Abstract :
An overview of recent developments in device modelling work performed at the University of Stellenbosch and the Catholic University of Leuven is presented. Results describing an accurate and robust multi-bias model extraction algorithm are presented. An introduction is also provided to the nonlinear network measurement system (NNMS) and results are presented to illustrate the implications for nonlinear modelling and design
