  • Abstract
    Analytical expressions of the transient thermal response of self-heating devices have been derived based on a feedback amplifier circuit model yielding accurate methods to extract the thermal time constant in both the time and frequency domains. The transient thermal responses of GaInP/GaAs HBT were measured and explained using the expressions derived.
