Correlated noise in bipolar transistors: Model implementation issues
A new orthogonalization scheme is suggested for implementing correlated noise of bipolar transistors. The scheme provides a necessary condition on the non-quasi-static (NQS) models that can be used to obtain an implementation-suitable correlated noise model. One of the solutions presented here corresponds to a single node realization not reported so far. The g(m)-factor is introduced in the noise analysis explaining the deviations of a former noise model from device simulations. The model is extended to include the collector space-charge-region induced noise by retaining the simplicity of the realization and preserving the model parameter count. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
