Compact physics models succinctly describe the essential physics of a device. Compact circuit models are used by designers – to design circuits and to communicate with manufacturing. The core of a compact circuit model should be a compact physics model. Compact circuit models must satisfy the needs of designers as well as the mathematical constraints of the circuit simulator.
