Abstract :
An improved GaAs-MESFET, curve-fitting model has been developed and implemented into the source code of SPICE 2G.6. The advantages of our model compared to the well known Curtice model are shown. We describe our sequential procedure to find the fit functions and to extract the model parameters. The model presented here is suitable for simulation of high speed analog and digital GaAs integrated circuits.
