Abstract :
The small-signal equivalent circuit of AlGaN/GaN HEMT is discussed It is shown that an extremely high gate voltage has to be applied to correctly determine series resistances. Effects appearing at high forward gate voltages are discussed. Good agreement between measured and simulated data has been achieved
