Detailed Description
The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and examples, it being understood that the specific embodiments herein described are merely illustrative of and not restrictive on the broad invention, and it should be further noted that for the purposes of description, only some, but not all, of the structures associated with the present invention are shown in the drawings.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of rf amplifiers according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the rf amplifier includes an input bias network 110, a depletion mode amplifier device 120, an output bias network 130, a voltage conversion network 140, a control switch circuit 150, and a bias power supply 160, an output terminal Vout1 of the input bias network 110 is electrically connected to an input terminal Vin2 of the depletion mode amplifier device 120, and an output terminal Vout3 of the output bias network 130 is electrically connected to an output terminal Vout2 of the depletion mode amplifier device 120.
The voltage conversion network 140 includes an input terminal Vin4, an output terminal Vout4, and a control signal output terminal Kout, the input terminal Vin4 of the voltage conversion network 140 is electrically connected to the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160, and the output terminal Vout4 of the voltage conversion network 140 is electrically connected to the input terminal Vin1 of the input bias network 110. The voltage conversion network 140 is used to convert the power supply voltage output by the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160 into the input bias voltage of the input bias network 110.
The control switch circuit 150 includes an th terminal A1, a second terminal A2 and a control terminal Kin, the control terminal Kin of the control switch circuit 150 is electrically connected to the control signal output terminal Kout of the voltage transformer network 140, the th terminal A1 of the control switch circuit 150 is electrically connected to the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160, the second terminal A2 of the control switch circuit 150 is electrically connected to the input terminal Vin3 of the output bias network 130, and the control switch circuit 150 is configured to transmit the supply voltage output from the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160 to the input terminal Vin3 of the output bias network 130 according to the control signal output from the control signal output terminal Kout of the voltage transformer network 140.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the input bias network 110 provides an input bias voltage to the depletion amplifier device 120 to control the operation state of the depletion amplifier device 120, the output bias network 130 provides an output bias voltage to the depletion amplifier device 120 to provide power required for the operation of the depletion amplifier device 120, the depletion amplifier device 120 has input bias threshold voltages, when the input bias voltage is lower than the input bias threshold voltage, the depletion amplifier device 120 is in an off state, no current is output from the output terminal Vout2 of the depletion amplifier device 120, the depletion amplifier device 120 cannot amplify the signal, when the input bias voltage is higher than the input bias threshold voltage, the depletion amplifier device 120 is in an on state, the current starts to appear at the output terminal Vout2 of the depletion amplifier device 120, the depletion amplifier device 120 can operate normally, and when the input bias voltage is higher than the input bias threshold voltage, the higher the current is at the output terminal 2 of the depletion amplifier device 120, the larger the amplification factor of the depletion amplifier device 120 is.
The input bias network 110 and the output bias network 130 share bias power supplies 160, wherein, the bias power supply 160 generates negative voltages at the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160 to input the bias network 110 and output the bias network 130 simultaneously, the input bias network 110 decouples and adjusts the negative voltages output by the voltage conversion network 140, and outputs the input bias voltage to the input terminal Vin2 of the depletion amplifier device 120. the bias power supply 160 controls whether to provide the voltage output by the bias power supply 160 to the output bias network 130 by controlling the switch circuit 150, when the switch circuit 150 is controlled to be conducted, the output bias network 130 decouples and adjusts the voltage provided by the bias power supply 160 to form the output bias voltage, and outputs the output bias voltage to the output terminal Vout2 of the depletion amplifier device 120.
the bias power supply 160 is a dc power supply and the output voltage of the bias power supply 160 is a positive voltage, while the input bias voltage of the input bias network 110 corresponding to the depletion-mode amplifier device 120 is a negative voltage and the output bias voltage of the output bias network 120 is a positive voltage, so the voltage converting network 140 is required to convert the voltage output from the output terminal Vout6 of the bias power supply 160 to provide the input bias voltage for the input bias network 110. the voltage output from the bias power supply 160 is a positive voltage, which is greater than the negative voltage output from the output terminal of the voltage converting network 140, so the voltage converting network 140 realizes voltage reduction.
Before the signal is input at the signal input end Vin, the voltage at the input end Vin2 of the depletion amplifier device 120 is zero, at this time, the depletion amplifier device 120 is in a conducting state and is far higher than the input bias threshold voltage when the depletion amplifier device 120 normally works (in the case of , the threshold voltage when the depletion amplifier device 120 normally works is negative), if the output bias voltage is provided by the output bias network 130, the current output at the output end Vout2 of the depletion amplifier device 120 is very large, which causes the burnout of the depletion amplifier device 120, therefore, the output bias voltage is provided to the output bias network 130 only after the input bias voltage of the input bias network 110 is negative, so as to avoid the burnout of the device.
In this process, the output bias network 130 is connected to a bias power supply 160 through a control switch circuit 150. When the control switch circuit 150 is turned on, the voltage output by the bias power supply 160 is transmitted to the input terminal Vin3 of the output bias network 130 to provide a positive voltage to the output bias network 130. The control signal output terminal Kout of the voltage converting network 140 is electrically connected to the control terminal Kin of the control switch circuit 150. When the output terminal Vout4 of the voltage transformer network 140 outputs the input bias voltage of the input bias network 110, the control signal output terminal Kout of the voltage transformer network 140 outputs a control signal to the control terminal Kin of the control switch circuit 150 to control the conduction thereof, so as to transmit the positive voltage output by the bias power supply 160 to the input terminal Vin3 of the output bias network 130, and the output bias network 130 decouples and adjusts the positive voltage to form an output bias voltage, and transmits the output bias voltage to the output terminal Vout2 of the depletion-type amplifier device 120. Therefore, the output bias network 130 can provide the output bias voltage for the depletion mode amplifier device 120 only after the input bias voltage of the input bias network 110 is loaded to the input terminal Vin2 of the depletion mode amplifier device 120, so that the phenomenon that the device is burnt due to the fact that the output current is too large because of too high input bias voltage is avoided.
According to the technical scheme of the embodiment, the voltage conversion network is arranged between the input bias network and the bias power supply, the voltage output by the bias power supply is converted into the input bias voltage, a single power supply simultaneously provides the input bias voltage and the output bias voltage for the radio frequency amplifier, and the number of the power supplies is reduced. And the voltage conversion network control signal output end outputs a control signal to control the switch circuit to be conducted, so that the voltage output by the bias power supply is transmitted to the input end of the output bias network through the control switch circuit, and the output bias voltage is provided for the depletion-mode amplifier device. Therefore, the output bias network can provide the output bias voltage for the depletion type amplifier device only after the input bias voltage of the input bias network is loaded to the input end of the depletion type amplifier device, and the phenomenon that the device is burnt due to the fact that the output bias voltage is too high and too large output current is generated is avoided.
