This document presents the definition of the CMC world stardard model Mextram, for vertical bipolar transistors. The goal of this document is to present the full definition of the model, including the parameter set, the equivalent circuit and all the equations for currents, charges and noise sources. Apart from the definition also an introduction into the physical background is given. We have given also a very basic parameter extraction procedure. Both the background and the parameter extraction are documented separately in dedicated documents. The transition from Mextram 503 to Mextram 504 is described, to enable the translation of a 503 parameter-set to a 504 parameterset. At last we have given some numerical examples that can act as a test of implementation. Delft University of Technology iii June 16, 2009 Mextram version 504.8 Mextram definition document Preface October 2004 The Mextram bipolar transistor model has been put in the public domain in Januari 1994. At that time level 503, version 1 of Mextram was used within Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. In June 1995 version 503.2 was released which contained some improvements. Mextram level 504 contains a complete review of the Mextram model. The preliminary version has been completed in June 2000. This report documents version 504.5. October 2004, J.P. March 2005 In the fall of 2004, Mextram was elected as a world standard transistor model by the Compact Model Council (CMC), a consortium of representatives from over 20 major semiconductor manufacturers. This report documents version 504.6. March 2005, RvdT. Spring 2008 In 2007, the notion of flexible topology was introduced by the community of compact model developers and model implementation specialists. In the spring 2008 release of Mextram, this was used to extend the topology of Mextram and add the distribution of the collector resistance in a backwards compatible manner. This report documents version 504.7. Spring 2008, RvdT. Q4 2008, Q1 2009 This document presents version 504.8, which adds a model for Zener tunneling currents in the Emitter base junction. Spring 2008, RvdT.
