    Abstract : Transistor models are very important in the design of Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs). Circuit simulations based on accurate transistor models are one of the keys to high circuit yield. Transistor models can also be used to trace problems in the device fabrication processes. READ MORE
