  • Abstract
    A technique for determining the parasitic capacitance attributed to device layout geometry is described. This simple technique requires only on-wafer, cascade probe measurements on devices with varying gate widths. This technique will assist in the optimization of device layout design and in improving modeling performance for microwave and millimeter-wave applications
