Chip Assembly and Bonding Diagram
Reflow process assembly notes:
•
AuSn (80/20) solder with limited exposure to temperatures at or above 300♣C
•
alloy station or conveyor furnace with reducing atmosphere
•
no fluxes should be utilized
•
coefficient of thermal expansion matching is critical for long-term reliability
•
storage in dry nitrogen atmosphere
Component placement and adhesive attachment assembly notes:
•
vacuum pencils and/or vacuum collets preferred method of pick up
•
avoidance of air bridges during placement
•
force impact critical during auto placement
•
organic attachment can be used in low-power applications
•
curing should be done in a convection oven; proper exhaust is a safety concern
•
microwave or radiant curing should not be used because of differential heating
•
coefficient of thermal expansion matching is critical
Interconnect process assembly notes:
•
thermosonic ball bonding is the preferred interconnect technique
•
force, time, and ultrasonics are critical parameters
•
aluminum wire should not be used
•
discrete FET devices with small pad sizes should be bonded with 0.0007-inch wire
•
maximum stage temperature: 200♣C
GaAs MMIC devices are susceptible to damage from Electrostatic Discharge. Proper precautions should
be observed during handling, assembly and test.
