Abstract

The laborious task of implementing a new device model in a circuit simulator has long been recognized as a painful bottleneck to device modeling. In contrast to the conventional circuit simulators which employ a built-in model library approach, iSMILE generates and links all the necessary codes automatically from a minimal set of model descriptions contained in a user's model input file.Users are completely shielded from the internal complexity of the program when implementing new models. This flexibility of extraction and by comparing circuit simulation results in terms of performance and accuracy.iSMILE has been used successfully as a CAD tool for the development of new models for high-speed optoelectronic integrated circuits.
