Abstract :
This paper presents a methodology which predicts quite easily neutron irradiated SPICE model parameters for BJT´s. This methodolgy is based on both the well-known neutron irradiation theory and the SPICE model. It has been demonstrated that the impact of neutron irradiation can be described through a modification of the unirradiated SPICE parameters without changing the intrinsic SPICE model
