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

devices.

8. Exceeding any one or a combination of these limits may cause

permanent damage to this device.

9. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these

survivability limits.

Typical thermal resistance (Өjc) = 44° C/W.

4. Data corresponds to the typical application circuit shown on page 3 of this datasheet. See pages 4 and 5 for typical performance using

this application circuit.
