Description
A PIN diode series-shunt switch element with a unique
integrated thermal terminal for dissipating heat in the
series diode created by the DC and RF input power.
The thermal terminal allows for optimum heat dissipa-
tion by providing a direct thermal connection between
the series diode and the circuit heatsink while also
being electrically isolated. The chip is designed to pro-
vide a heat transfer conduit that does not interfere with
the PIN diode anode (input) and cathode (output) elec-
trical terminals, especially with respect to RF
per-
formance. The chip is fabricated using M/A-COM
Technology Solutions patented HMIC™ process and
features silicon
pedestals embedded in a low loss,
low dispersion glass for low leakage current. The top-
side is fully encapsulated with silicon nitride and has
an additional polymer layer to protect against damage
during handling and assembly
.

Applications
This PIN diode series-shunt switch element is
particularly advantageous in high average power,
50W, switch applications from 30MHZ – 3GHz. The
backside RF, D.C., and thermal I/O ports allow for
direct solder re-flow, surface mount, attachment to a
micro-strip circuit assembly. The thermal terminal
design provides the, power dissipating, series diode a
direct connection to the circuit thermal ground for
unprecedented heat transfer. The thermal terminal
port is electrically isolated from the I/O ports and can
be configured as either a reflective or an absorptive
switch.

Note:
The bias circuits provided in the schematic above assumes current sources are available. If only voltage
sources are available, a resistor will need to be added to the RF Input (J1) Bias Return Network. When using a
D.C. voltage of 25V, a 500Ω resistor must be used to draw 50mA of current into the switch.
