GaAs HEMT MMIC MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIER, 71 - 76 GHz Mounting & Bonding Techniques for Millimeterwave GaAs MMICs
The die should be attached directly to the ground plane eutectical y or with 0.05mm (0.002”) Thick GaAs MMIC conductive epoxy (see HMC general Handling, Mounting, Bonding Note). 50 Ohm Microstrip transmission lines on 0.127 mm (5 mil) thick alumina Ribbon Bond thin film substrates are recommended for bringing RF to and from the chip 0.076mm (0.003”) (Figure 1). 3 Microstrip substrates should be placed as close to the die as possible in order to minimize bond wire length. Typical die-to-substrate spacing is 0.076 mm to 0.152 mm (3 to 6 mils). RF Ground Plane IP
Handling Precautions
H Follow these precautions to avoid permanent damage. 0.127mm (0.005”) Thick Alumina
Storage:
All bare die are placed in either Waffle or Gel based ESD pro- Thin Film Substrate tective containers, and then sealed in an ESD protective bag for shipment. Figure 1. R - C Once the sealed ESD protective bag has been opened, all die should be stored in a dry nitrogen environment. E
Cleanliness:
Handle the chips in a clean environment. DO NOT attempt to clean the chip using liquid cleaning sys- W tems. O
Static Sensitivity:
Fol ow ESD precautions to protect against ESD strikes.
Transients:
Suppress instrument and bias supply transients while bias is applied. Use shielded signal and bias cables to minimize inductive pick-up. R & P
General Handling:
Handle the chip along the edges with a vacuum col et or with a sharp pair of bent tweezers. The A surface of the chip may have fragile air bridges and should not be touched with vacuum col et, tweezers, or fingers. E
Mounting
The chip is back-metal ized and can be die mounted with AuSn eutectic preforms or with electrical y conductive epoxy. IN The mounting surface should be clean and flat. Eutectic Die Attach: A 80/20 gold tin preform is recommended with a work surface temperature of 255 °C and a tool temperature of 265 °C. When hot 90/10 nitrogen/hydrogen gas is applied, tool tip temperature should be 290 °C. DO S - L NOT expose the chip to a temperature greater than 320 °C for more than 20 seconds. No more than 3 seconds of R scrubbing should be required for attachment. IE Epoxy Die Attach: Apply a minimum amount of epoxy to the mounting surface so that a thin epoxy fil et is observed around the perimeter of the chip once it is placed into position. Cure epoxy per the manufacturer’s schedule. LIF
Wire Bonding
P M RF bonds made with 0.003” x 0.0005” ribbon are recommended. These bonds should be thermosonical y bonded with a force of 40-60 grams. DC bonds of 0.001” (0.025 mm) diameter, thermosonical y bonded, are recommended. Ball A bonds should be made with a force of 40-50 grams and wedge bonds at 18-22 grams. All bonds should be made with a nominal stage temperature of 150 °C. A minimum amount of ultrasonic energy should be applied to achieve reliable bonds. All bonds should be as short as possible, less than 12 mils (0.31 mm).
