Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this work is to develop a large signal lumped circuit model of the GaAs MESFET to aid in the designs of microwave MESFET circuits. The circuit elements of this model are obtained either directly or indirectly from the DC and RF measurements of the device to be modeled. To analyze this circuit model, a nonlinear circuit simulation computer program is written. This routine is base on a hybrid time-frequency domain iterative algorithm called 'multiple reflection technique'. To improve the speed of analysis, an accelerate convergence scheme is incorporated into the multiple reflection technique for the first time to analyze three terminal device. The validity of the analysis algorithm is first checked by comparing the simulation results of a MESFET with published data. The large signal model developed is then confirmed by comparing the simulation results of a MESFET modeled in this work to the experimental results. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear models of microwave transistors are essential for the design of high-frequency nonlinear circuits, such as power amplifiers or mixers. Among the existing modeling techniques, measurement-based approaches have gained huge attention from researchers in the last decades. Especially, nonlinear measurements-driven model extraction is preferred for transistors exploited in the design of power amplifiers and mixers. This chapter mainly deals with the generation of empirical transistor models starting from large-signal time-domain waveforms. Specifically, a widely used model available in commercial CAD tools is adopted, and the extraction procedure of the model parameters is outlined in detail. Moreover the advantage of using time-domain waveforms at different frequencies is highlighted. More specifically, by making use of time-domain waveforms at frequencies in the kHz-MHz range, one can separately model the behavior of the transistor output current generator, which is more prone to low-frequency dispersive effects. In fact at low frequencies the effect of the nonlinear transistor capacitance is significantly reduced and, therefore, already “de-embedded” from the measured time-domain waveforms. Once the model of the output current generator is available, one can use high-frequency measurements to determine the nonlinear capacitances (or charges). Several modeling examples of different transistor technologies, such as gallium-arsenide and gallium-nitride, are reported.

Download or read book Nonlinear Design FETs and HEMTs written by Peter H. Ladbrooke and published by Artech House. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its continuing popularity, the so-called standard circuit model of compound semiconductor field-effect transistors (FETs) and high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) is shown to have a limitation for nonlinear analysis and design: it is valid only in the static limit. When the voltages and currents are time-varying, as they must be for these devices to have any practical use, the model progressively fails for higher specification circuits. This book shows how to reform the standard model to render it fully compliant with the way FETs and HEMTs actually function, thus rendering it valid dynamically. Proof-of-principle is demonstrated for several practical circuits, including a frequency doubler and amplifiers with demanding performance criteria. Methods for extracting both the reformulated model and the standard model are described, including a scheme for re-constructing from S-parameters the bias-dependent dynamic (or RF) I(V) characteristics along which devices work in real-world applications, and as needed for the design of nonlinear circuits using harmonic-balance and time-domain simulators. The book includes a historical review of how variations on the standard model theme evolved, leading up to one of the most widely used—the Angelov (or Chalmers) model.
