Freescale Semiconductor
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
This device is a common - source, RF power, N - Channel
enhancement mode, Lateral Metal - Oxide Semiconductor
Field - Effect Transistor (MOSFET). Freescale Application
Note AN211A, “FETs in Theory and Practice”, is suggested
reading for those not familiar with the construction and characteristics of FETs.
This surface mount packaged device was designed primarily for VHF and UHF mobile power amplifier applications.
Manufacturability is improved by utilizing the tape and reel
capability for fully automated pick and placement of parts.
However, care should be taken in the design process to insure proper heat sinking of the device.
The major advantages of Lateral RF power MOSFETs include high gain, simple bias systems, relative immunity from
thermal runaway, and the ability to withstand severely mismatched loads without suffering damage.
MOSFET CAPACITANCES
The physical structure of a MOSFET results in capacitors
between all three terminals. The metal oxide gate structure
determines the capacitors from gate - to - drain (Cgd), and
gate - to - source (Cgs). The PN junction formed during fabrication of the RF MOSFET results in a junction capacitance
from drain - to - source (Cds). These capacitances are characterized as input (Ciss), output (Coss) and reverse transfer
(Crss) capacitances on data sheets. The relationships between the inter - terminal capacitances and those given on
data sheets are shown below. The Ciss can be specified in
two ways:
1. Drain shorted to source and positive voltage at the gate.
2. Positive voltage of the drain in respect to source and zero
volts at the gate.
In the latter case, the numbers are lower. However, neither
method represents the actual operating conditions in RF applications.

DRAIN CHARACTERISTICS
One critical figure of merit for a FET is its static resistance
in the full - on condition. This on - resistance, RDS(on), occurs
in the linear region of the output characteristic and is specified at a specific gate - source voltage and drain current. The
drain - source voltage under these conditions is termed
VDS(on). For MOSFETs, VDS(on) has a positive temperature
coefficient at high temperatures because it contributes to the
power dissipation within the device.
BVDSS values for this device are higher than normally required for typical applications. Measurement of BVDSS is not
recommended and may result in possible damage to the device.
GATE CHARACTERISTICS
The gate of the RF MOSFET is a polysilicon material, and
is electrically isolated from the source by a layer of oxide.
The DC input resistance is very high - on the order of 109 Ω
— resulting in a leakage current of a few nanoamperes.
Gate control is achieved by applying a positive voltage to
the gate greater than the gate - to - source threshold voltage,
VGS(th).
Gate Voltage Rating — Never exceed the gate voltage
rating. Exceeding the rated VGS can result in permanent
damage to the oxide layer in the gate region.
Gate Termination — The gates of these devices are essentially capacitors. Circuits that leave the gate open - circuited or floating should be avoided. These conditions can
result in turn - on of the devices due to voltage build - up on
the input capacitor due to leakage currents or pickup.
Gate Protection — These devices do not have an internal
monolithic zener diode from gate - to - source. If gate protection is required, an external zener diode is recommended.
Using a resistor to keep the gate - to - source impedance low
also helps dampen transients and serves another important
function. Voltage transients on the drain can be coupled to
the gate through the parasitic gate - drain capacitance. If the
gate - to - source impedance and the rate of voltage change
on the drain are both high, then the signal coupled to the gate
may be large enough to exceed the gate - threshold voltage
and turn the device on.
DC BIAS
Since this device is an enhancement mode FET, drain current flows only when the gate is at a higher potential than the
source. RF power FETs operate optimally with a quiescent
drain current (IDQ), whose value is application dependent.
This device was characterized at IDQ = 800 mA, which is the
suggested value of bias current for typical applications. For
special applications such as linear amplification, IDQ may
have to be selected to optimize the critical parameters.
The gate is a dc open circuit and draws no current. Therefore, the gate bias circuit may generally be just a simple resistive divider network. Some special applications may
require a more elaborate bias system.
GAIN CONTROL
Power output of this device may be controlled to some degree with a low power dc control signal applied to the gate,
thus facilitating applications such as manual gain control,
ALC/AGC and modulation systems. This characteristic is
very dependent on frequency and load line.

first pass approximation.
Since RF power MOSFETs are triode devices, they are not
unilateral. This coupled with the very high gain of this device
yields a device capable of self oscillation. Stability may be
achieved by techniques such as drain loading, input shunt
resistive loading, or output to input feedback. The RF test fixture implements a parallel resistor and capacitor in series
with the gate, and has a load line selected for a higher efficiency, lower gain, and more stable operating region. See
Freescale Application Note AN215A, “RF Small - Signal
Design Using Two - Port Parameters” for a discussion of two
port network theory and stability.

MOUNTING
The specified maximum thermal resistance of 0.75°C/W
assumes a majority of the 0.170″ x 0.608″ source contact on
the back side of the package is in good contact with an appropriate heat sink. As with all RF power devices, the goal of
the thermal design should be to minimize the temperature at
the back side of the package.
AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Impedance matching networks similar to those used with
bipolar transistors are suitable for this device. For examples
see Freescale Application Note AN721, “Impedance
Matching Networks Applied to RF Power Transistors.”
Large - signal impedances are provided, and will yield a good
