Research Assistant
Responsibilities:
- Extracted a linear model for each device and a better scaling rule for each parameter. Demonstrated accurate scaling rules for each intrinsic and extrinsic parameter, by a multi device optimization.
- Conventionally developed a temperature dependent model of HEMT, based on individual linear model extraction of parameters like transconductance, resistance, and inductance at varying temperatures. Multiple temperature optimization of the model for each parameter revealed a substantial decrease in extrinsic inductance, a both increase and decrease in transconductance with increasing temperature. An accurate temperature dependent linear HEMT can be devised on these grounds.
- Extracted a scalable DC HEMT model by, correlating the scaling rules for each size dependent parameter of multiple devices. Optimized five devices with constant unit gate width and varying finger numbers along with, five devices with the vice versa for both DC HEMT and Diode model. Achieved accurate scaling for individual parameters and good I-V fitting for each device, with confirmed scaling rule for self-heating effect. Compared the experimental data to the theoretical for temperature distribution of all the devices in linear region, and the results were found to be close and accurate.

Smart Management System
Responsibilities:
- Utilized the SMS facility provided by cellular phone services to manage pre-assigned jobs to employees using the Oxygen Gateway software. Designed the project made it more flexible, time convenient for the employees on the field and increase employee productivity by appropriate assignment of next field of work.
- The analog comparator designed was a simple CMOS differential amplifier whose output was fed into a common source amplifier for high gain.
- The amplifier was designed with high open loop gain in order to switch with the smallest possible difference between the inputs.
