Engineering:MASTAR MOSFET Model

From HandWiki

The MASTAR (Model for Analog Simulation of subThreshold, saturation and weak Avalanche Regions)[1][2] is an analytical model of Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors, developed using the voltage-doping transformation (VDT) technique.[3][4][5][6] MASTAR offers good accuracy and continuity in current and its derivatives in all operation regimes of the MOSFET devices. The model has been successfully used in CAD/EDA simulation tools.[7]

The official ITRS definition of the acronym MASTAR is Model for Assessment of CMOS Technologies And Roadmaps.[8] This software[9][10][11] is developed by STMicroelectronics and is freely distributed on ITRS organization web site.
