  • Abstract
    Based on delayed minority charge high frequency correlated noise in silicon germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor is modeled. Following system theory, the formulated model equations are accurately implemented in Verilog-A using four extra nodes. Results show excellent agreement with numerically simulated data. Simplified model versions are also implemented and tested. Relation between high-frequency correlated noise and non-quasi-static effect is identified through delayed minority charge.
