Abstract
This paper presents an enhanced PIN diode model for the voltage-controlled PIN diode attenuator. The proposed model operates well when it is used in the voltage-controlled mode as well as current-controlled mode, and it is a simple and straightforward model, since the PN junction diode of this model has the same I-V curve as that of the PIN diode. The validity of the proposed model is demonstrated by the measured data.
