Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
class 1C devices.
5. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
6. M/A-COM Technology Solutions does not recommend
sustained operation near these survivability limits.
7. Operating at nominal conditions with T
J
≤
+150°C will ensure
MTTF > 1 x 10
6
hours.
8. Junction Temperature (T
