MICROWAVE CORPORATION v01.0301 HMC260 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 14 - 26 GHz Typical Applications The HMC260 is ideal for: * Point to Point Radios * Point to Multi Point Radios Features Passive: No DC Bias Required Input IP3: +20 dBm LO/RF Isolation: 39 dB Small Size: 0.55mm2 Functional Diagram General Description The HMC260 is a passive double balanced mixer that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 14 and 26 GHz. The miniature monolithic mixer (MMIC) requires no external components or matching circuitry. The HMC260 provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels above +9 dBm. Measurements were made with the chip mounted and bonded into in a 50 ohm test fixture. Data includes the parasitic effects of wire bond assembly. Connections were made with a 3 mil ribbon bond with minimal length (<12 mil). 5 MIXERS - CHIP Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 C LO = +13 dBm, IF = 1 GHz Parameter Min.

If 0.254mm (10 mil) thick alumina thin film substrates must be used, the die should be raised 0.150mm (6 mils) so that the surface of the die is coplanar with the surface of the substrate. One way to accomplish this is to attach the 0.102mm (4 mil) thick die to a 0.150mm (6 mil) thick molybdenum heat spreader (moly-tab) which is then attached to the ground plane (Figure 2). Microstrip substrates should be brought as close to the die as possible in order to minimize ribbon bond length. Typical die-to-substrate spacing is 0.076mm (3 mils). Gold ribbon of 0.075 mm (3 mil) width and minimal length <0.31 mm (<12 mils) is recommended to minimize inductance on RF, LO & IF ports. 5 - 48 For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 12 Elizabeth Drive, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order Online at www.hittite.com MICROWAVE CORPORATION v01.0301 HMC260 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 14 - 26 GHz GaAs MMIC SUB-HARMONICALLY PUMPED MIXER 17 - 25 GHz Handling Precautions Follow these precautions to avoid permanent damage. Cleanliness: Handle the chips in a clean environment. DO NOT attempt to clean the chip using liquid cleaning systems. Static Sensitivity: Follow ESD precautions to protect against > 250V ESD strikes. Transients: Suppress instrument and bias supply transients while bias is applied. Use shielded signal and bias cables to minimize inductive pick-up. General Handling: Handle the chip along the edges with a vacuum collet or with a sharp pair of bent tweezers. The surface of the chip has fragile air bridges and should not be touched with vacuum collet, tweezers, or fingers. Mounting The chip is back-metallized and can be die mounted with AuSn eutectic preforms or with electrically conductive epoxy. 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 NOT expose the chip to a temperature greater than 320 C for more than 20 seconds. No more than 3 seconds of scrubbing should be required for attachment. Epoxy Die Attach: Apply a minimum amount of epoxy to the mounting surface so that a thin epoxy fillet is observed around the perimeter of the chip once it is placed into position. Cure epoxy per the manufacturer's schedule. 5 MIXERS - CHIP 5 - 49 Wire Bonding RF bonds made with 0.003" x 0.0005" ribbon are recommended. These bonds should be thermosonically bonded with a force of 4060 grams. DC bonds of 0.001" (0.025 mm) diameter, thermosonically bonded, are recommended. Ball 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).
