Proper ESD control techniques should be used when handling these devices. The PCB dielectric between RF traces and RF ground layers should be chosen to reduce RF discontinuities between 50 lines and package pins. M/A-COM recommends an FR-4 dielectric thickness of 0.008” (0.20 mm) yielding a 50 line width of 0.015” (0.38 mm). The recommended RF metalization is 1 ounce copper. 4 M/A-COM Inc. and its affiliates reserve the right to make changes to the product(s) or information contained herein without notice.
