Description
This device is a silicon, glass PIN diode surmount chip
fabricated with M/A-COM’s patented HMICTM process.
This device features two silicon pedestals embedded in a
low loss, low dispersion glass. The diode is formed on the
top of one pedestal and connections to the backside of the
device are facilitated by making the pedestal sidewalls
electrically conductive. Selective backside metallization is
applied producing a surface mount device. This vertical
topology provides for exceptional heat transfer. The
topside is fully encapsulated with silicon nitride and has an
additional polymer layer for scratch and impact protection.
These protective coatings prevent damage to the junction
and the anode air-bridge during handling and assembly.
Applications
These packageless devices are suitable for usage in
moderate incident power, ≤ 50dBm/C.W. or where the
peak power is ≤ 75dBm, pulse width is ≤ 1μS, and duty
cycle is ≤ 0.01%. Their low parasitic inductance, 0.4 nH,
and excellent RC constant, make these devices a superior
choice for higher frequency switch elements when
compared to their plastic package counterparts
