Device parameters degradation of nonlinear elements subject to drain and gate voltage stress is examined experimentally. Analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor linearity degradation due to stress is given. Effects on radio frequency (RF) circuit linearity are investigated systematically through a SpectreRF simulation based on measured device data.
