spectre simulation question

I think the principle difference is the format of the device model files.

It's simple text editing, just look at the two types side-by-side.

Thank you.

I have tried to change spice file into spectre file, but there are always some syntax errors in the transistor model. I couldn't figure out what is wrong. Here is the model I use in spectre. It seems that only the first 7 lines are correct(until K3B = ...). What is wrong with this model? It works well in spice3.

I don't know spice3. Look on the "Tools" page of my website for how HSpice is converted to PSpice. That might give you some hints.
