| Sumario: | This paper presents a simple but accurate normalized nonlinear large-signal semiempirical MOS transistor model to be used in monolithic RF Class A-to-C PAs. MOS transistor characteristics, saved in lookup tables, are extracted for different PVT corners, allowing the study of the PA performance spread. Model accuracy is ratified by the excellent matching obtained when comparing data algebraically calculated with electrical simulations of hundreds of PAs, and with the measurement data of a fabricated 2.4 GHz PA. |
