3 Introduction There are different diode models implemented in the simulators (ordered from low to high complexity). Berkeley-SPICE Diode 1975, University of Berkeley, often implemented as diode level 1 with additional enhancements Fowler-Nordheim Diode (often implemented as diode level 2) Juncap2 model 2009, A.J. Scholten, M. Durand, G.D.J. Smit, and D.B.M. Klaassen, all NXP, also included in the MOSFET model PSP Diode_CMC model v1.0.0 Several companies contributed, standard of Compact Modeling Coalition (CMC) in 2010 Diode_CMC model v2.0.0 Implementation by Hiroshima University, addition of high injection and reverse recovery modelling concepts from HiSIM- Diode model, production release in Sept 2015 (veriloga model) 3

4 Features of diode models Features of Berkeley-SPICE model Forward characteristics, reverse leakage current, temperature dependent saturation current, series resistance, diffusion capacitance, nonlinear depletion capacitance, charge storage with transit time parameter, reverse breakdown, flicker noise Additional features of Juncap2 model Geometrical scaling: bottom, STI-edge, and gate-edge components Shockley-Read-Hall generation/recombination current, both in forward and reverse mode of operation Trap-assisted tunneling current, both in forward and reverse mode of operation Band-to-band tunneling current Avalanche and breakdown Shot noise 4
