Getting Started in IC-CAP

The starting point of this tutorial assumes the following:

    • The system has been set up and switched on according to the instructions under:
     Agilent 8510-based system—Configuring the System Hardware in Appendix B, "Using IC-CAP with an Agilent 85122A Precision Modeling System"
     Agilent 8753-based system—Configuring the System Hardware in Appendix C, "Using IC-CAP with an Agilent 85123A Device Modeling System"
     Wiltron 360-based system—Refer to your Wiltron documentation
    • The calibration standards have been removed from their containers to allow them to reach ambient room temperature.
    • The IC-CAP software has been properly installed on the computer.
    • IC-CAP has been configured to recognize the system hardware, and the SMUs have been renamed as follows, based on the instructions in the appropriate chapter, listed below:
     Performing Hardware Setup in IC-CAP in Appendix B, "Using IC-CAP with an Agilent 85122A Precision Modeling System"
     Performing Hardware Setup in IC-CAP in Appendix C, "Using IC-CAP with an Agilent 85123A Device Modeling System"
Rename SMU1 (for medium power)

Rename SMU2 (for high power)

Then return to this chapter and continue with the procedures here.

/examples/model_files/mesfet/HPEEfet3.mdl

Before you continue with the IC-CAP procedures, make a new directory (using the mkdir command), to store the data and model files that will be generated. Give the directory a name that will associate it with the devices you are going to model. Use the cd command to change to the new directory in UNIX.


Note


The model file HPEEhemt1.mdl is the same model as HPEEfet3.mdl. The only difference is that HPEEfet3.mdl includes premeasured device data from a MESFET, and HPEEhemt1.mdl includes premeasured device data from a HEMT.
