Abstract :
The avalanche regions of ´lo-hi-lo´ and ´hi-la´ IMPATTs are significantly different even though their drift regions may be similar. It is likely that this will cause differences in the large signal behaviour of the two structures. This possibility is investigated using computer simulation.
