MOSFET CAPACITANCES The physical structure of a MOSFET results in capacitors between the terminals. The metal oxide gate structure de- termines the capacitors from gate–to–drain (Cgd), and gate– to–source (Cgs). The PN junction formed during the fabrica- tion of the 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 zerovolts at the gate. In the latter case the numbers are lower. However, neither method represents the actual operating conditions in RF applications. The Ciss givenin the electrical characteristics table was measured using method 2 above. It should be noted that- Ciss, Coss, Crss are measured at zero drain current and are provided for general information about the device. They are not RF design parameters and no attempt should be made to use them as such. LINEARITY AND GAIN CHARACTERISTICS In addition to the typical IMD and power gain, data pre- sented in Figure 3 may give the designer additional infor- mation on the capabilities of this device. The graph repre- sents the small signal unity current gain frequency at a given drain current level. This is equivalent to fT for bipolar transistors. Since this test is performed at a fast sweep speed, heating of the device does not occur. Thus, in nor- mal use, the higher temperatures may degrade these char- acteristics to some extent. DRAIN CHARACTERISTICS One figure of merit for a FET is its static resistance in the full–on condition. This on–resistance, VDS(on), occurs in the linear region of the output characteristic and is specified un- der specific test conditions for gate–source voltage and drain current. For MOSFETs, VDS(on) has a positive temperature coefficient and constitutes an important design consideration at high temperatures, because it contributes to the power dissipation within the device. GATE CHARACTERISTICS The gate of the MOSFET is a polysilicon material, and is electrically isolated from the source by a layer of oxide. The input resistance is very high — on the order of 109 ohms — resulting in a leakage current of a few nanoamperes. Gate control is achieved by applying a positive voltage slightly in excess of the gate–to–source threshold voltage, VGS(th). Gate Voltage Rating — Never exceed the gate voltage rat- ing (or any of the maximum ratings on the front page). Ex- ceeding the rated VGS can result in permanent damage to the oxide layer in the gate region. Gate Termination — The gates of this device are essen- tially 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 protec- tion is required, an external zener diode is recommended. Using a resistor to keep the gate–to–source impedance low also helps damp 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. HANDLING CONSIDERATIONS When shipping, the devices should be transported only in antistatic bags or conductive foam. Upon removal from the packaging, careful handling procedures should be adhered to. Those handling the devices should wear grounding straps and devices not in the antistatic packaging should be kept in metal tote bins. MOSFETs should be handled by the case and not by the leads, and when testing the device, all leads should make good electrical contact before voltage is applied. As a final note, when placing the FET into the sys- tem it is designed for, soldering should be done with grounded equipment. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS The MRF175L is a RF power N–channel enhancement mode field–effect transistor (FETs) designed for HF, VHF andUHF power amplifier applications. M/A-COM RF MOS- FETs feature a vertical structure with a planar design. M/A- RF POWER MOSFET CONSIDERATIONS |
