They're probably fit by a computer program, so that, even with
non-sub-threshold data, the curvature pretty well lines things up.
Over what current range? I've posted real data over six orders of
magnitude, showing failures over all but the top two decades, but I
have yet to see any real *bench* data validating the putative "work
remarkably well" models. Remember, it's easy to make empty claims.
Moreover, keep in mind I'm not simply a nay-sayer: I've also posted
modified models that do work, plus links to literature for the same.
As for real-world uses for this kind of data and model performance,
try LDO regulators at low currents, if you aren't willing to accept
audio amplifiers at crossover. OK, sure, that's not important.
What's important is that the poor folks in Houston can't get out.
