Industrial View of III–V Devices Compact Modeling for Circuit Design

This paper presents a commercial or industrial view of III-V compact models for circuit design. We contrast the requirements of III-V modeling to those of silicon. The differences in requirements are strongly rooted in the applications that III-V devices are used in the end user of III-V models and the differences in the “ecosystems” of the technologies. These differences create both challenges and opportunity for the III-V modeling community.
