Abstract :
A new method for de-embedding GaAs FET or HEMT chip data from measurements made on packaged devices has been described. The method is based on physically meaningful constraints applied to chip devices, and has been verified for a commonly-used GaAs FET. The method enables better understanding of the application of packaged devices in hybrid microwave integrated circuits
