## Abstract An improved padβdeembedding technique for InGaP/GaAs HBT reducing uncertainty in measurement and equivalent circuit is proposed. Intrinsic elements are obtained by iteratively determining the external and internal base resistance. The extracted equivalent circuits demonstrate good agree

β¦ Synopsis
It is well known that the behaviour of integrated circuits is strongly affected by thermal feedback. A general method for evaluating, by linear analysis, the complete circuit performance is described that considers these effects. The procedure can easily be implemented using only well known computer programs for the circuit analysis. Simple models for a number of devices (diodes, transistors and f.e.t.s) used in integrated circuits are given. Examples, using the circuit-analysis program ECAP, are shown.

This paper presents a method for analyzing the stability of small-signal microwave amplifiers with any topology. This analysis is performed using the Nyquist criterion and allows detection of the so-called odd-mode instabilities. The method is easily applicable by using commercially available microw
