摘要：
A novel time domain large signal characterization of microwave transistors ir described An harmonic load-pull system, based on the use of three separated active loops, allows synthesizing the load impedances of the device under test at he first three harmonic frequencies The visualization and he accurate measurement of high frequency current/voltage at low, medium and large RF power levels, is performed by coupling these harmonic load-pull facilities with a "nonlinear network measurement system". GaAs FETs and GaInP/GaAs HBTs have been characterized and optimized under single tone and multitone large signal excitations: A comparison between measured and simulated current/voltage waveforms is also presented Such results prove the great capabilities offered by this new time domain characterization approach to aid in designing optimized power amplifiers and in validating nonlinear models for CAD.
