V4 Mounting Side with Solder Bumps Low Series Resistance Ultra Low Capacitance Millimeter Wave Switching & Cutoff Frequency 2 Nanosecond Switching Speed Can be Driven by a Buffered TTL Silicon Nitride Passivation Polyimide Scratch Protection RoHS Compliant Solderable Bump Die Attach Description M/A-COM's MA4AGSBP907 is an aluminum gallium arsenide flip-chip PIN diode with solder bumps. These devices are fabricated on OMCVD epitaxial wafers using a process designed for high device uniformity and extremely low parasitics. The diodes exhibit an extremely low RC product, 0.1ps and 2nS switching characteristics. The useable frequency range is 100MHz to 40GHz. They are fully passivated with silicon nitride and have an additional layer of a polymer for scratch protection. The protective coating prevents damage to the junction and the anode airbridge during handling and circuit attachment. Applications The 25fF capacitance of the MA4AGSBP907 allows usage through millimeter frequencies for RF switches and switched phase shifter applications. This diode is designed for use in pulsed or CW applications, where single digit nanosecond switching speed is required. For surface mount assembly, the low capacitance of the MA4AGSBP907 makes it ideal for use in microwave multi-throw switch assemblies, where the series capacitance of each “off” port adversely loads the input and affects VSWR.

MA4AGSBP907 AlGaAs Solder Bump Flip-Chip PIN Diode RoHS Compliant Rev. V4 Device Installation Guidelines The following guidelines should be observed to avoid damaging the AlGaAs flip-chips. Cleanliness These devices should be handled in a clean environment. Static Sensitivity Aluminum gallium arsenide PIN diodes are ESD sensitive and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD techniques should be used when handling these devices. These devices are rated Class 0, (0-199V) per HBM MIL-STD-883, method 3015.7 [C = 100pF±10%, R = 1.5kW±1%]. Even though tested die pass 50V ESD, they must be handled in a static-free environment. General Handling These devices have a polymer layer which provides scratch protection for the junction area and the anode air bridge. Die can be handled with plastic tweezers or picked and placed automatically with a #27 tip vacuum pencil. Assembly Requirements using Tin / Lead Solder The flip chip diode employs a 6μm thick, Sn/Pb, 63/37 solderable interface as part of the 50µm high solder bump. These chips are designed to be soldered onto hard or soft substrates with the junction side down. They should be mounted onto silkscreened circuits using 63/37 Sn/Pb solder paste. A typical profile for a Sn/Pb 63/37 soldering process is provided in on the M/A-COM website at this address: http://www.macom.com/ Application%20Notes/pdf/M538.pdf.
