Abstract
A distributed CAD-oriented model for micro- and millimetre-wave FETs is presented along with a new scaling approach where number and width of the gate fingers are taken into account. Model identification is carried out through electromagnetic simulation of the device layout and conventional S-parameter measurements, without need of cumbersome optimisations. Experimental results confirm the validity of the proposed approach.
