DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
[0066] Implementation 1: one implementation of a general four-port on-wafer high frequency de-embedding method for a case in which parasitics to be stripped form a general parasitic four-port network
[0067] (1) Five on-wafer de-embedding dummies are designed and fabricated together with a device under test (DUT) to be de-embedded, i.e., five on-wafer de-embedding two-port dummies generally adopted in the prior art of the general four-port on-wafer high frequency de-embedding method, including: Open (O), Short (S), Left (L), Right (R) and strip-line Thru (T). However, no assumption is made on the form of their equivalent circuits as in
[0068] (2) By an on-wafer high frequency measurement instruments and techniques, the whole Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.M of said DUT and the whole Y-parameter admittance matrices, which are respectively denoted by Y.sub.MO, Y.sub.MS, Y.sub.ML, Y.sub.MR and Y.sub.MT, of said five on-wafer de-embedding dummies are obtained by measurement.
[0069] (3) In the premise of giving consideration to the distributive nature of high frequency characteristics of said on-wafer de-embedding dummies, models for said Open (O), Short (S), Left (L), Right (R) and Thru (T) are built in a passive electromagnetic field simulation software environment, respectively, according to structures as shown in
[0070] (4) An equation set Y.sub.Mj=Y.sub.ee−Y.sub.ei (Y.sub.Aj(σ, ∈.sub.r)+Y.sub.ii).sup.−1Y.sub.ie (j=O,S,L,R,T) is solved for the elements of the related admittance matrixes Y.sub.ee, Y.sub.ii, Y.sub.ei and Y.sub.ie of the parasitic four-port network to be stripped in de-embedding and said model parameters σ and ∈.sub.r as unknowns. Specifically, the following steps are included:
[0071] (4-1) on the basis that initial default values are taken for the model parameters σ and ∈.sub.r respectively, obtaining the values of Y.sub.Aj(σ, ∈.sub.r)(j=O, S, L, R, T) by passive electromagnetic field simulation;
[0072] (4-2) after solving an equation set Y.sub.Mj=Y.sub.ee−Y.sub.ei(Y.sub.Aj(σ, ∈.sub.r)+Y.sub.ii).sup.−1Y.sub.ie (j=O, S, L, R) by using the known measurement values Y.sub.Mj (j=O, S, L, R) of the first four on-wafer de-embedding dummies and said simulated values Y.sub.Aj(σ,∈.sub.r)(j=O,S, L, R) to obtain the values of Y.sub.ee, Y.sub.ii, Y.sub.ei and Y.sub.ie, substituting the known measurement values Y.sub.MT of the strip-line Thru T and said obtained values of Y.sub.ee, Y.sub.ii, Y.sub.ei and Y.sub.ie into Y.sub.DT=−Y.sub.ii−Y.sub.ie(Y.sub.MT−Y.sub.ee).sup.−1Y.sub.ei to obtain by calculation the de-embedded Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.DT of the strip-line Thru T;
[0073] (4-3) comparing the calculated Y.sub.DT with the simulated value Y.sub.AT(σ, ∈.sub.r) of the strip-line Thru T already obtained in Step (4-1), properly correcting the values of the model parameters σ and ∈.sub.r and then turning back to Step (4-1) if the difference between the two does not meet the set error standard, and obtaining the values of Y.sub.Aj(σ,∈.sub.r)(j=O, S, L, R, T) again by passive electromagnetic field simulation by using the corrected model parameters; and
[0074] (4-4) once turning back to Step (4-1), starting a cyclic iterative fitting process from Step (4-1) to Step (4-3), performing iterative optimization fitting by optimization algorithms such as inverse modeling, and continuously correcting the values of the model parameters σ and ∈.sub.r used for simulation of intrinsic Y-parameter admittance matrices of the on-wafer de-embedding dummies until a difference between the de-embedded Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.DT of the strip-line Thru T and the corresponding simulated value Y.sub.AT (σ, ∈.sub.r) meets a set error standard, that is, determining the final values for the undetermined mode parameters σ and ∈.sub.r which are necessary for the simulation of the on-wafer de-embedding dummies by this iterative fitting between Y.sub.DT and Y.sub.AT (σ, ∈.sub.r).
[0075] (5) The solved Y.sub.ee, Y.sub.ii, Y.sub.ei and Y.sub.ie and the whole Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.M of said DUT obtained by measurement are substituted into the right side of Y.sub.A=−Y.sub.ii−Y.sub.ie(Y.sub.M−Y.sub.ee).sup.−1Y.sub.ei to complete said general four-port on-wafer high frequency de-embedding. That is, the intrinsic Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.A of said DUT is calculated by using the whole Y-parameter admittance matrix Y.sub.M of said DUT obtained by measurement.
