Spice Model Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Cell Name: :cell:`capbn_b`
- Model Name: :model:`sky130_fd_pr__cap_var_lvt`, :model:`sky130_fd_pr__cap_var_hvt`
- Model Type: subcircuit
Operating Voltages where SPICE models are valid
- :math:`|V_0 V_1| = 0` to 2.0V
Details
~~~~~~~
The following devices are available; they are subcircuits with the N-well to P-substrate diodes built into the model:
- :model:`sky130_fd_pr__cap_var_lvt` - low VT PMOS device option
- :model:`sky130_fd_pr__cap_var_hvt` - high VT PMOS device option
The varactors are used as tunable capacitors, major e-test parameters are listed below. Further details on the device models and their usage are in the SKY130 process Family Spice Models (002-21997), which can be obtained from SkyWater upon request.

There is no equivalent varactor for 5V operation. The NHV or PHV devices should be connected as capacitors for use at 5V.
The symbols for the varactors are shown below:
