SPICE modeling of a BJT from Datasheet

Let’s check on Fixed to set the data.We have already estimated TF = 530ps. Then we can enter this value and fix it. Remain to be determined XTF, VTF, ITF.

If we input data couples of values from the graphic:

We can see that the extraction of parameters leads to unreliable values because the graphic obtained is very far from the datasheet one:

mismgain

Set XTF, VTF, ITF to their default values (10, 10, 1), we’ll see that the curve starts to match datasheet curve:

betgain

With a few attempts, we can have a good correspondence with the curve of the gain with the following values:TF=670ps, XTF= 150, VTF = 10, ITF1 = 1:

finally, the model BC548A has the following expression:

.model BC548A NPN( Is=8.172f Xti=3 Eg=1.11 Vaf=139.172 Bf=212.95 +Ise=62.50f

+ Vtf=10)
