ESD Sensitivity (HBM): Class 1A
General Description
The HMC913 is a Successive Detection Log Video
Amplifier (SDLVA) which operates from 0.6 to 20 GHz.
The HMC913 provides a logging range of 59 dB. This
device offers typical fast rise/fall times of 5/10 ns and
a superior delay time of only 14 ns. The HMC913 log
video output slope is typically 14 mV/dB. Maximum
recovery times are less than 30 ns. Ideal for high
speed channelized receiver applications, the HMC913
operates from a single +3.3 V supply, and consumes
only 80 mA. All data shown herein is measured with
the chip in a 50 Ohm environment and contacted with
RF probes.

Mounting & Bonding Techniques for MMICs
The die should be attached directly to the ground plane with epoxy (see HMC general Handling, Mounting , Bonding Note).
50 Ohm Microstrip transmission lines on 0.254mm (10 mil) thick alumina thin film
substrates are recommended for bringing RF to and from the chip (Figure 1).
Microstrip substrates should be placed as close to the die as possible in order to
minimize bond wire length. Typical die-to-substrate spacing is 0.076mm to 0.152
mm (3 to 6 mils).

Handling Precautions
RF Ground Plane
Follow these precautions to avoid permanent damage.
Storage: All bare die are placed in either Waffle or Gel based ESD protective containers, and then sealed in an ESD protective bag for shipment. Once the sealed
ESD protective bag has been opened, all die should be stored in a dry nitrogen
environment.
0.254mm (0.010”) Thick Alumina
Thin Film Substrate
Figure 1.
Cleanliness: Handle the chips in a clean environment. DO NOT attempt to clean
the chip using liquid cleaning systems.
Static Sensitivity: Follow ESD precautions to protect against ESD strikes.
Transients: Suppress instrument and bias supply transients while bias is applied. Use shielded signal and bias cables to minimize
inductive pick-up.
General Handling: The chip may be handled by a vacuum collet or with a sharp pair of tweezers.
Mounting
Epoxy Die Attach: Apply a minimum amount of epoxy to the mounting surface so that a thin epoxy fillet is observed around the
perimeter of the chip once it is placed into position. Cure epoxy per the manufacturer’s schedule.
