The present invention presents methods for modeling the high frequency and
noise characterization of MOSFETs. The models may be readily implemented
as part of a SPICE or other simulation in a design flow. In particular,
this invention is capable of providing a sub-circuit representation of a
MOSFET that can accurately predicate a MOSFET's low frequency, high
frequency, and noise characterizations. An interface is described through
which a user may simultaneously optimize all of these characterizations.
Further, methods are presented for building models that can predicate the
variations in MOSFETs due to manufacturing processes and generate a
corresponding corner model.
