| Recently, X-parameters have been introduced to model device non-linear behavior. In addition to providing a measurement-based tool to numerically predict non-linear in-band device behavior in CAD, they can also provide the designer of non-linear circuits the ability to improve the knowledge of the out-of-band device behavior. Exploiting this crucial design aspect, this work presents a novel measurement setup which enables small-signal X-parameters measurements, of non-linear devices driven by a large-signal tone at a frequency fc, in order to predict out-of-band performance at the perturbation frequency, fx, used for small-signal X-parameters extraction. | |
