- Abstract
- The new communication markets are very demanding: high frequency, high degree of integration, low power consumption. Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) offers many advantages and this paper illustrates the potentialities of this technology for RF and microwave applications. After an overview of the SOI material, the properties of the SOI MOSFETs are analyzed and compared to bulk Si MOSFETs. The models of transmission lines and inductors on SOI are compared and further used in the on-wafer characterization of the transistors. Various models to for the transistors are presented and their limitations are given. A new model is described, valid from DC to the microwave region. This model agrees very well with the measurements for various transistor dimensions. Finally, various RF and microwave circuits are presented.
