  • Abstract
    Investigation of 4-transistor arrays in which the devices are very well matched at emitter currents above 100 nA has revealed correlation between burst noise and the departure from `matchness¿ at lower currents. A figure of merit based on the leakage currents ICBO,ICEO is introduced to compare individual devices and arrays.
