Abstract

In this paper, BSIM4's IIR(Intrinsic Input Resistance) model that has a difficulty to predict $Z_{11}$ exactly is investigated by analyzing S-parameter measurement. Then a BSIM4 macro model for 70nm RF MOSFETs is proposed. That model uses external effective gate resistance which is composed of R and parallel RC. Comparison between simulation results using proposed model and IIR model is shown. The proposed model shows a better agreement between measured and simulated results up to 20GHz.
