Abstract :
Two strategies for extraction of p-n junction´s depletion capacitance compact model parameters are identified and compared by the present paper. Applying these in a numerical experiment and device measurements, it is demonstrated that the reproducibility of the estimated parameter values can strongly depend on the extraction strategy applied within the nonlinear regression procedure. An approach to assess statistical properties of parameter extraction strategies is presented and the merits of such assessments are shown.
