Handling Procedure - Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by
static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques should
be used when handling these HBM Class 0A, CDM
Class II devices.
6. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
7. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these
survivability limits.
8. Junction Temperature (TJ) = TC + Өjc * (V * I)
Typical thermal resistance (Өjc) = 73° CW.
a) For TC = +25°C,
TJ = 57°C @ 5 V, 85 mA
b) For TC = +85°C,
TJ = 117°C @ 5 V, 85 mA
