MTTF MTTF is calculated from accelerated life-time data of single devices and assumes an isothermal back-plate. App Note [1] Biasing - App Note [1] Biasing - The device is operated by biasing VD=4.0V with ID=240mA. Additionally, a mixer and doubler bias are also required with VG2=-0.5V. Adjusting Vg2 above or below this value can adversely affect conversion gain, image rejection and intercept point performance. The VC bias pin controls an integrated attenuator where VC=-1.3 V provides the minimum attenuation and VC = 0.0 V provides the maximum attenuation (approximately 25 dB). It is recommended to use active biasing to keep the currents constant as the RF power and temperature vary; this gives the most reproducible results. Depending on the supply voltage available and the power dissipation constraints, the bias circuit may be a single transistor or a low power operational amplifier, with a low value resistor in series with the drain supply used to sense the current. The gate of the pHEMT is controlled to maintain correct drain current and thus drain voltage. The typical gate voltage needed to do this is VG1= -0.4V. Typically the gate is protected with Silicon diodes to limit the applied voltage. Also, make sure to sequence the applied voltage to ensure negative gate bias is available before applying the positive drain supply.
