Abstract
A semiempirical model for the incremental drain conductance g d of the long-channel MOSFET in saturation which is useful for hand analysis of MOS amplifiers is presented. The model´s accuracy is higher than that of current commercial simulators and comparable to the parameter spread observed in current VLSI processes. Important modeling errors in the standard SPICE model for g d are pointed out
