4.2 Preventing Oscillation
Millimeter wave amplifiers are sensitive to low frequency oscillations caused by a DC/RF ground path with excessive inductance. Ensure the chip is grounded with low inductance along the DC path to voltage supply ground. The bypass arrangement is also critical to reducing the possibility of oscillation, and the series resistor B (shown above) with value 10 – 100 Ω is necessary to help strengthen the amplifier stability.

P R E 4.3 Constant Drain Current vs. Constant Gate Voltage Operation The AMM-7200 pHEMT amplifier can be biased with a constant gate and drain voltage, or with a constant drain current by regulating the gate voltage. Using a constant gate and drain voltage reduces circuit complexity, but has variable current consumption during operation. However, regulating the gate voltage using feedback circuitry which controls the drain current to a constant value minimizes unit-to-unit variation in gain, output power, and compression points. Under small signal excitation at a fixed temperature, these two appro aches are equivalent because the current draw versus frequency is relatively constant in small signal . However, they will diverge in large signal conditions, where the drain current is affected the input signal’s frequency and power. The output power in saturation is relatively unchanged, as it is more strongly dependent on the drain voltage. However, output referred 1 dB compression point will decrease by 2 -3 dB when operated with a constant drain current. 5. Mechanical Data
