A scalable electrothermal model for transient self-heating effects in trench-isolated SiGe HBTs

Résumé

This paper demonstrates a scalable electrothermal model for transient self-heating effects in trench-isolated SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs). The scalability of the thermal model has been investigated by considering pyramidal heat diffusion approximation between the heat source and the thermal ground. Three-dimensional thermal TCAD simulations have been carried out to obtain transient variations of the junction temperature and to extract the thermal impedance in the frequency domain. A recursive thermal network with scalable model parameters has been developed and added at the temperature node of the HBT compact model HiCuM. This network has been verified through numerical simulations and by low-frequency s-parameter measurements and found to be in excellent agreement for various device geometries.
