Handling Procedures Please observe the following precautions to avoid damage: 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 devices. An external protection circuit using an inexpensive anti-parallel diode pair can be used to protect the IC. Please reference application note AN3028 on http://www.macomtech.com for further detail. 9. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be connected to ground for RF, DC and thermal considerations. 3 ADVANCED: Data Sheets contain information regarding a product M/A-COM Technology Solutions • North America Tel: 800.366.2266 • Europe Tel: +353.21.244.6400 is considering for development.
