Abstract

Taking LDMOS RF power amplifier as example,electro-thermal model of LDMOS FET was introduced.The quantificational relation of chip temperature and instantaneous dissipative power of LDMOS FET in theory was derived.The cause of the electro-thermal effect of the amplifier was revealed.The results of the simulations and experiments demonstrated the influences of electrothermal memory effect on the(RFPA's) performances,based on this general methods for reducing the memory effect are proposed.
