To those with more electronics experience than me, does the following exist?
I take a set of measurements, say using a curve tracer, or whatever else I can use to measure whatever curves I require of a device (say it's a BJT).
I feed the data into a program and it spits out a representative Spice model.
I am absolutely sure this is possible, at least technically.
I am also aware that a model is just that, a model, and it's still an approximation to a physical transistor.
However, logic tells me it should be a BETTER approximation than some random model of that part off of the internet, however.
I've spent a little bit of time doing some research on how easy this might be, but are there any existing tools to do this that you have used? Either hardware or software? That can produce spice model parameters directly?
Or if not, are there any mathematicians/computer scientists in the building who could point me to a paper I could implement for myself?
cheers.
