Abstract :
This paper discusses the DC and AC characteristics of InGaP/GaAs HBTs with different base width from 1.2 μm to 2.0 μm. There is no significant difference on dc current gain, common-emitter IV characteristics and fT-performance due to the identical emitter layout. However, HBT with 1.2 μm base width demonstrated lowest fMAX. This is due to the limits on base current flowing in the 1.2 μm base width, where fMAX is dominated by RB instead of CBC.
