Abstract :
In this paper the empirical and the look-up table approaches are combined to accurately model a gallium nitride based HEMT on silicon carbide. That solution allows to exploit the advantages of both approaches. The validity of the extracted model is verified by comparing model simulations with DC and microwave measurements.
