V2 App Note [1] Biasing - The MADC-010736 is operated by biasing VD1, VD2, and VD3 at 4.0 V. The corresponding drain currents are set to 10 mA, 100 mA, and 180 mA respectively. V G4 requires a fixed voltage bias of nominally –3.0 V. It is recommended to use active bias on V G1, VG2, VG3 to keep the currents in VD1, VD2, and VD3 constant, in order to maintain the best performance over temperature. Depending on the supply voltages available and the power dissipation constraints, the bias circuits may include a single transistor or a low power operational amplifier, with a low value resistor in series with the drain supply to sense the current. Make sure to sequence the applied voltage to ensure negative gate bias is available before applying the positive drain supply. App Note [2] I/Q - For highest gain, best image rejection and lowest noise figure all 4 IF ports should be used. I/ I* and Q/Q* will combine through two 180 degree hybrid couplers generating inphase and quadrature phase components. Inphase and quadrature signals then need to be combined through 90 degree hybrid combiner to create IF output. App Note [3] Board Layout - It is recommended to provide 100 pF decoupling capacitors as close to the bias pins as possible. Additional 10 nF and 1 µF on each of the bias lines are recommended placed a distance further away. 180 deg Hybrid 90 deg Hybrid I I* 180 deg Hybrid VG3 VD3 3 2 1 BUF 2X Q* Q IF Output LO BUF 4 5 Q* Q 6 7 I 13 VD2 12 VG2 11 VD1 10 VG1 IRM I* LNA 8 9 VG4 RF 5 M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc.
