Reviews

Advance praise: 'Modeling is at the heart of any modern design process and improvements in transistor modeling have made a significant, but often unrecognized, contribution to the wireless revolution impacting our daily lives. The authors and contributors have collaborated across academic and company boundaries to bring together the latest techniques in a comprehensive and practical review of transistor modeling. This book is destined to become the 'go to' reference on the subject.' Mark Pierpoint, Agilent Technologies 'Without accurate component models, even the most powerful circuit simulator cannot provide meaningful results. The old saying, 'Junk in-Junk out', summarizes the process. The textbook Nonlinear Transistor Model Parameter Extraction Techniques contains a wealth of theoretical and practical information. It should be read by every active RF/Microwave circuit ... as well as device designer.' Les Besser, author of COMPACT and Founder of Besser Associates 'Nonlinear Transistor Model Parameter Extraction Techniques is an excellent book that covers this extremely important topic very well ... the editors have done a thorough job in putting together a complete summary of the important issues in this area. For a range of device technologies, the main themes that need to be addressed including measurement, extraction, DC and non-linear modelling, noise modelling, thermal issues and package modelling are covered in a clear but detailed manner, by experts in each area. I would highly recommend this title.' John Atherton, WIN Semiconductors

Author Information

Matthias Rudolph is the Ulrich-L.-Rohde Professor for RF and Microwave Techniques at Brandenburg University of Technology, Cottbus, Germany. Prior to this, he worked at the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut, Leibniz Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik (FBH), Berlin, where he was responsible for modeling of GaN HEMTs and GaAs HBTs and heading the low-noise components group. Christian Fager is an Associate Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, where he leads a research group focusing on energy efficient transmitters and power amplifiers for future wireless applications. In 2002 he received the Best Student Paper Award at the IEEE International Microwave Symposium for his research on uncertainties in transistor small signal models. David E. Root is Agilent Research Fellow and Measurement and Modeling Sciences Architect at Agilent Technologies, Inc., where he works on nonlinear device and behavioral modeling, large-signal simulation, and nonlinear measurements for new technical capabilities and business opportunities. He is a Fellow of the IEEE and in 2007 he received the 2007 IEEE ARFTG Technology Award.
