Malcolm, How are you setting up the bias to put the inverter in the "linear" region?

Hi,
I'm still not happy with my spice models. I ask this before and was given this:
I've tried this on ac analysis, that from the output 1F/1G filter, gain of 1 buffer, 1VAC source. The ac source scans the frequency response and the rest set the dc level. At 5V the above circuit has next to no gain. At 15V the gain is 350 up to 10kHz then rolls off. At 5V supply the gain is rolling off at 10Hz. The model is just not accurate.
Jim has sent me his HCU04 model but I'm actually using a 4069 since in practice I can't see an circuit differences except the 4069 takes less current. That has a flat gain of 12 which also isn't right. There is still quite some gain at 100kHz.
Anyone have a better model or can tell me what of the multitude of params I should vary to get the model right?
TIA

The output of the inverter feeds a 1g/1F RC i.e. the RC only pass dc. E source buffers this. Next is series 1VAC source which feeds back to the input. Hence input is 1VAC on top of dc from output. Bias then finds its own level. Analysis is ac of course, so small signal.
BTW input (and output) bias points on 5V supply is 2.1V for 4069UB model, 2.383V for your HCU04 model. For 4069UB on 15V rail bias settles to 7.040V.

Hmm.. the CD-4069UB is a buffered CMOS device. Instead of a single inverting pair of fets, there are three pairs in cascade for each inverter. Also, the geometry of the fets vary greatly by manufacturer and by production run. Using them in an analog circuit for a long run product is inviting constant trips to the production line to fix the design every time the parts ordering clerk gets a better price from a different maker. Even specing only a certain maker doesn't always work, since he may improve his process to increase profits and change the fet performance.

Hello Malcolm,
The threshhold votages of both transistors are too high. The drain currents are in the pA range. I am sure the used VTO in the models are fallen from the sky but not from real measurements. :)
Best regards, Helmut

Malcolm, Check it with my LoopGain tool. I get 33dB of loop gain out to about 10MHz.

Not according to the datasheet.
