ZO-28/F
BIAS DEVICE
Thermal Tracking
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ZO-28/F is a bias device designed to work with very high power BiPolar
transistors, operating Class A and AB. It has extremely low source impedance
and high current handling capability. The package may be physically mounted
to the same heat sink as the RF transistor, providing very accurate thermal
tracking.

Z0-28/F
Design of the Z0-28
The Z0-28 consists of three semiconductor elements, a transistor and two diodes. The only additional component
necessary is resistor Rc ( see figure) and the RF filtering necessary with any bias system. The Z0-28 operates as an emitter
follower, which accounts for its very low source impedance. The transistor can be operated from any voltage up to 28
Volts. The Z0-28 is capable of 40 Watts power dissipation, enough for most current and Voltage requirements. The power
transistor's quiescent base Voltage is determined by the value of Rc and the supply Voltage.
The two diodes provide the thermal tracking needed for thermally stable operation. One diode compensates for the RF
transistor's base-emitter junction in the Z0-28. By mounting the Z0-28 in thermal contact with the power transistor, the
other diode can compensate for the power devices base-emitter junction. The diodes are fabricated with the same
technology as the RF power transistor for improved thermal stability.
