Abstract :
Recent advances in the understanding of bipolar device physics permit the derivation of a number of quantitative relationships which are useful for improving existing designs and also for assessing the feasibility of proposed devices. This paper describes three important tradeoffs which apply to the design and performance of high-voltage transistors in inverter circuits.
