Abstract:

Accurate low-frequency noise modeling is a prerequisite for oscillator phase-noise simulation. In this paper, the LF noise sources of GaInP/GaAs HBTs are investigated. It turns out that the 1/f-noise model must contain two sources, the base-emitter diode and the emitter resistance. Quantitatively, excess noise power at 100 kHz scales with the square of collector current-density.
