Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause permanent damage to this device. 8. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these survivability limits. 9. Junction temperature directly effects device MTTF. Junction temperature should be kept as low as possible to maximize lifetime. Please observe the following precautions to avoid damage: Static Sensitivity These electronic devices 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 1A devices. 2 MACOM Technology Solutions Inc.

V3 Recommended PCB Layout Detail: RF input and output pre-matching circuit patterns are designed to compensate packaging effects. Transmission line dimensions apply to a PCB with 0.203 mm thick Rogers RO4003C laminate dielectric. Performance curves shown in this data sheet were measured with these circuit patterns. 1685 Plated Through Hole D=0.2 1810 200 810 250 810 430 430 500 500 225 595 430 225 All units are in microns 185 185 Underneath of the package must be Copper filled plated through holes. D = 0.2 mm and Space = 0.43 mm Total Via-holes = 8 x 8 Biasing Conditions Recommended biasing conditions are VD = 6 V, IDQ = 900 mA (controlled with VG). The drain bias voltage range is 3 to 6 V, and the quiescent drain current biasing range is 600 to 1200 mA. VG pins 10 and 11 are connected internally; choose either pin for layout convenience. Muting can be accomplished by setting the VG to the pinched off voltage (VG = -2 V). 4 VD bias must be applied to VD1, VD2, VD3, and VD4 pins. VD3 pins 27 and 28 are connected internally: choose either pin for layout convenience. Two VD4 pins 15 and 26 (not connected internally) are required for current symmetry. Operating the MAAP-011246 Turn-on 1. Apply VG (-1.5 V). 2. Apply VD (6.0 V typical). 3. Set IDQ by adjusting VG more positive (typically -0.9 to -1.0 V for IDQ = 900 mA). 4. Apply RFIN signal. Turn-off 1. Remove RFIN signal. 2. Decrease VG to -1.5 V. 3. Decrease VD to 0 V. MACOM Technology Solutions Inc.
