CD4007 Specs: Vtn, kn, Channel Length Modulation

  • Thread starter Thread starter KeithLucas
  • Start date Start date
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding the threshold voltage (Vtn), transconductance parameter (kn), and channel length modulation parameter for MOSFET 6 in the CD4007. Participants suggest starting with the datasheet, though it may not contain the specific values since they can be foundry and process dependent. A SPICE model is recommended as a viable alternative to extract the necessary data. A lab example and specific SPICE model parameters for NMOS and PMOS transistors are provided to assist in obtaining the required values. The conversation concludes with the original poster indicating they will run a SPICE model for further analysis.

I'm looking for the threshold voltage Vtn, the MOSFET transconductance parameter kn and the channel length modulation parameter for MOSFET 6 on the CD4007. Where can I look these values up?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
did you try the datasheet ?
would be the obvious starting place :wink:

cheers

Did YOU try the data sheet? Not such an obvious place for what was being asked.

Moving on:

OP, Which FET do you consider to be #6?

The answer would be foundry and process dependent and I doubt it is available on any data sheet. Maybe you can look for a spice model and either read the model (if it is readable), or use spice to extract the data.

Here is a lab example

EDIT

Here is the spice model

Thanks, I'll run a SPICE model to get it!
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
