  • Abstract
    A systematic scaling approach for the modeling of high-power/large-size HBTs is presented. The measured S-parameters of a three elementary-cell HBT are compared to those obtained with the scaled model and the commonly used lumped equivalent circuit model. It is shown that a better fit to the measured S parameters is obtained when the scaled model is used. The interconnections and parasitics between elementary cells are accounted for based on the actual footprint of the device.<>
