Mixed-Mode Modeling and Parameter Extraction of Advanced InGaAs HBTs in RFIC Systems

Abstract

Mixed-mode modeling is originally demonstrated for parameter extraction of advanced InGaAs HBTs in RFIC systems. This efficient approach combines the genetic algorithm (GA) with succinct analytical formulae to determine physically meaningful circuit elements used in the SPICE-like simulator. Evaluation of simulated and analytically-derived values validates the accuracy of this methodology
