This study carried out a detail analysis of the perform anc e of HEMT device with various numb ers of gate finger s with respect to their DC and RF performances. The dev ices were fabrica ted by a Plessey found ry which adapted a HEMT process with 0.2 um GaAs technology. A few stages were tak en durin g thi s study to obtain the des ired per form ance for eac h device layout. Th e first was to perform device simulation of different layout s in order to get a preliminary resul t. This simulation result was used as a refere nce durin g the seco nd stage which consis ted of actual dev ice measurement. The measurement was don e using on-wa fer measurem ent technique within the frequency range from 100 MHz to 40 GHz.
