Abstract :
Zero bias Schottky diodes often used as microwave power detectors. The detection law is a function of frequency, temperature, power, DC bias and diode parameters such as n (ideality factor) and Is (saturation current). In order to get wider dynamic range, better thermal stability and more accurate square law response over the dynamic range we analyzed these characteristics of the Schottky diodes in MATLAB. Detailed characteristics analysis, related curves and solve methods have been shown in this paper.
