  • Abstract
    A gate probe method has been developed to accurately determine source, drain, and channel resistances of MESFET´s. The method employs the gate current crowding phenomenon at higher drain currents. An exact equation was derived for the resistances whose fit to the data provides a self-consistent check of the determined parameters.
