Note: Please do not use the datasheet SPICE models in your own simulations. For example, for the 2N3904, while the datasheet says that beta can be between 100 and 300, the SPICE model assumes that it is greater than 400. This value is overly optimistic.

We want our simulations to match our hand calculations and our lab measurements. SPICE is only as good as the model we give it. If the list of hybrid-pi parameters (under the "bipolar junction transistors subckt'' heading) from SPICE doesn't match our calculations exactly (within a few percent), then something is wrong with our model. It is well worth our time to make a few measurements in lab (using the curve tracer to find current gain and output resistance, and the impedance meter to find parasitic capacitances) and a few hand calculations (using the datasheet values for f_T and V_BE to find tau_F and I_S) to create our own model.
