  • Abstract
    In this paper, the frequency response limited by avalanche buildup time was calculated using a realistic model which reflects a zinc diffusion profile and includes a nonlocal multiplication theory. The dependency of a chip capacitance on the floating guard rings was also investigated. The trade-off relation between the edge gain suppression and the chip capacitance is addressed.
