  • Abstract
    This paper focuses on the package model extraction methodology and large signal model verification of high power RF LDMOS amplifiers. Results validating the extracted package models are presented. Accurate models of the power amplifier that also allow for simulations of the linearity aspects, such as IMD3 and IMD5 is presented. Comparisons between measured and modeled data is presented to validate the package models.
