We present an analytic method to extract Schottky diode parasitic model parameters. All the ten unknown model parameters are extracted via a straightforward step-by-step procedure. The challenges for a proper finger inductance and series resistance extraction are discussed and solutions are recommended. The proposed method is evaluated using three sets of -parameter data for GaAs-based planar Schottky diodes, i.e., data from measurement up to 110 GHz and 3-D electromagnetic full-wave simulations up to 600 GHz. The extracted models agree well with the measured and simulated data.
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.
