MESFET simulation oriented toward computer-aided microwave circuit design

A MESFET simulator designed to link physically based transistor simulation to microwave circuit simulation within an integrated CAD environment is described. The key features of the simulator are efficient implementation of a large-signal time-domain device simulation kernel; incorporation of extensive postprocessing of raw time-domain data; and an interactive, graphics-oriented user interface. An example that demonstrates the utility of the approach for assessing circuit models is presented.<
