Abstract :
A unified bipolar transistor model, which takes into account the variation of the base and collector resistances with emitter-base voltage, collector-base voltage and collector current, as well as the voltage dependence of the base charge and the avalanche breakdown, is presented. The agreement between computer simulations and experiments is shown to be very good.
