Popis: Nonlinear characteristics of semiconductor devices play a key role in the performances of circuits, however, their modelling is still a big challenge in circuit simulations nowadays, especially in a large signal condition, where physical processes dominate the device operation, the equivalent circuit model-based simulation may lose accuracy. A detector circuit of HSMS-282 Schottky diode is taken as a sample, according to circuit simulation method based on semiconductor physics and thermodynamic equations. Its large-signal nonlinear characteristic and temperature effect are simulated and analyzed. Moreover, useful physical mechanism for understanding on semiconductor devices and circuits are revealed.
