  • Abstract
    To describe the RF performance of double polysilicon bipolar transistors, the model MEXTRAM is used for detailed modeling of the high current effects. Parameters of MEXTRAM are extracted from only small signal and DC measurements to predict the large signal behaviour. To obtain good correspondence with RF power measurements the measurement system also needed to be modeled
