DESCRIPTION
The MASW-005100-1194 is a SP5T Series-Shunt broad
band switch made with M/A-COM’s HMICTM
(Heterolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) process, US
Patent 5,268,310. This process allows the incorporation
of silicon pedestals that form series and shunt diodes or
vias by imbedding them in a low loss, low dispersion
glass. This hybrid combination of Silicon and Glass
gives HMIC Switches exceptional low loss and
remarkable high isolation through low millimeter-wave
frequencies.
APPLICATIONS
These high performance switches are suitable for the
use in multi-band ECM, Radar, and instrumentation
control circuits where high isolation to insertion loss
ratios are required. With a standard +5 V/-5 V, TTL
controlled PIN diode driver, 50ns switching speeds are
achieved.

Note:
1.) Typical switching speed is measured from 10% to 90% of the detected RF voltage driven by a
TTL compatible driver. Driver output parallel RC network uses a capacitor between 390pF - 560pF
and a resistor between 150Ω - 220Ω to achieve 50ns rise and fall times.

Operation of the MASW-005100-1194 Switch
The simultaneous application of negative DC current to the Low Loss Port and positive DC current to the
remaining Isolated Ports as shown in Figure 1 achieves operation of the MASW-005100-1194 diode
switch. The backside area of the die is the RF and DC return ground plane. The DC return is achieved on
common Port J1. Constant current sources should supply the DC control currents. The voltages at these
points will not exceed ±1.5 volts (1.2 volts typical) for supply currents up to ± 20 mA. In the Low Loss
state, the Series Diode must be forward biased and the Shunt Diode reverse biased. For all the isolated
ports, the Shunt Diode is forward biased and the Series Diode is reverse
biased. The bias network
design should yield >30 dB RF to DC isolation. Best Insertion Loss, P1dB, IP3, and switching speed
are achieved by using a voltage pull-up resistor in the DC return path, ( J1 ). A minimum value of
| -2V | is recommended at this return node, which is achievable with a standard , 65V TTL controlled
PIN diode driver. A typical DC bias schematic for 2-18 GHz operation is shown in Figure 1.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Cleanliness
These chips should be handled in a clean environment free of organic contamination.
Electro-Static Sensitivity
The MASW-00 Series PIN switches are ESD, Class 1A sensitive (HBM). The proper ESD handling
procedures must be used.
Wire Bonding
Thermosonic wedge wire bonding using 0.003” x 0.00025” ribbon or 0.001” diameter gold wire is
recommended. A stage temperature of 150°C and a force of 18 to 22 grams should be used.
Ultrasonic energy should be adjusted to the minimum required. RF ribbon and wire bonds should
be kept as short as possible to minimize parasitic inductance.
Mounting
These chips have Ti-Pt-Au back metal. They can be die mounted with a 80Au/20Sn or electrically
conductive Ag epoxy. Mounting surface must be flat and clean of oils and contaminants.
Eu Eutectic Die Attachment
An 80/20 gold-tin eutectic solder preform is recommended with a work surface temperature of
255°C and a tool tip temperature of 265°C. When hot gas is applied, the tool tip temperature
should be 290°C. The chip should not be exposed to temperatures greater than 320°C for more
than 10 seconds. No more than 3 seconds should be required for the die attachment.
Silver Epoxy Die Attachment
Assembly should be preheated to 125°C-150°C. A Controlled thickness of 2 mils is recommended
for best electrical and thermal conductivity. A thin epoxy fillet should be visible around the perimeter
of the chip after placement to ensure complete coverage. Cure epoxy per manufacturer’s
recommended schedule.
