High-voltage MOSFET Modeling and Simulation Considerations

This paper gives a brief overview on key aspects of high-voltage (HV) MOSFET modeling and simulation applications in terms of the modeling approaches, model physics, model performance, model extraction and model simulator compatibility, etc. The HV MOSFET compact models under review include the commonly used proprietary models like Cadence level 101 and LDMOS, Synopsys level 66, and the new public-domain model HiSIM_HV.
