Abstract
The thermal impedance and junction temperature of HBTs are derived using a new technique where the data points are obtained at the same junction temperature, avoiding linearity issues of β or Vbe . Results show that the thermal impedance varies with both ambient temperature and power dissipation at high junction temperature operating conditions
