Specially designed collets should be used where possible. The back of the die is not metallised and the recommended mounting method is by the use of conductive epoxy. Epoxy should be applied to the attachment surface uniformly and sparingly to avoid encroachment of epoxy on to the top face of the die and ideally should not exceed half the chip height. For automated dispense Ablestick LMISR4 is recommended and for manual dispense Ablestick 84-1 LMI or 84-1 LMIT are recommended. These should be cured at a temperature of 150°C for 1 hour in an oven especially set aside for epoxy curing only. If possible the curing oven should be flushed with dry nitrogen. This part has gold (Au) bond pads requiring the use of gold (99.99% pure) bondwire. It is recommended that 25.4µm diameter gold wire is used. Thermosonic ball bonding is preferred. A nominal stage temperature of 150°C and a bonding force of 40g has been shown to give effective results for 25µm wire. Ultrasonic energy shall be kept to a minimum. For this bonding technique, stage temperature should not be raised above 200°C and bond force should not be raised above 60g. Thermosonic wedge bonding and thermocompression wedge bonding can also be used to achieve good wire bonds. Bonds should be made from the die first and then to the mounting substrate or package. The physical length of the bondwires should be minimised especially when making RF or ground connections. Handling Precautions: To avoid damage to the devices care should be exercised during handling. Proper Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions should be observed at all stages of storage, handling, assembly, and testing. These devices should be treated as Class 1A (0-500 V) as defined in JEDEC Standard No. 22-A114-B. Further information on ESD control measures can be found in MIL-STD-1686 and MILHDBK-263. Disclaimers: This product is not designed for use in any space based or life sustaining/supporting equipment. 4 Preliminary specifications subject to change without notice Filtronic Compound Semiconductors Ltd Contact Details (UK): Tel: +44 (0) 1325 301111 Fax: +44 (0) 1325 306177 Email: [email protected] Contact Details (USA): Tel: +1 (408) 850 5790 Fax: +1 (408) 850 5766 Email: [email protected] Website: www.filcs.com
