Die Attach and Bonding Procedures

Die Attach: Eutectic die attach is recommended. For eutec-

tic die attach: Preform: AuSn (80% Au, 20% Sn); Stage

Temperature: 290°C, ±5°C; Handling Tool: Tweezers; Time: 1

min or less.

Wire Bonding: Wire Size: 0.7 to 1.0 mil in diameter (pre-

stressed); Thermocompression bonding is preferred over

thermosonic bonding.

For thermocompression bonding:

Stage Temperature: 250°C; Bond Tip Temperature: 150°C;

Bonding Tip Pressure: 18 to 40 gms depending on size of

wire.

Chip Diagram

Notes: 1. Operation outside these limits can cause permanent damage.

2. Calculation maximum operating temperature:

Tmax = 175–(Pdis [W] x 15.7) [°C].

Units: mm

Notes: 1. Tested on Celeritek Connectorized evaluation board (standard assembly condition detailed on page 4).

2. Stability factor measured on-wafer.
