Abstract
For process monitoring and device modeling, a new method to determine the different components of the base resistance of bipolar transistors has been developed. Dual base test structures have been improved to extract the sheet resistance value of each of these components using dc measurements. This method is applied to a state-of-art double poly ST BiCMOS technology, and results are discussed.
