3.3 Absolute Maximum Ratings 1/
Control Voltage Range ........................................................ VEE - 0.5 VDC
Bias Voltage (VEE) ........................................................................ -7 VDC
Channel Temperature ....................................................................... 150C
RF Input Power (0.5 to 13 GHz) .................................................. +25 dBm
Thermal Resistance (Junction to Die Bottom) ............................. 330C /W
Ambient Operating Temperature Range (TA)..................... -40C to +85C
Storage Temperature ........................................................ -65C to +150C
Absolute Maximum Ratings Notes:
1/ Stresses above the absolute maximum rating may cause permanent damage to the device. Extended operation at the maximum
levels may degrade performance and affect reliability.
4.0 Die
Qualification
In accordance with class-K version of MIL-PRF-38534, Appendix C, Table C-II, except as modified
Herein.
(a) Pre-screen test post assembly required prior to die qualification, to remove all assembly related
rejects.
(b) Mechanical Shock or Constant Acceleration not performed; die qualification is performed in an
open carrier.
(c) Interim and post burn-in electrical tests will include static tests screened at +25C only.
