Scaled GaN-HEMT Large-Signal Model Based on EM Simulation

This paper presents a scaled GaN-HEMT large-signal model based on EM simulation. A large-signal model of the 10-finger GaN-HEMT consists of a large-signal model of the two-finger GaN-HEMT and an equivalent circuit of the interconnection circuit. The equivalent circuit of the interconnection circuit was extracted according to the EM simulation results. The large-signal model for the two-finger device is based on the conventional Angelov channel current model. The large-signal model for the 10-finger device was verified through load-pull measurement. The 10-finger GaN-HEMT produced an output power of about 20 W for both simulation and load-pullmeasurements.
