An enhancement mode p-GaN gate AlGaN/GaN HEMT is proposed and a physics based virtual source charge model with Landauer approach for electron transport has been developed using Verilog-A and simulated using Cadence Spectre,in order to predict device characteristics such as threshold voltage,drain current and gate capacitance.The drain current model incorporates important physical effects such as velocity saturation,short channel effects like DIBL (drain induced barrier lowering),channel length modulation (CLM),and mobility degradation due to self-heating.The predicted Id-Vds,Id-Vgs,and C-V characteristics show an excellent agreement with the experimental data for both drain current and capacitance which validate the model.The developed model was then utilized to design and simulate a single-pole single-throw (SPST) RF switch.
