NE76184A
GENERAL PURPOSE FET N-CHANNEL GaAs MES FET
DESCRIPTION
NE76184A is a N-channel GaAs MES FET housed in ceramic package. The device is fabricated by ion implantation for
improved RF and DC performance reliability and uniformity. Its
excellent low noise and high associated gain make it suitable
for DBS, TVRO, GPS and another commercial systems.

RECOMMENDED SOLDERING CONDITIONS
The following conditions (see table below) must be met when soldering this product.
Please consult with our sales offices in case other soldering process is used, or in case soldering is done
under different conditions.
<TYPES OF SURFACE MOUNT DEVICE>
For more details, refer to our document “SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE MOUNTING TECHNOLOGY MANUAL”
(IEI-1207).
Soldering
process
Soldering conditions
Symbol
Infrared ray reflow
Peak package’s surface temperature: 230 ˚C or below,
Reflow time: 30 seconds or below (210 ˚C or higher),
Number of reflow process: 1, Exposure limit*: None
IR30-00
Partial heating method
Terminal temperature: 230 ˚C or below,
Flow time: 10 seconds or below,
Exposure limit*: None
* Exposure limit before soldering after dry-pack package is opened.
Storage conditions: 25 ˚C and relative humidity at 65 % or less.
Note Do not apply more than a single process at once, except for “Partial heating method”.
PRECAUTION Avoid high static voltage and electric fields, because this device is MES FET with GaAs shottky
barrier gate.
Caution
The Great Care must be taken in dealing with the devices in this guide.
The reason is that the material of the devices is GaAs (Gallium Arsenide), which is
designated as harmful substance according to the Japanese law concerned.
Keep the Japanese law concerned and so on, especially in case of removal.

document.
NEC Corporation does not assume any liability for infringement of patents, copyrights or other intellectual
property rights of third parties by or arising from use of a device described herein or any other liability arising
from use of such device. No license, either express, implied or otherwise, is granted under any patents,
copyrights or other intellectual property rights of NEC Corporation or others.
While NEC Corporation has been making continuous effort to enhance the reliability of its semiconductor devices,
the possibility of defects cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize risks of damage or injury to persons or
property arising from a defect in an NEC semiconductor device, customer must incorporate sufficient safety
measures in its design, such as redundancy, fire-containment, and anti-failure features.
NEC devices are classified into the following three quality grades:
“Standard“, “Special“, and “Specific“. The Specific quality grade applies only to devices developed based on
a customer designated “quality assurance program“ for a specific application. The recommended applications
of a device depend on its quality grade, as indicated below. Customers must check the quality grade of each
device before using it in a particular application.
Standard: Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment,
audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic
equipment and industrial robots
Special: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster
systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed
for life support)
Specific: Aircrafts, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life
support systems or medical equipment for life support, etc.
The quality grade of NEC devices in “Standard“ unless otherwise specified in NEC's Data Sheets or Data Books.
If customers intend to use NEC devices for applications other than those specified for Standard quality grade,
they should contact NEC Sales Representative in advance.
Anti-radioactive design is not implemented in this product.
