Models
SPICE is the most widely used model for devices. SPICE exists in many levels and various simulation programs can run some or all of the levels. What physical effects the model can account for is a combination of the level used and the extent of the characterization to determine model parameters. In total, the model becomes an algorithm which can calculate voltages and currents at each node in the circuit as a function of time and applied signals. Level 1: This the most basic model. It replicates the gradual channel approximation and takes into account simple channel length modulation and substrate bias effects with a single, constant parameters. The most glaring issue compared to actual, long channel devices is that Vdsat is much less than VGS Vt and sub threshold (VGS < Vt) is not modeled. Capacitance and resistance internal to the device is represented. Level 2 and Level 3: These models take into account the non-linear potential along the channel and some of the vertical and horizontal fields affecting mobility and pinchoff. The sub threshold mode of operation is also covered. Temperature effects on some parameters is also included. The models fall short for a good representation of output conductance (ro). BSIM Models: These are the models used by industry today. The BSIM series employs many parameters (180 for BSIM3) to gain an relatively accurate portrayal of devices. BSIM4 is the model used for 90nm processes, which are at the forefront of analog design. BSIM models continue to have difficulties in accurate representation of the sub threshold region due to high fields and the multiple sources of leakage current. An accurate portray of output conductance which is continuous through the three regions of operation is still a goal.

Level 1 Model
The Level 1 model replicates the long channel derivation of the MOSFET device. Note the quadratic relationship between VGS and ID . The subthreshold region is not modeled as depicted by the log (ID) versus VGS.

BSIM3 Model
The behavior shows a number of deviations from the long channel model. The channel saturates before VGS Vt The relationship between ID and VGS is linear. Subtrhreshold region is modeled.
