As opposed to a typical depletion mode PHEMT where the gate must be made negative with respect to the source for proper operation, an enhancement mode PHEMT requires that the gate be made more positive than the source for normal operation. Therefore a negative power supply voltage is not required for an enhancement mode device. Biasing an enhancement mode PHEMT is much like biasing the typical bipolar junction transistor. Instead of a 0.7V base to emitter voltage, the ATF-55143 enhancement mode PHEMT requires about a 0.47V potential between the gate and source for a nominal drain current of 10 mA. Matching Networks The techniques for im pedance matching an enhancement mode device are very similar to those for matching a depletion mode device. The only difference is in the method of supplying gate bias. S and Noise Parameters for various bias conditions are listed in this data sheet. The circuit shown in Figure 1 shows a typical LNA circuit normally used for 900 and 1900 MHz applications (Consult the Agilent Technologies website for application notes covering specific applications). High pass impedance matching networks consisting of L1/C1 and L4/C4 pr ovide the appropriate match for noise figure, gain, S11 and S22. The high pass structure also provides low frequency gain reduction which can be beneficial from the standpoint of improving out-of-band rejection. R4 OUTPUT Zo L3 C2 C5 R3 R5 R1 C3 C6 R2 Vdd Figure 1. Typical ATF-55143 LNA with Passive Biasing. Capacitors C2 and C5 pr ovide a low impedance in-band RF bypass for the matching networks. Resistors R3 and R4 provide a very important low frequency termination for the device. The resistive termination improves low frequency stability. Capacitors C3 and C6 provide the low frequency RF bypass for resistors R3 and R4. Their value should be chosen carefully as C3 and C6 also provide a termination for low frequency mixing products. These mixing products are as a result of two or more inband signals mixing and producing third order in-band distortion products. The low frequency or difference mixing products are terminated by C3 and C6. For best suppression of third order distortion products based on the CDMA 1.25 MHz signal spacing, C3 and C6 should be 0.1 µF in value. Smaller values of capacitance will not suppress the generation of the 1.25 MHz difference signal and as a result will show up as poorer two tone IP3 results. Bias Networks One of the major advantages of the enhancement mode technology is that it allows the designer to be able to dc ground the source leads and then merely apply a positive voltage on the gate to set the desired amount of quiescent drain cur rent Id. 14 Whereas a depletion mode PHEMT pulls maximum drain current when Vgs = 0V, an enhancement mode PHEMT pulls only a small amount of leakage current when Vgs =0 V. Only when Vgs is increased above Vth , the device threshold voltage, will drain cur rent star t to flow. At a Vds of 2.7V and a nominal Vgs of 0.47V, the drain cur rent Id will be approximately 10 mA. The data sheet suggests a minimum and maximum Vgs over which the desired amount of drain current will be achieved. It is also important to note that if the gate terminal is lef t open circuited, the device will pull some amount of drain current due to leakage current creating a voltage differential between the gate and source terminals. Passive Biasing Passive biasing of the ATF-55143 is accomplished by the use of a voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2. The voltage for the divider is deriv ed from the drain voltage which provides a form of voltage feedback through the use of R3 to help keep drain current constant. Resistor R5 (approximately 10 kΩ) is added to limit the gate current of enhancement mode devices such as the ATF-55143. This is especially important when the device is driven to P1dB or PSAT. Resistor R3 is calculated based on desired Vds , Ids and available power supply voltage. R3 = VDD – Vds Ids + IBB (1) p VDD is the power supply voltage. Vds is the device drain to source voltage. Ids is the desired drain current. IBB is the current flowing through the R1/R2 resistor voltage divider network. The values of resistors R1 and R2 are calculated with the following formulas C4 C1 INPUT Zo L1 Vgs IBB R5 (2) L3 C2 R1 = C5 R4 p IBB C3 R6 R2 = (Vds – Vgs) R1 Vgs (3) Example Circuit VDD = 3V Vds = 2.7V Ids = 10 mA Vgs = 0.47V Choose IBB to be at least 10X the normal expected gate leakage current. IBB was conservatively chosen to be 0.5 mA for this example. Using equations (1), (2), and (3) the resistors are calculated as follows R1 = 940Ω R2 = 4460 Ω R3 = 28.6 Ω Active Biasing Active biasing provides a means of keeping the quiescent bias point constant over temperature and constant over lot to lot variations in de vice dc performance. The advantage of the active biasing of an enhancement mode PHEMT versus a depletion mode PHEMT is that a negative power source is not required. The techniques of active biasing an enhancement mode device are very similar to those used to bias a bipolar junction transistor. C7 Vdd R7 R3 R2 R1 Figure 2. Typical ATF-55143 LNA with ActiveBiasing. An active bias scheme is shown in Figure 2. R1 and R2 provide a constant voltage source at the base of a PNP transistor at Q2. The constant voltage at the base of Q2 is raised by 0.7 volts at the emitter. The constant emitter voltage plus the regulated VDD supply are present across resistor R3. Constant voltage across R3 provides a constant current supply for the drain current. Resistors R1 and R2 are used to set the desired Vds. The combined series value of these resistors also sets the amount of extra current consumed by the bias network. The equations that describe the circuit’s operation are as follows. VE = Vds + (Ids • R4) (1) VDD – VE Ids (2) R3 = p VB = VE – VBE (3) R1 V R1 + R2 DD (4) VDD = IBB (R1 + R2) (5) VB = p Rearranging equation (4) provides the following formula R2 = VDD V – VB 1 + DD VB ( 9 ) (5A) p C6 Q2 p and rearranging equation (5) provides the following formula L4 L2 R1 = OUTPUT Q1 Zo R1 (VDD – VB) VB 15 (4A) p Example Circuit VDD = 3V IBB = 0.5 mA Vds = 2.7V Ids = 10 mA R4 = 10Ω V BE = 0.7V Equation (1) calculates the required voltage at the emitter of the PNP transistor based on desired Vds and Ids through resistor R4 to be 2.8V. Equation (2) calculates the value of resistor R3 which determines the drain current Ids. In the example R3 =20Ω. Equation (3) calculates the voltage required at the junction of resistors R1 and R2. This voltage plus the step-up of the base emitter junction determines the regulated Vds . Equations (4) and (5) are solved simultaneously to determine the value of resistors R1 and R2. In the example R1=4200 Ω and R2 =180 0Ω. R7 is chosen to be 1kΩ. This resistor keeps a small amount of current flowing through Q2 to help maint ain bias stability. R6 is chosen to be 10kΩ. This value of resistance is necessary to limit Q1 gate current in the presence of high RF drive levels (especially when Q1 is driven to the P1dB gain compression point). C7 provides a low frequency bypass to keep noise from Q2 effecting the operation of Q1. C7 is typically 0.1 µF.

Adding Vias to the ATF-55143 Non-Linear Model for Comparison to Measured S and Noise Parameters. 17 Noise Parameter Applications Information Fmin values at 2 GHz and higher are based on measurements while t he Fmins below 2 GHz ha ve been extrapolated. The Fmin values are based on a set of 16 noise f igure measurements made at 16 different impedances using an ATN NP5 test system. From these measurements, a true Fmin is calculated. Fmin represents the true minimum noise figure of the device when the device is presented wit h an impedance matching network that transforms the source impedance, typically 50Ω, to an impedance represented by the reflection coefficient Γo. The designer must design a matching network that will present Γo to the device with minimal associated circuit losses. The noise figure of the completed amplifier is equal to the noise f igure of the device plus the losses of the matching netw ork preceding the device. The noise figure of the device is equal to Fmin only when the device is presented with Γo. If the ref lection coefficient of the matching network is other than Γo, then the noise figure of the device will be g reater than Fmin based on t he following equation. |Γs – Γo | 2 NF = Fmin + 4 Rn Zo (|1 + Γo| 2) (1 - |Γs| 2) Where Rn /Zo is the normalized noise resistance, Γo is the optimum reflection coefficient required to produce Fmin and Γs is the reflection coefficient of the source impedance actually presented to the device. The losses of the matching networks are non-zero and they will also add to the noise figure of the device creating a higher amplifier noise figure. The losses of the matching networks are related to the Q of the components and associated printed circuit board loss. Γo is typically fairly low at higher frequencies and increases as frequency is lowered. Larger gate width devices will typically have a lower Γo as compared to narrower gate width devices. 18 Typically for FETs, the higher Γo usually infers that an impedance much higher than 50Ω is required for the device to produce Fmin. At VHF frequencies and even lower L Band frequencies, the required impedance can be in the vicinity of several thousand ohms. Matching to such a high impedance requires very hi-Q components in order to minimize circuit losses. As an example at 900 MHz, when airwound coils (Q > 100) are used for matching networks, the loss can still be up to 0.25 dB which will add directly to the noise figure of the device. Using multilayer molded inductors with Qs in the 30 to 50 range results in additional loss over the airwound coil. Losses as high as 0.5 dB or greater add to the typical 0.15 dB Fmin of the device creating an amplifier noise figure of nearly 0.65 dB. A discussion concerning calculated and measured circuit losses and their effect on amplifier noise figure is covered in Agilent Technologies Application 1085.
