摘要
Often, the test-fixture forward coupling is ignored during on-wafer device measurements, although existing de-embedding techniques provide means for addressing its effect, In this letter it is demonstrated that large errors may occur if forward coupling is not determined and accounted for. An investigation based on basic scaling properties of MOSFET's is proposed as a benchmark test to partially verify de-embedding methods.
