-UTSOI compact model is the only one to be totally dedicated to the FDSOI technology. In its recent version, the Leti-UTSOI model has reached its maturity. In collaboration with STM, its robustness was validated by successfully complying with the full test suite recommended by the CMC. The Leti-UTSOI model is now currently used at STM in the IC design division. It is now available in an industrial design-kit. The documentation and some model cards (typical) are available below:
The Leti-UTSOI Verilog-A code can also be obtained contacting LETI UTSOI Developers.

[book] Compact Models for Integrated Circuit Design

 Compact Models for Integrated Circuit Design: 
 Conventional Transistors and Beyond
 Samar K. Saha
Taylor & Francis, 26 Aug 2015 - Technology & Engineering - 545 pages - ISBN 9781482240665

Compact Models for Integrated Circuit Design: Conventional Transistors and Beyond provides a modern treatise on compact models for circuit computer-aided design (CAD). Written by an author with more than 25 years of industry experience in semiconductor processes, devices, and circuit CAD, and more than 10 years of academic experience in teaching compact modeling courses, this first-of-its-kind book on compact SPICE models for very-large-scale-integrated (VLSI) chip design offers a balanced presentation of compact modeling crucial for addressing current modeling challenges and understanding new models for emerging devices.
Starting from basic semiconductor physics and covering state-of-the-art device regimes from conventional micron to nanometer, this text:
  • Presents industry standard models for bipolar-junction transistors (BJTs), metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) field-effect-transistors (FETs), FinFETs, and tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs), along with statistical MOS models
  • Discusses the major issue of process variability, which severely impacts device and circuit performance in advanced technologies and requires statistical compact models
  • Promotes further research of the evolution and development of compact models for VLSI circuit design and analysis
  • Supplies fundamental and practical knowledge necessary for efficient integrated circuit (IC) design using nanoscale devices
  • Includes exercise problems at the end of each chapter and extensive references at the end of the book

Compact Models for Integrated Circuit Design: Conventional Transistors and Beyond is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate courses in electrical and electronics engineering as well as for researchers and practitioners working in the area of electron devices. However, even those unfamiliar with semiconductor physics gain a solid grasp of compact modeling concepts from this book. [more...]

Programme of the 4th Training Course on Compact Modeling

The 4th Training Course on Compact Modeling (TCCM) will take place in Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain) from June 27 to 28 2016.

The 4th TCCM is partially sponsored by the DOMINO EU H2020 project. It will consist a series of lectures conducted by prestigious researchers in the field of modeling of semiconductor devices, dealing with several issues related to the semiconductor device modeling, mostly compact/SPICE modeling. It is a very interesting event to PhD students and young researchers, but can interest senior researchers too. These lectures will be conducted by top experts in the field. 

No doubt the 4th TCCM will be useful to researchers working on compact modeling, but also to researchers working on circuit design, numerical modeling, device characterization and semiconductor device technology.

TCCM is organized by the Department of Electronic, Electrical and Automatic Control Engineering (DEEEiA) of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV), in Tarragona. The General Chair of TCCM is Prof. Benjamin Iñiguez, who is also the Coordinator of the DOMINO project.

Programme of TCCM:

End of the Training Course

Besides, on June 29 1016, the  Workshop on Flexible Electronics (WFE) will take place in Tarragona, too. Attendees to TCCM who work on Flexible Electronics (not necessarily modeling) will have a chance to present recent results on their own. But WFE is open to all researchers.


Registration to both events is open. It is possible to register only to TCCM, or only to WFE or to both. It is quite cheap, in partular for students, and includes lunches, coffee breaks, and in the case of TCCM, a gala dinner.

Finally, on June 30-July 1 the Annual Graduate Student Meeting on Electronic Engineering will be held, consisting of plenary talks by prestigious researchers and student presentations. Registration is free.



I encourage researchers on semiconductor devices and circuit design to attend TCCM!
