Here, I'm simulating through 1 millisecond with a 1 microsecond time-step. Here, I've chosen the 2N7000 manufactured by NXP Semiconductor.Īdd a spice directive to load the 2N7000 part.Ĭreate a transient simulation. Choose one of the 2N7000 parts (in parts/transistor/mosfet/nchannel) and drag it into the same folder. At this point your circuit should look like this: Make the voltage source 5V and make the resistor 1k. Start by creating the following test circuit.Īfter you place the nmos part, Control-right-click on it to bring up the part attribute editor.Ĭhange the 'Prefix' to 'X' and the 'Value' to '2N7000'.
To simulate a 2N7000 in LTSpice, we will place an 'nmos' part and then modify its attributes to use one of our 2N7000.lib files.
A student's very first MOSFET tutorial should probably use this part.
It should be your first choice when you have no special requirements. This is your basic N-channel, low power, through-hole MOSFET.
