I looked at the Cadence / OrCAD site and they make no mention of BSIMSOI.
That particular model may not digest well. PSpice is not really oriented at IC
design where you'd usually encounter the BSIM models. You might check the
various free SPICEs though.
Can you provide me the .lib and .olb file of this SOI MOSFET model? I want to simulate the Id/Vg characteristics of PDSOI MOSFET as well as FDSOI MOSFET. Do I need different models for them. If yes, I would request you to kindly share them with us. I am am currently working on NMOS/PMOS at level 2. Do I need higher levels for SOI MOSFET? Can they be simulated on a laptop with basic configuration?
I don't think LEVEL 7 of Pspice is SOI model.
It is basically a BSIM4 implementation which models various mosfet physical effects in sub-100nm regime (like GIDL,GISL etc).
What you are probably looking is a BSIMSOI model, which is unified model for PD and FD SOI.
I am afraid it is not implemented in PSPICE as yet.

Are you sure about it? I have seen yesterday a cadence pspice online reference manual where it is mentioned that SOI models have been developed (model types: nmosoi, pmosoi) for PSPICE but I dont have these models with me. Check the link **broken link removed** , page 381.
If someone can help me give this model to me or let me know how to implement it, it would be of great.
I just looked at the reference manual. Looking carefullty, it nowhere mentions pspice. It's always cadence spice. Also the document date is - Dec 1998. I think that time Pspice was owned by Microsim. So definitely it is not talking about pspice.
Cadence offers multiple spice simulators. The document could be talking about other one. May be the one known as "Spectre" now a days. I am not sure though.

Well Pspice is quice good, but for this particular simulation you should be using other simulator like spectre. I am sure there would be other simulators supporting BSIMSOI, which I am not aware. Just do a web search, you'll get many.

After extensive search, I could find that HSPICE has very good support for SOI MOSFET simulations using BSIM models from Berkeley. Therefore, I am planning to migrate to HSPICE for my work. By the way, PSPICE is surely an excellent simulator.
