Scaling factors for current and transit time are derived for polysilicon emitter, silicon based heterojunction bipolar transistors. It is shown that a simple set of analytical equations in integral form can be used to analyse the above scaling properties and by introducing two heterojunction factors can be extended to the scaling analysis of heterojunction bipolar transistors.
