Abstract
Popcorn (burst) noise continues to deteriorate the operation of linear IC devices. Reduction of popcorn noise by a few simple modifications in the manufacturing process is reported in this paper. Annealing in an HC1 atmosphere to getter metal impurities and slow pulling after emitter deposition to diminish stress-induced junction defects appear to reduce the popcorn noise significantly.
