DESCRIPTION
The TC1606 is a GaAs Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistor (PHEMT) which has high linearity and
high Power Added Efficiency. The device is processed with a propriety via-hole process, which provides low
thermal resistance and low inductance. The long gate length makes the device to have high breakdown voltage.
All devices are 100% DC tested to assure consistent quality.
Bond pads are gold plated for either
thermo-compression or thermo-sonic wire bonding. Backside gold plating is compatible with standard AuSn
die-attach. Typical application include commercial and military high performance power amplifiers

CHIP HANDLING
DIE ATTACHMENT: Conductive epoxy or eutectic die attach is recommended. Eutectic die attach can be
accomplished with Au-Sn (80%Au-20%Sn) perform at stage temperature: 290°C ± 5°C; Handling Tool: Tweezers;
Time: less than 1min.
WIRE BONDING: The recommended wire bond method is thermocompression bonding with 0.7 to 1.0 mil
(0.018 to 0.025 mm) gold wire. Stage temperature: 220°C to 250°C; Bond Tip Temperature: 150°C; Bond Force:
20 to 30 gms depending on size of wire and Bond Tip Temperature.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS: The user must operate in a clean, dry environment. Care should be exercised
during handling avoid damage to the devices. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions should be observed at all
stages of storage, handling, assembly, and testing. The static discharge must be less than 300V.
