Description and Applications
This device is a Silicon-Glass PIN diode chip fabricated
with M/A-COM’s patented HMICTM process. This
device features two silicon pedestals embedded in a
low loss, low dispersion glass. The diode is formed
on the top of one pedestal and connections to the
backside of the device are facilitated by making the
pedestal sidewalls electrically conductive. Selective
backside metallization is applied producing a surface
mount device. This Vertical Topology provides for
Exceptional Heat Transfer. The topside is fully
encapsulated with silicon nitride and has an
additional polymer layer for scratch and impact
protection. These protective coatings prevent
damage to the junction and the anode air-bridge
during handling and assembly.
1. Operation of this device above any one of these parameters
may cause permanent damage.
Case Style ODS-1294
(MA4SPS421)
These packageless devices are suitable for usage in
Moderate Incident Power ( 10 W C.W. ) or Higher
Incident Peak Power ( 500 W ) Series, Shunt, or
Series-Shunt Switches. Smaller Parasitic
Inductance, 0.1to 0.2 nH, and Excellent RC
Constant ( 0.45 pS ), make the devices ideal for
Higher Frequency Switch Elements compared to
their Plastic Device Counterparts.

Handling
All semiconductor chips should be handled with care to avoid damage or contamination from perspiration and skin
oils. The use of plastic tipped tweezers or vacuum pickups is strongly recommended for individual components. Bulk
handling should insure that abrasion and mechanical shock are minimized.
Bonding
Attachment to a circuit board is made simple through the use of surface mount technology. Mounting pads are
conveniently located on the bottom surface of these devices and are removed from the active junction locations.
These devices are well suited for solder attachment onto hard and soft substrates. The use of 80 Au / 20 Sn or
Sn 60 / Pb 40 solder is recommended. Conductive silver epoxy for die attachment may also be used for lower incident
power (<1 W average incident power) applications.
When soldering these devices to a hard substrate, hot gas die bonding is preferred. We re-commend utilizing a
vacuum tip and force of 60 to100 grams applied normal to the top surface of the device. When soldering to soft
substrates, it is recommended to use a lead-tin interface at the circuit board mounting pads. Position the die so that
its mounting pads are aligned with the circuit board mounting pads and reflow the solder by heating the circuit trace
near the mounting pad while applying 60 to 100 grams of force perpendicular to the top surface of the die. The solder
joint must Not be made one at a time, creating un-equal heat flow and thermal stress. Solder reflow should Not be
performed by causing heat to flow through the top surface of the die. Since the HMIC glass is transparent, the edges
of the mounting pads closest to each other can be visually inspected through the die after attach is completed.
A typical profile for a Sn 60/ Pb 40 Soldering process is provided in Application Note, “ M538 ” , “ Surface Mounting
Instructions “ on the MA-COM website www.macom.com.
