Abstract :
In this paper the widely used analytical model equations of Hawkins (1977), van der Ziel and Bosman (1984), Herzel and Heineman (1995), and of Voinigescu et al. (1997), for minimum noise figure of bipolar transistors are compared. It is shown that the latter two do not agree with the older expressions, even in the limit of low frequencies. The reasons and consequences of the found discrepancies are discussed
