Abstract
We have proposed an improved and stable algorithm for linearity (VIP3) extraction by setting an optimized measurement node interval. This algorithm, considering the accuracy of measurement appliances, provides less noisy VIP3 without loss of details. Adopting it, VIP3 can be derived satisfying 1% error criterion. Accurate VIP3 extraction can be a strong help in CMOS performance analysis for the RF applications. Measurements were carried out on a nMOSFET.
