Abstract

A complete analytical formulation of thermal runaway in silicon bipolar transistors was developed. An accurate expression for the temperature increase above ambient at the onset of thermal runaway was derived and verified. It was demonstrated that such an expression can be also useful to accurately evaluate the thermal resistance. The analytical formulation was validated by electrical measurements and simulations of silicon-on-glass BJT's with high thermal resistance.
