Simulating Multi-finger Power Hbts
نویسنده
چکیده
BUILDING A NEW MODEL It is possible to incorporate the temperature and bias dependency of power HBTs in a model by using a thermal network to represent the self-heating and thermal coupling. Such an improved multi-finger HBT model was developed and implemented in a nonlinear circuit simulator, Serenade, from Ansoft Corp. When increasing the collector-emitter voltage of a unit finger HBT, an increase (decrease) in collector current can be observed

Multi-finger power SiGe HBTs for thermal stability enhancement over a wide biasing range
Multi-finger power SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with emitter ballasting resistor and non-uniform finger spacing are fabricated, and temperature profiles of them are measured. Experimental results show that both of them could improve the temperature profile compared with an HBT which has uniform finger spacing. For the HBT with emitter ballasting resistor, the ability to lower ...
متن کاملHigh Power Performance InP/InGaAs Single HBTs
In this study, singleand multiple-finger HBTs were fabricated from epilayers grown in-house by low-pressure metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (LP-MOVPE). Disilane and DEZn were used for Si and Zn sources for nand p-type doping. The gas switching sequences were optimized for optimal layers and layer interfaces. The HBTs were fabricated with a double selfaligned wet-etch process designed for redu...
متن کاملLarge-Signal Microwave Characterization of AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs based on a Physics-Based Electro-Thermal Model
A physics-based multi-cell electro-thermal equivalent circuit model is described which is applied to the large-signal microwave characterization of AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs. This highly efficient model, which incorporates a new multi-finger electro-thermal model, has been used to perform DC, small-signal and load-pull characterization and investigate parameter-spreads due to fabrication process variati...
متن کاملPOWER PERFORMANCE OF PNP InAlAs/InGaAs HBTs
Recently, small-signal microwave performance has been reported for PNP InAlAs/InGaAs HBTs [1, 2]. While power performance of PNP AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs has been demonstrated [3], nothing has been reported on power performance of PNP HBTs in the InP material system. In this work, InAlAs/InGaAs PNP HBTs were fabricated and subsequently characterized under large signal conditions at X-band to determine ...

We demonstrate the results of two-dimensional (2-D) hydrodynamic simulations of one-finger power heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) on GaAs. An overview of the physical models used and comparisons with experimental data are given. We present models for the thermal conductivity and the specific heat applicable to all relevant diamond and zinc-blende structure semiconductors. They are expr...
