SPICE GP (Gummel-Poon)
For the SPICE Gummel Poon (GP) model as well as for the S-parameters
(including noise parameters) please refer to our internet website
www.infineon.com/rf.models.
Please consult our website and download the latest versions before actually
starting your design. You find the BFR380F SPICE GP model in the internet
in MWO- and ADS-format, which you can import in to these circuit simulation tools
very quickly and conveniently. The model already contains the package parasitics
and is ready to use for DC and high frequency simulations. The terminals of the
model circuit correspond to the pin configuration of the device. The model
parameters have been extracted and verified up to 10 GHz using typical devices.
The BFR380F SPICE GP model reflects the typical DC- and RF-performance
within the limitations which are given by the SPICE GP model itself. Besides the DC
characteristics all S-parameters in magnitude and phase, as well as noise figure
(including optimum source impedance, equivalent noise resistance and flicker noise)
and intermodulation have been extracted.
