In his book of 1978 I. Getreu gives an account of the Gummel-Poon transistor model and describes a series of measurements, which provides data for the estimation of the model parameters. Exploiting and partly improving the graphical methods of Getreu, the authors suggest some algorithms for the practical evaluation of the model parameters in the PC environment. The algorithms are intended mainly for the CAD design of circuits in industrial applications and they provide estimates for the input parameters of circuit analyzing programs such as SPICE. The algorithms are implemented on IBM PC in the Turbo PASCAL language.
