MAVR-011020-1411 Solderable GaAs Constant Gamma Flip-Chip Varactor Diode Features Rev. V2 Flip-Chip Design Constant Gamma for Linear Tuning Low Parasitic Capacitance High Q Silicon Nitride Passivation Polyimide Scratch Protection Surface Mount Configuration Lead Free (RoHS Compliant*) Available in Pocket Tape and Reel Can withstand 500 Temperature Cycles (-65C to +150C), mounted with Sn96.5/Pb3.5 solder without Mechanical Degradation Can be Mounted with Solder or Conductive Epoxy Front View (Circuit Side) Description Back View (Operator Side) The MAVR-011020-1411 is a gallium arsenide flip chip hyperabrupt varactor diode. This device is fabricated on OMCVD epitaxial wafers using a process designed for high device uniformity and extremely low parasitics. This diode is fully passivated with silicon nitride and has an additional layer of polyimide for scratch protection. The protective coatings prevent damage to the junction during automated or manual handling. Ordering Information1,2 The flip chip configuration is suitable for pick and place insertion.

This chip was designed to be inserted onto hard or soft substrates with the junction side down. This chip can be mounted with conductive epoxy or with solder. The following precautions should be observed to avoid damaging these chips: Solder Die Attach: This device can be mounted with Sn63/Pb37 or RoHS compliant solder. Typical reflow profiles are provided on application note M538, "Surface Mounting Instructions" which can be found @ www.macom.com Epoxy Die Attach: This device can also be attached with conductive epoxy. The assembly can be preheated to 125 - 150C. Use a minimum amount of epoxy. Cure epoxy as per manufacturer's instructions. Cleanliness The chips should be handled in a clean environment. Do not attempt to clean die after installation. Static Sensitivity Semiconductor devices are ESD sensitive and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD techniques should be used when handling these devices. General Handling The protective polymer coating on the active areas of these die provides scratch protection, particularly for the metal air bridge which contacts the anode. Die can be handled with tweezers or vacuum pickups and are suitable for use with automatic pick-and-place equipment. 2 MACOM Technology Solutions Inc.
