Abstract

The invention belongs to the integrated circuit design technical field which relates to an integrated circuit design which applies a ferroelectric condenser, in particular to a ferroelectric condenser behavioral model which is applied in an SPICE circuit simulation program. The model utilizes the expression function in the SPICE program to establish a master copy of a non-linear condenser, and the master copy of the non-linear condenser is matched with a differential circuit to be a control circuit and simulates physical behaviors of the ferroelectric condenser. The model comprises a linear condenser, the non-linear condenser, a voltage control voltage source and the differential circuit, wherein, a parallel circuit which consists of the linear condenser and the non-linear condenser is connected in series with the voltage control voltage source and the differential circuit in turn. Compared with the prior art, electric behaviors of the ferroelectric condenser in the model are completely represented by the non-linear condenser and can be precisely evaluated by utilization of an expression. The operation control of the model is completely completed by the differential circuit and the control process is simple, thereby being favorable for improving the simulation speed. Moreover, control signals are differential of input voltage to time, thereby the model is more suitable for simulation of transient states.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of integrated circuit design and relates to the design of integrated circuits using ferroelectric capacitors, in particular to a behavior model of ferroelectric capacitors used in SPICE circuit simulation programs. Background technique [0002] A ferroelectric capacitor is a capacitive element made of ferroelectric materials, and it plays an increasingly important role in today's integrated circuit design, especially memory circuit design. For a standardized and accurate circuit design, circuit simulation based on EDA (Electronic Design Aid) software is essential. However, as a new type of component, ferroelectric capacitors have not yet obtained independent simulation models in various EDA software, which brings great difficulties to integrated circuit design. Therefore, the design of ferroelectric capacitor model suitable for EDA software is still a very challenging task. Ferroelectric capacitance models...
