DESCRIPTION
M/A-COM's MA4AGSW8-1 is an Aluminum-GalliumArsenide, single pole, eight throw (SP8T), PIN diode switch. The switch features enhanced AlGaAs anodes which are formed using M/A-COM's patented heterojunction technology. AlGaAs technology produces a switch with less loss than a device fabricated using conventional GaAs processes. As much as a 0.3 dB reduction in insertion loss can be realized at 50 GHz. This device is fabricated on an OMCVD epitaxial wafer using a process designed for high device uniformity and extremely low parasitics. The diodes within the chip exhibit low series resistance, low capacitance, and fast switching speed. They are fully passivated with silicon nitride and have an additional polymer layer for scratch protection. The protective coating prevents damage during handling and assembly to the diode junction and the chip anode air-bridges. Off chip bias circuitry is required.

APPLICATIONS
The high electron mobility of AlGaAs and the low capacitance of the PIN diodes used makes this switch ideal for fast response, high frequency, multi-throw switch designs. AlGaAs PIN diode switches are an ideal choice for switching arrays in radar systems, radiometers, test equipment and other multi-assembly components.
Maximum combined operating conditions for RF Power, D.C. bias, and temperature: +23 dBm C.W. @ 10 mA (per diode) @ +85C.

Operation of the MA4AGSW8-1 Switch
The application of either a +15 mA or -15 mA DC bias current to the selected output port will provide the low insertion loss state. Typically this low loss, "ON" bias voltage through (3) series diodes is 4.5 Volts maximum. All isolated ports are set to 0V at 0 mA, or, to improve switching speed and isolation, a back bias of 5V/0 mA may also be applied. RF to DC bias networks are required on all RF ports. To switch the individual RF ports on and off, a simple single +5V, PIN diode supply, with a TTL gate driver can be used to supply current for the low loss state or 0 V back bias for isolation . In this bias scheme, +5V through a current limiting resistor would be applied at the common port, J1 and each RF port would be connected to a TTL gate. Low loss would occur when the selected gate voltage, TTL0, at the output port is 5V/+15 mA and isolation would occur when the selected gate voltage,TTL1, is -5V/0mA. For faster switching speeds,< 20 nS, a 5V ,PIN diode TTL driver should be employed to help remove the diode stored charge with back bias. Rev. V2

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANLINESS
The chip should be handled in a clean environment. Rev. V2
STATIC SENSITIVITY
This device is considered ESD Class 1A, HBM. Proper ESD techniques should be used during handling.
GENERAL HANDLING
The protective polymer coating on the active areas of the die provides scratch and impact protection, particularly for the metal air bridge, which contacts the diode's anode. Die should primarily be handled with vacuum pickup tools, or alternatively with plastic tweezers.
ASSEMBLY TECHNIQUES
The MA4AGSW8-1, AlGaAs switch is designed to be mounted with electrically conductive silver epoxy or with a low temperature solder perform, which does not have a rich tin content.
SOLDER DIE ATTACH
Only solders which do not scavenge gold, such as 80Au/20Sn or Indalloy #2 is recommended. Do not expose die to temperatures greater than 300C for more than 10 seconds.
CONDUCTIVE EPOXY DIE ATTACH
Use a controlled thickness of approximately 2 mils for best electrical conductivity and lowest thermal resistance. Cure epoxy per manufacturer's schedule. Typically 150C for 1 hour.
RIBBON/WIRE BONDING
Thermo-compression wedge or ball bonding may be used to attach ribbons or wire to the gold bonding pads. A 1/4 x 3 mil gold ribbon is recommended on all RF ports and should be kept as short as possible for the lowest inductance and best microwave performance. For more detailed handling and assembly
instructions, see Application Note M541, "Bonding and Handling Procedures for Chip Diode Devices" at www.macom.com.
