Abstract
An electronic component includes at least three terminals extending from a component package. The component includes a depletion-mode III-N transistor, and an enhancement-mode transistor in the package. A gate electrode of the enhancement-mode transistor is electrically connected to the first terminal, a source electrode of the enhancement-mode transistor and a gate electrode of the depletion-mode III-N transistor are electrically connected to the second terminal, a drain electrode of the enhancement-mode transistor is electrically connected to a source electrode of the depletion-mode III-N transistor, and a drain electrode of the depletion-mode III-N transistor is electrically connected to the third terminal. The drain electrode includes multiple drain pads each sequentially a further distance from the third terminal, where a wire-bond extends from each drain pad to the third terminal, each wire-bond having a length, where a diameter of the longest wire-bond is greater than the diameter of the shortest wire-bond.
