引入寄生耦合效应的InP HEMT高频等效噪声电路建模

High-frequency equivalent noise circuit modeling of InP HEMT with parasitic coupling effects

  • 摘要: 针对传统模型因缺少对电磁相互作用的表征而导致高频精度不足的问题,以具有优异高频特性的磷化铟高电子迁移率场效应晶体管(indium phosphide high electron mobility field-effect transistor, InP HEMT)为例,提出了一种引入寄生耦合效应的小信号等效电路模型与高频等效噪声电路模型. 首先引入栅极–漏极之间的互感元件来模拟器件在高频下由于电磁相互作用产生的寄生耦合效应,并采用了电磁仿真与直接参数提取相结合的建模方法,建立小信号等效电路模型. 然后以所建小信号模型为基础,通过相关噪声矩阵与噪声参数的提取方法,建立高频等效噪声电路模型. 实验结果表明:在500 MHz~50 GHz频段内,S参数最大误差小于3%,四噪声参数相较于传统模型提升约2.45%,并从小信号电流增益(|h21|)、单边功率增益(U)与最小噪声系数(Fmin)出发,评估了寄生耦合效应对高频性能的影响.

     

    Abstract: In order to solve the problem of insufficient high-frequency accuracy due to the lack of characterization of electromagnetic interaction in the traditional model, a small-signal equivalent circuit model and high-frequency equivalent noise circuit model with parasitic coupling effect is proposed by taking the Indium phosphide high electron mobility field-effect transistor (InP HEMT) with excellent high-frequency characteristics as an example. Firstly, the mutual inductance element between gate and drain is introduced to simulate the parasitic coupling effect caused by electromagnetic interaction at high frequency, and the modeling method combining electromagnetic simulation and direct parameter extraction is used to establish a small signal equivalent circuit model. Then, based on the small signal model, the high-frequency equivalent noise circuit model is established through the extraction method of correlation noise matrix and noise parameters. The experimental results show that in the frequency band of 500 MHz−50 GHz, the maximum error of the S parameter is less than 3%, and the four-noise parameter is increased by about 2.45% compared with the traditional model, and the influence of the parasitic coupling effect on the high-frequency performance is evaluated from the small signal current gain (|h21|), unilateral power gain (U) and minimum noise figure (Fmin).
