Abstract :
This paper presents a new AC equivalent circuit model for 18-40GHz tunneling diode detector. The mm-wave diode equivalent circuit consists of normal diode components, as well as parasitic parameters, e.g., resonance capacitor, resistor and inductor, to accurately model high-frequency I-V behaviors. Experiment confirms that the new model works well across the 18-40GHz spectrum and enables accurate matching design for tunneling diode detector circuits with reduced reflection down to -12dB.
