amplifiers or HEMT devices.
The module also provides bias sequencing so that
pulsed drain voltage cannot be applied to a DUT
unless the negative gate bias voltage is present.
The applications section of this datasheet will show
how the module can be implemented for the
following two applications:
Application Option 1: Fixed negative gate
biasing with pulsed drain biasing.
Application Option 2: Pulsed negative gate

MABC-001000-DP000L
GaN Bias Controller/Sequencer Module
Dual Supply: -8 to -3 V, +12 to +55 V
Applications Section
Functional Description
The MABC-001000-DP000L GaN Bias Controller/
Sequencer Module circuitry provides proper
sequencing and generation of the gate voltage and
pulsed drain voltage for a device under test (DUT).
Reference the Product View and Pin Configuration
table on page 1. The basic functions of the circuits
within the module are described as follows:
Overhead Voltages for the Circuits within the
MABC-001000-DP000L Module
○
Pin 8 (VDS) is the Drain (+) Supply Voltage
that provides the input voltage to a low drop-
out linear regulator (VREG). This supplies
the positive voltage for the circuits within the
module. It also provides the Auxiliary
+4.3 V Output to Pin 11 (P4V).
Pin 5 (VGS) is the Gate (-) Supply Voltage
that is also used to supply the negative
voltage for the circuits within the module.
Pin 9 (SWG) MOS Switch Driver Output
○
An N-Channel MOSFET develops the
pulsed signal (SWG) to drive the
resistive divider network for the gate of an
external p-Channel HEXFET as shown in
Figure 1 on page 5. The input signal for the
internal MOSFET is provided by the output
from the sequencing circuits.
Rev. V2
Sequencing Circuits
○
A voltage comparator circuit senses if the
negative gate voltage is present as an input
on Pin 1 (GFB) - Gate Voltage (-) Feedback.
A logic circuit provides the switched input
enable signal for the N-Channel MOSFET.
The following 3 signals must be at correct
levels to generate the enable logic
signal:
Pin 12 (ENS) MOS Switch Enable TTL
Negative gate voltage (GFB) is present
The internal positive voltage output is
present from V_REG
○
○
Negative Gate Voltage for the Device Under
Test (DUT)
○
A voltage follower op-amp circuit provides a
low impedance output to Pin 3 (GCO) Gate
Voltage (-) Control Output. Pin 3 (GCO)
output is applied to the gate terminal of a
DUT a
s shown in Figure 1 on page 5
.
The reference voltage for the voltage
follower is provided by the Pin 4 (GCI) Gate
Voltage (-) Analog Input. This input
reference voltage is developed by an
external potentiometer/ resistive divider
circuit
as shown in Figure 1 on page 6. It is
recommended to use
the -8 V to -3 V
voltage that is also applied to Pin 5 (VGS).
Reference: The external potentiometer is
adjusted to set the gate voltage Pin 3 (GCO)
to the DUT. Alternative voltage inputs such
as a temperature compensation circuit or a
Digital-to-Analog (DAC) converter could also
be supplied to Pin 4 (GCI).

MABC-001000-DP000L
GaN Bias Controller/Sequencer Module
Dual Supply: -8 to -3 V, +12 to +55 V
Applications Section
Module Layout Guidelines
Reference the Product View, Pin Configuration
Table on page 1, and the Recommended Landing
Pattern on page 7.
The following recommendations should be followed
when the MABC-001000-DP000L module is used to
bias a high-power RF device or amplifier. The input
and output locations were determined so that the
layout and signal routing could be optimized when
interfacing with a high-power amplifier
assembly.
The negative gate voltage input and outputs are
located on the left side of the module and should
be located as close as possible to the gate bias
pads
on
the
high - power
am plif ier
assembly.
The positive pulsed voltages are located on the
right side of the module and should be located
as close as possible to the external MOSFET
switch. The MOSFET switch drain should be
located as close as possible to the drain bias
pads on the high-power amplifier assembly. The
charge storage capacitors should be
located as close as possible to the MOSFET
switch source terminal pads.
The module ground pads are located at Pins 7,
13, and 14.
Route all signal lines and ground returns to be
as short as possible and implement a ground
plane on the back of the printed wiring board
(PWB) if that option is available to the
designer. Following these layout criteria will
minimize circuit parasitics that degrade the
performance of the pulsed signal.
