[SOLVED] Using Mentor tools model file as library file in hspice ..........

[himansg]

Hi,

I need the library file tsmc180nm for simulation in hspice. I found a file tsmc018.mod in Mentor Tools model folder. Can I copy the text from this file and use it as library file in hspice ??

thanx....

If it's a SPICE model file, why not? Does it include a (BSIM) VERSION and a LEVEL no.?
Like, e.g., in the foll. header:

* DATE: Jun 15/04
* LOT: T44E                  WAF: 3009
* Temperature_parameters=Default
...
...
.MODEL N NMOS (                             LEVEL   = 53 
+VERSION = 3.1           TNOM    = 27           TOX     = 4.1E-9
...
