1.8 pF Passive Tunable
Integrated Circuits (PTIC)
Introduction
ON Semiconductor’s PTICs have excellent RF performance and
power consumption, making them suitable for any mobile handset or
radio application. The fundamental building block of our PTIC
product line is a tunable material called ParaScant, based on Barium
Strontium Titanate (BST). PTICs have the ability to change their
capacitance from a supplied bias voltage generated by the Control IC.
The 1.8 pF ultra−high tuning PTICs are available as wafer−level chip
scale packages (WLCSP).
Key Features
•Ultra−High Tuning Range(5:1) and Operation up to 24 V
•Usable Frequency Range: from 700 MHz to 2.7 GHz
•High Quality Factor (Q) for Low Loss
•High Power Handling Capability
•Compatible with PTIC Control ICs from ON Semiconductor
•These devices are Pb−Free and RoHS Compliant
Typical Applications
•Multi−band, Multi−standard, Advanced and Simple Mobile Phones
•Tunable Antenna Matching Networks
•Tunable RF Filters
•Active Antennas

ASSEMBLY CONSIDERATIONS AND REFLOW PROFILE
The following assembly considerations should be observed:
Cleanliness
These chips should be handled in a clean environment.
Electro−static Sensitivity
ON Semiconductor’s PTICs are ESD Class 1B sensitive.
The proper ESD handling procedures should be used.
Mounting
The WLCSP PTIC is fabricated for Flip Chip solder
mounting. Connectivity to the RF and Bias terminations on
the PTIC die is established through SAC305 solder balls
with 90 mm nominal height (65 mm to 115 mm height
variation). The PTIC die is RoHS−compliant and
compatible with lead−free soldering profile.
Molding
The PTIC die is compatible for over−molding or
under−fill. Figure 6. Reflow Profile
ORIENTATION OF THE PTIC FOR OPTIMUM LOSSES
When configuring the PTIC in your specific circuit
design, at least one of the RF terminals must be connected
to DC ground. If minimum transition times are required, DC
ground on both RF terminals is recommended. To minimize
losses, the PTIC should be oriented such that RF2 is at the
lower RF impedance of the two RF nodes. A shunt PTIC, for
example, should have RF2 connected to RF ground.
