This paper presents the stepwise SPICE model generation for Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diodes allowing to represent the 2 nd and 3 rd harmonic distortion behavior in circuit based simulations. The model is based on semiconductor physics and generated using measurement data of the device. The generation of this model is based on the I/V characteristics, the behavior of the capacitance versus diode voltage variations, and tuning at one single input power level at the fundamental frequency as well as for the 2 nd and 3 rd harmonics. The simulation tool used for the device modelling is Keysight Avanced Design System (ADS).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
