Description
The CGB7001-BD is a Darlington Configured, high dynamic range,
utility gain block amplifier. Designed for applications operating
within the DC to 6.0 GHz frequency range, Mimix’s broadband,
cascadable, gain block amplifiers are ideal solutions for transmit,
receive and IF applications.
These MMIC amplifiers are available in bare die form. Mimix's
InGaP HBT technology and an industry low thermal resistance
offer a thermally robust and reliable gain block solution.
The InGaP HBT die have extra pads to enable thorough DC
testing. This unique test capability and the inclusion of ESD
protection on all die, significantly enhances the quality, reliability
and ruggedness of these products.

Handling and Assembly Information
CAUTION! - Mimix Broadband MMIC Products contain gallium arsenide (GaAs) which can be hazardous to the human body
and the environment. For safety, observe the following procedures:
Do not ingest.
Do not alter the form of this product into a gas, powder, or liquid through burning, crushing, or chemical
processing as these by-products are dangerous to the human body if inhaled, ingested, or swallowed.
Observe government laws and company regulations when discarding this product. This product must be
discarded in accordance with methods specified by applicable hazardous waste procedures.
Life Support Policy - Mimix Broadband's products are not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices or
systems without the express written approval of the President and General Counsel of Mimix Broadband. As used herein: (1)
Life support devices or systems are devices or systems which, (a) are intended for surgical implant into the body, or (b)
support or sustain life, and whose failure to perform when properly used in accordance with instructions for use provided in
the labeling, can be reasonably expected to result in a significant injury to the user. (2) A critical component is any component
of a life support device or system whose failure to perform can be reasonably expected to cause the failure of the life support
device or system, or to affect its safety or effectiveness.
ESD - Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) devices are susceptible to electrostatic and mechanical damage. Die are supplied in antistatic
containers, which should be opened in cleanroom conditions at an appropriately grounded anti-static workstation. Devices
need careful handling using correctly designed collets, vacuum pickups or, with care, sharp tweezers.
Die Attachment - GaAs Products from Mimix Broadband are 0.100 mm (0.004") thick. Microstrip substrates should be brought
as close to the die as possible. The mounting surface should be clean and flat. If using conductive epoxy, recommended
epoxies are Tanaka TS3332LD, Die Mat DM6030HK or DM6030HK-Pt cured in a nitrogen atmosphere per manufacturer's cure
schedule. Apply epoxy sparingly to avoid getting any on to the top surface of the die. An epoxy fillet should be visible around
the total die periphery. For additional information please see the Mimix "Epoxy Specifications for Bare Die" application note.
Wire Bonding - Windows in the surface passivation above the bond pads are provided to allow wire bonding to the die's gold
bond pads. The recommended wire bonding procedure uses Gold 0.025 mm (0.001") diameter ball bonds. Aluminum wire
should be avoided. Thermo-compression bonding is recommended though thermosonic bonding may be used providing the
ultrasonic content of the bond is minimized. Bond force, time and ultrasonics are all critical parameters. Bonds should be made
from the bond pads on the die to the package or substrate. All bonds should be as short as possible.
