A SPICE model for simulating the impedance-frequency characteristics of high frequency PIN switching diodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
A SPICE model for the microwave and RF PIN switching diode is presented. The model simulates the important Iregion charge storage phenomenon and its effect on the PIN diode impedance-frequency characteristic. The SPICE model is described and validated by comparisons with both analytical and measured results.

Modeling Low Magnetic Moment PIN diodes for MR Scanner Applications
Ultra Low Magnetic Moment (ULM) PIN diodes cause the smallest possible magnetic artifacts in high field MR Imaging. Designers of MR scanners often use CAD packages to simulate their designs but there are no models available in these CAD packages to simulate these important devices until now. A new model for PIN diodes used in MR scanners is presented and is applicable for devices used in higher...

Ultra Low Magnetic Moment (ULM) PIN diodes cause the smallest possible magnetic artifacts in high field MR Imaging. Designers of MR scanners often use CAD packages to simulate their designs but up until now, there have been no models available that show the behavior of the PIN diode in its ON and OFF state as well as in the switching transition between states. A new model for PIN diodes used in...
متن کاملAnalysis and Simulation of ZVS Methods in Full Bridge Converters and Realization of a 3 KW Prototype
One of the difficulties with PWM switching converters is high switching loss and electromagnetic interference due to switching at non-zero voltage and current, which limits the operating frequency. In order to reduce the converter volume and weight (by increasing the frequency) and reducing switching losses, zero voltage and current switching methods are recommended. In this paper, four main ze...

متن کاملComplementary Split Ring Resonator Effects on Radiation Pattern Reconfigurable Circular Microstrip Antennas
In this study, a radiation pattern reconfigurable microstrip antenna is designed and fabricated. The antenna’s radiation pattern is directed in 9 different angles by employing a radiating patch and embedding complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) on the ground plane. The radiating patch is of circular shape, while for CSRR elements both circular and rectangular shapes are investigated. The ...
