摘要
It is shown that device self-heating effects introduce a significant error in the determination of emitter resistance in AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs by the common technique of extrapolating 1/g(m) against 1/I-c (where g(m) is the observed device transconductance). An approximate expression for the error is given, and an improved technique for R(e) extraction is presented.
