A simplified model for the effect of interfinger metal on maximum temperature rise in a multifinger bipolar transistor.

The prediction of a simple lumped representation of heat sharing through emitter interconnect in high-power multiemitter bipolar devices is compared to numerical thermal simulation and found to exhibit nonphysical results. Using numerical simulation, interfinger metal heat flow is characterized qual...
