Experimental verification of pattern selection for noise characterization

摘要

A comparison is made between different pattern-selection procedures for noise characterization based on measurements of cold-FETs in a common-source configuration. The measurements were performed using an automated noise setup with one electro-mechanical tuner. The results confirm that a recently developed two-step pattern allows more accurate noise-parameter determination compared to existing practice. The significance of this paper lies in the confirmation of the simulation results presented earlier.
