Abstract:
The high resistivity substrate of 1000 Ω·cm was employed to improve the high frequency performances of SiGe HBT. After the structure of device was introduced, the principle of how the substrate affects the high frequency performances of the device was analyzed based on the equivalent two-port network model. The characteristics of fT and fmax versus the resistivity of the substrate were analyzed. Tested results indicate that the fT and the fmax of the device based on the high resistivity substrate are 28% and 47.7% larger than that of the one based on the conventional N+ substrate respectively. This shows that the parasitic capacitor network made by the substrate can be reduced greatly when the high resistivity substrate is employed. More ever, the minimum noise figures were deduced and measured. The results show that the minimum noise figure of SiGe HBT based on the high resistivity substrate has almost not been deteriorated at low frequency, but slightly higher at high frequency than that of one based on the n+ substrate.
