  • Abstract
    A NonLinear (NL) model of HBT obtained from I(V) and S-parameters pulsed measurements is presented. Besides thermal effects, this model includes also two transcapacitances to take into account the Non-Quasi-Static (NQS) effects. It is shown that contrary to a Quasi-Static (QS) one, this model allows to predict accurately the behavior of the device in the whole power range as well as a broad frequency band.
