Resumen o descripción
Using a new test fixture that allows us to bias the bulk terminal through an additional compensated DC probe, atwo-port S-measurement-based methodology to characterize RF-MOSFETs in common-source configuration is herein presented. In addition to obtaining S-parameters at different bulk-to-source voltages using a single two-port configured test-fixture, the proposal allows the analysis of the electrical parameters of a MOSFET that are influenced by the substrate effect when the frequency rises. Physically expected results are obtained for device’s model parameters, allowing to accurately reproduce S-parameters up to 20 GHz. Furthermore, extracted parameters, such as threshold voltage, are in agreement with those obtained using well-established DC methods. This method allows one to characterize a four-terminal MOSFET from two-port small-signal measurements.
