  • Abstract
    Low-frequency dispersive effects in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs are here modeled above their cutoff frequencies by adopting a modeling approach developed for GaAs PHEMTs. To this aim, a new identification procedure is proposed, which allows to obtain very accurate predictions of the pulsed drain currents, even in the presence of strong kink effects in the DC characteristics. In addition, a dedicated algorithm of data extrapolation is used, in order to make the model more computationally efficient.
