MICROWAVE CORPORATION v02.0304 HMC441 GaAs PHEMT MMIC MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIER, 6.0 - 18.0 GHz Features Gain: 15.5 dB Saturated Power: +22 dBm @ 23% PAE Single Supply Voltage: +5.0 V w/ Optional Gate Bias 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output 1 AMPLIFIERS - CHIP Typical Applications The HMC441 is ideal for use as a medium power amplifier for: * Point-to-Point Radios * Point-to-Multi-Point Radios * VSAT * LO Driver for HMC Mixers * Military EW & ECM Functional Diagram General Description The HMC441 is an efficient GaAs PHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier which operates between 6.0 and 18.0 GHz*. The amplifier provides 15.5 dB of gain, +22 dBm of saturated power, and 23% PAE from a +5.0 V supply voltage. An optional gate bias is provided to allow adjustment of gain, RF output power, and DC power dissipation. The HMC441 amplifier can easily be integrated into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs) due to its small (.99mm2) size. The backside of the die is both RF and DC ground, simplifying the assembly process and reducing performance variation. All data is tested with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via 0.025mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of minimal length 0.31mm (12 mils).

If 0.254mm (10 mil) thick alumina thin film substrates must be used, the die should be raised 0.150mm (6 mils) so that the surface of the die is coplanar with the surface of the substrate. One way to accomplish this is to attach the 0.102mm (4 mil) thick die to a 0.150mm (6 mil) thick molybdenum heat spreader (moly-tab) which is then attached to the ground plane (Figure 2). Microstrip substrates should brought as close to the die as possible in order to minimize bond wire length. Typical dieto-substrate spacing is 0.076mm to 0.152 mm (3 to 6 mils). 1 - 66 For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 12 Elizabeth Drive, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order Online at www.hittite.com MICROWAVE CORPORATION v02.0304 HMC441 GaAs PHEMT MMIC MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIER, 6.0 - 18.0 GHz Handling Precautions Follow these precautions to avoid permanent damage. Cleanliness: Handle the chips in a clean environment. DO NOT attempt to clean the chip using liquid cleaning systems. Static Sensitivity: Follow ESD precautions to protect against > 250V ESD strikes. Transients: Suppress instrument and bias supply transients while bias is applied. Use shielded signal and bias cables to minimize inductive pick-up. General Handling: Handle the chip along the edges with a vacuum collet or with a sharp pair of bent tweezers. The surface of the chip has fragile air bridges and should not be touched with vacuum collet, tweezers, or fingers. 1 AMPLIFIERS - CHIP 1 - 67 Mounting The chip is back-metallized and can be die mounted with AuSn eutectic preforms or with electrically conductive epoxy. The mounting surface should be clean and flat. Eutectic Die Attach: A 80/20 gold tin preform is recommended with a work surface temperature of 255 deg. C and a tool temperature of 265 deg. C. When hot 90/10 nitrogen/hydrogen gas is applied, tool tip temperature should be 290 deg. C. DO NOT expose the chip to a temperature greater than 320 deg. C for more than 20 seconds. No more than 3 seconds of scrubbing should be required for attachment. Epoxy Die Attach: Apply a minimum amount of epoxy to the mounting surface so that a thin epoxy fillet is observed around the perimeter of the chip once it is placed into position. Cure epoxy per the manufacturer's schedule. Wire Bonding Ball or wedge bond with 0.025mm (1 mil) diameter pure gold wire. Thermosonic wirebonding with a nominal stage temperature of 150 deg. C and a ball bonding force of 40 to 50 grams or wedge bonding force of 18 to 22 grams is recommended. Use the minimum level of ultrasonic energy to achieve reliable wirebonds. Wirebonds should be started on the chip and terminated on the package or substrate. All bonds should be as short as possible <0.31mm (12 mils).
