Hi Jose,
You see this is because in s2ibis2, the default VT table length is
hard-coded to 50. This is set in the s2idflt.h in the /src folder and
was done so the table does not become too large and show redundant data
(as you can see).

If you want to change the size of the table, you need to open the
abovementioned file, change the 'WAVE_POINTS_DEFAULT' parameter to 101
and then recompile the source files.
Hope this helps.

Hello,

Does anyone know why in the .ibs file generated by s2ibis2 the V/T
curves
only report 50 points, whereas in the spice output files there are 100
points?

Here is a sample of the spice output and the .ibs output:
