Description
M/A-COM’s MASW4060G is an SPDT absorptive or
reflective GaAs MESFET MMIC. This part combines
small size, low insertion loss and power
consumption with high isolation. Ideal for many
applications and module use. It will function well for
designs below 4.0 GHz.
The MASW4060G is fabricated using a mature 1micron gate length GaAs MESFET process. The
process features full chip passivation for increased
performance and reliability.

4. “G” pads designate internal grounds necessary to maintain
data sheet isolation. These are not DC blocked and would
need to be blocked if positive control voltage is required.
5. “T” pads denote a 50 Ω termination path connected to each
RFx port. If bonded to ground, it will cause the related port to
be absorptive, or matched, in the isolated condition. As described in note 4, these pads are also not DC blocked.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
A. Ball or wedge with 1.0 mil diameter pure gold
wire. Thermosonic wirebonding with a nominal
stage temperature of 150°C and a ball bonding
force of 40 to 50 grams or wedge bonding force
of 18 to 22 grams is recommended. Ultrasonic
energy and time should be adjusted to the
minimum levels achieve reliable wirebonds.
B. Wirebonds should be started on the chip and
terminated on the package.
GND bonds
should be as short as possible; at least three
and no more than four bond wires from ground
pads to package are recommended.
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.

Handling Precautions
Insertion Loss
Permanent damage to the MASW4060 may occur
if the following precautions are not adhered to:
A. Cleanliness - The MASW4060 should be
handled in a clean environment. DO NOT
attempt to clean unit after MASW4060 is
installed.
B. Static Sensitivity - All chip handling equipment
and personnel should be DC grounded.
C. Transient - Avoid instrument and power supply
transients while bias is applied to the
MASW4060. Use shielded signal and bias
cables to minimize inductive pick-up.
D. Bias - Apply voltage to either control port V1 or
V2 only when the other is grounded. No port
should be allowed to “float.”
E. General Handling - It is recommended that the
MASW4060 chip be handled along the long
side of the die with a sharp pair of bent
tweezers. DO NOT touch the surface of the
chip with fingers or tweezers.

The MASW4060 is back-metallized with Pd/Ni/Au
(100/1,000/10,000Å) metallization. It can be diemounted with AuSn eutectic performs or with thermally conductive epoxy. The package surface
should be clean and flat before attachment.
Eutectic Die Attach:
A. A 80/20 gold/tin perform is recommended with
a work surface temperature or approximately
225°C and a tool temperature of 265°C. When
hot 90/10 nitrogen/hydrogen gas is applied,
tool tip temperature should be approximately
290°C.
B. DO NOT expose the MASW4060 to a temperature greater than 320°C for more than 20 seconds. No more than 3 seconds of scrubbing
should be required for attachment.
Epoxy Die Attach:
A. Apply a minimum amount of epoxy and place
the MASW4060 into position. A thin epoxy fillet
should be visible around the perimeter of the
chip.
B. Cure epoxy per manufacturer’s recommended
schedule.
C. Electrically conductive epoxy may be used but
is not required.
