## Kn value of a specific transistor given spec sheet

Hi,
Working on a project, I am told to find the K,n value of a specific transistor (2n7000), given the spec. sheet. I know K,n can be found from the formula:

I,d = K,n * (V,gs - V,tn)^2

I'm close, from the spec sheet, I can use a V,gs value and a corresponding I,d value, however not sure what value to use for V,tn to complete the equation and solve for K,n. Any help?

 That's a thermal voltage that depends on temperature. It's approximately 26 mV at room temperature.
 That is V,t which is 26mV like you said but what I am looking for is K,n which is in units if mA/V I believe

## Kn value of a specific transistor given spec sheet

Look up a spice model for the transistor. It should be there. And the units should be A/V^2
 Thanks, tried this - I placed the 2n7000 in the circuit and clicked "Edit Properties" on it but I can't find ANYTHING in the property editor Any help is appreciated

 Thanks. I have no idea what LTspice is, but doesn't look like it's installed on my school's computers. Part of the assignment is to enter these characteristics (K,n V,t W, L etc ) into one of the regular Mosfet Ntype transistor models so it acts as a 2n7000, rather than using the 2n7000 model itself... Waht, is there any chance you could tell me how I would do that? I dont see how to do it at all. Thanks EDIT: Seems like I need to use the PSpice model editor, and type in the values of the 2n7000. I'll try and figure the rest out. Thanks a lot
