Abstract
A nonquasi-static (NQS) model accounting for intrinsic carrier propagation delays in both B/E and B/C junctions is implemented in the ASTAP circuit simulator to evaluate the impact of non-quasi-static effects in saturated bipolar circuits. It is shown that while the extra delay introduced by the NQS effects during the turn-on transition is primarily due to the normal mode B/E NQS delay time, the more severe NQS delay in the turnoff transition is caused mainly by the removal of the saturation overdrive charges and the longer inverse mode B/C NQS delay time.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
