Bias module for 50 V GaN demonstration boards
1. Introduction
GaN HEMT RF power transistors require temperature-compensated gate bias voltages,
similar to LDMOS devices, to maintain constant quiescent drain currents with
temperature. They are depletion mode devices requiring special bias and power
sequencing compared to LDMOS devices. This application note describes a bias
controller module which provides these functions, and overcurrent protection.
2. Bias sequencing
The most important consideration for DC with GaN HEMTs, is the bias sequencing. There
are two issues to consider:
• Never apply drain voltage when the gate is at 0 V, as the device draws excessive
drain current. Thus, any GaN bias controller must include sequenced drain voltage
switching.
• For a given VGS, GaN HEMTs are likely to be potentially unstable at lower VDS.
Therefore, decrease the gate voltage to below the pinch-off voltage VP (such as 3 V)
while the drain voltage is being turned on and off.
Figure 1 illustrates recommended power-up and power-down sequences for the drain and
gate voltages.

It is important that VGS is held at a voltage of less than VP until VDS is less than approximately 10 V.

3. Gate current
Because the GaN HEMT gate terminal is a Schottky diode, bias generators must provide
significant amounts of both positive and negative gate current:
• GaN HEMTs have higher gate leakage currents than comparable LDMOS devices.
The negative gate current can be as high as 500 A/mm of gate periphery at elevated
junction temperatures; the gate current evaluates to 5 mA for a 100 W device
operating at 200 C junction temperature.
• When the device is driven into saturation, rectified positive gate current flows into the
gate diode. At heavy RF compression, this gate current can exceed 1 mA/mm of gate
periphery causing a possible gate current of 30 mA for a 100 W device.
4. Temperature compensation
Similar to LDMOS devices, the gate threshold voltage for GaN devices is approximately
proportional to temperature. The gate threshold voltage is the voltage required to maintain
a constant quiescent drain current, which for Ampleon GaN devices, is about +1 mV/C
junction temperature. However, practical temperature compensation circuits are obliged to
monitor case temperature, where the temperature change is typically only half the junction
temperature change. Thus, the bias controller must increase VGS by about +2 mV/C.

6. Circuit description
6.1 Negative voltage generation
The bias controller uses a switched-capacitor voltage inverter, U1, to generate a regulated
4 V from a single positive supply. The +5 V supply is generated from the high-voltage
drain supply by linear regulator U4.
U1 operates at a switching frequency of approximately 550 kHz; C3, R4, and C10 are
used to reduce output ripple to less than 2 mV (p-p).
When the output voltage is within 5 % of the 4 V set value, the REG output goes LOW.
The REG output LOW signal acts as an active-LOW (power valid) signal to enable drain
power to the GaN device.

6.2 Drain voltage switching
Most lower power HEMT bias controllers use a P-channel power MOSFET as the drain
voltage load switch. This has the advantage of simplicity, often requiring nothing more
than level-shifting transistors between the voltage inverter ‘power valid’ signal and the
MOSFET gate. However, as load currents increase above 2 A to 5 A, the required
MOSFET becomes large and expensive. Consequently, this bias controller uses a
common hot-swap controller IC, U2 to drive an inexpensive N-channel MOSFET.

Drain voltage load switch circuit
U2 contains an internal charge pump for driving the gate of the external N-channel
MOSFET, Qdrain. It also includes a programmable ramp-up rate, and optional overcurrent
fault detection and foldback current limiting. If the voltage drop across sense resistor
Rsense exceeds 55 mV, U2 disconnects power from the drain, and leaves it latched off
until power is cycled.
Qdrain is a low-cost high-density TrenchMOS device in a small power SO8 package. It
has a typical on-resistance of less than 10 m and a drain current limit of more than 80 A.
6.3 Temperature compensation
The bias controller uses a small-signal PNP transistor (mounted in contact with the
baseplate) to monitor temperature and generate a +8 mV/C compensating voltage.

6.4 Gate voltage adjustment
A variable voltage derived from the 4 V supply is summed with the temperature monitor
voltage to generate a temperature-compensated gate voltage. R13 and R14 are selected
to set the desired gate voltage trim range, and R6 is selected to provide the desired
amount of temperature compensation. Figure 6 shows typical values for VGS = 1.6 V.
U3 is a dual rail-to-rail high-current operational amplifier chosen because it is stable into
any capacitive load. It can deliver more than 100 mA of output current to meet the positive
gate current requirements of most GaN HEMTs.

Gate voltage
The output impedance of the bias source is low (less than 1 ) because of the feedback
around operational amplifier U3. However, HEMT applications usually require a series
gate resistor of 5  to 20 , instead of a bias inductor, to ensure low-frequency device
stability.
Because the GaN HEMT quiescent gate current can increase at high temperatures, a
significant voltage drop can be developed across this gate resistor, increasing VGS by
200 mV or more. This can be a serious problem because the increased gate voltage can
push the HEMT operating point into a region of instability or even cause thermal runaway.

Bias module for 50 V GaN demonstration boards
One solution is to provide DC feedback from the HEMT gate terminal to the operational
amplifier inverting input, allowing it to compensate for voltage dropped across gate
resistor Rg. Feedback through R20 compensates for voltage dropped across Rg. To
minimize RF non-linearity and memory effects, make sure that 1 / (R20  C8) is less than
the lowest modulation frequency of the RF signal.
6.5 Resistor value selection
The resistor values in the schematic are for a 50 V device with a nominal VGS of 2.1 V,
+2 mV/C VGS temperature coefficient, and 11 A IDS overcurrent sense. Other nominal
operating conditions may require resistor value changes:
• R17 determines the supply voltage at which the drain is connected.
R17 = R3 (VD / 4  1), so VD = 31 V with the 68.1 k value in the design.
• R21 determines the supply voltage at which operating VGS is applied.
R21 = R15 (VD / 4.45  1), so VD(good) = 38 V with the 75.0 k value in the design.
• Rsense determines the foldback current limit. ILIMIT = 0.055 / Rsense, so ILIMIT = 11 A
with the 5 m value in the design.
6.6 Full schematic
The complete schematic of the bias controller combines the preceding subcircuits with
‘glue circuitry’ and several (possibly optional) additional convenience features.
• LEDs D1 and D2 provide visual indication of valid gate and drain voltages.
• Switch S1 allows the GaN amplifier to be placed easily in ‘standby’, where the
nominal gate voltages are applied, but drain power is disconnected.
• When S1 is set to ‘Vd on’ and the drain supply is not fully on (ramping up or down),
diode D3 and MOSFET Q3 turn on MOSFET Q2, pulling the gate voltage down to
4 V.
