To download the project files referred to in this video visit: http://www.keysight.com/find/eesof-how-to-verify-s-parameters Accurate and verified S-parameters are mandatory for obtaining reliable device models. After a quick recap of the network analyzer basics, this video presents a step-by-step guideline to master S-parameter measurements, and to get accurate and verified data right the first time. Topics covered: - measurement of the DC bias contact resistance - evaluation of the right RF signal power to not overdrive the transistor - S-parameter calibration and verification - verification of the de-embedding dummy structures - identification of self-heating problems during S-parameter measurements - examples of accurate S-parameter measurements The IC-CAP project can be downloaded together with a detailed pdf explaining the steps demonstrated in the video at http://www.keysight.com/find/eesof-how-to-verify-s-parameters
