Limits 80% Total Power Dissipation -3V < VGS < -0.5V 10V 4 Simultaneous Combination of Limits Notes: 1 TAmbient = 22°C unless otherwise noted; exceeding any one of these absolute maximum ratings may cause permanent damage to the device 2 Total Power Dissipation defined as: PTOT ≡ (PDC + PIN) – POUT, where PDC: DC Bias Power, PIN: RF Input Power, POUT: RF Output Power 3 Total Power Dissipation to be de-rated as follows above 22°C: PTOT= 1.2 - (0.008W/°C) x THS where THS= heatsink or ambient temperature above 22°C Example: For a 85°C carrier temperature: PTOT = 1.2 - (0.008 x (85 – 22)) = 0.69W 4 Users should avoid exceeding 80% of 2 or more Limits simultaneously 5 Thermal Resistivity specification assumes a Au/Sn eutectic die attach onto a Au-plated copper heatsink or rib. 6 Operating at absolute maximum VD continuously is not recommended. If operation at 10V is considered then IDS must be reduced in order to keep the part within it's thermal power dissipation limits. Therefore VGS is restricted to < -0.5V.

Specially designed collets should be used where possible. PART NUMBER DESCRIPTION FPD6836 Die The recommended die attach is gold/tin eutectic solder under a nitrogen atmosphere. Stage temperature should be 280-290°C; maximum time at temperature is one minute. The recommended wire bond method is thermo-compression wedge bonding with 0.7 or 1.0 mil (0.018 or 0.025 mm) gold wire. Stage temperature should be 250-260°C. 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 0 (0-250 V) as defined in JEDEC Standard No. 22-A114. Further information on ESD control measures can be found in MIL-STD-1686 and MILHDBK-263. APPLICATION NOTES & DESIGN DATA: Application Notes and design data including Sparameters, noise parameters and device model are available on request. DISCLAIMERS: This product is not designed for use in any space based or life sustaining/supporting equipment. 3 Tel: +44 (0) 1325 301111 Specifications subject to change without notice Filtronic Compound Semiconductors Ltd Fax: +44 (0) 1325 306177 Email: [email protected] Website: www.filtronic.com
