  • Self-biasing and self-sequencing of depletion mode transistors
    Patent number: 10825928
    Abstract: A transistor circuit includes a transistor having a gate terminal and first and second conduction terminals, a first circuit configured to convert an AC input signal of the transistor circuit to a gate bias voltage and to apply the gate bias voltage to the gate terminal of the transistor, a second circuit configured to convert the AC input signal of the transistor circuit to a control voltage, and a switching circuit configured to apply a first voltage to the first conduction terminal of the transistor in response to the control voltage.
    Type: Grant
