3.6.4 Typical Spurious Performance: Down-Conversion
Typical spurious data is provided by selecting RF and LO frequencies (± m*LO ± n*RF) within the RF/LO bands, to create a spurious output within the IF band. The mixer is swept across the full spurious band and the mean is calculated. The numbers shown in the table below are for a -10 dBm RF input. Spurious suppression is scaled for different RF power levels by (n-1), where “n” is the RF spur order. For example, the 2RF x 2LO spur is 67 dBc for a -10 dBm input, so a -20 dBm RF input creates a spur that is (2-1) x (-10 dB) lower, or 77 dBc. Typical Down-conversion spurious suppression (dBc): Config A (B) -10 dBm RF Input 0xLO 1xLO 2xLO 3xLO 4xLO 5xLO 1xRF 40 (25) Reference 40 (35) 21 (16) 45 (35) N/A 2xRF 86 (93) 50 (66) 67 (74) 61 (69) 68 (72) 64 (73) 3xRF 98 (90) 58 (61) 84 (84) 66 (74) 86 (85) 63 (69) 4xRF 124 (122) 89 (111) 102 (110) 98 (115) 111 (119) 101 (114) 5xRF N/A 117 (130) 124 (118) 107 (120) 124 (127) 109 (121)
3.6.5 Typical Spurious Performance: Up-Conversion
Typical spurious data is taken by mixing an input within the IF band, with LO frequencies (± m*LO ± n*IF), to create a spurious output within the RF output band. The mixer is swept across the full spurious output band and the mean is calculated. The numbers shown in the table below are for a -10 dBm IF input. Spurious suppression is scaled for different IF input power levels by (n-1), where “n” is the IF spur order. For example, the 2IFx1LO spur is typically 79 dBc for a - 10 dBm input with a sine-wave LO, so a -20 dBm IF input creates a spur that is (2-1) x (-10 dB) lower, or 89 dBc. Typical Up-conversion spurious suppression (dBc): Config A (B) -10 dBm RF Input 0xLO 1xLO 2xLO 3xLO 4xLO 5xLO 1xIF 40 (25) Reference 40 (34) 17 (14) 42 (34) N/A 2xIF 70 (70) 79 (79) 68 (71) 74 (76) 57 (67) 77 (74) 3xIF 89 (80) 61 (69) 82 (79) 65 (64) 77 (72) 54 (58) 4xIF 109 (111) 106 (109) 106 (108) 105 (104) 89 (99) 102 (105) 5xIF 121 (119) 105 (110) 120 (121) 103 (107) 114 (112) 98 (104)

4.1 Mounting and Bonding Recommendations
Marki MMICs should be attached directly to a ground plane with conductive epoxy. The ground plane electrical impedance should be as low as practically possible. This will prevent resonances and permit the best possible electrical performance. Datasheet performance is only guaranteed in an environment with a low electrical impedance ground. Mounting - To epoxy the chip, apply a minimum amount of conductive epoxy to the mounting surface so that a thin epoxy fillet is observed around the perimeter of the chip. Cure epoxy according to manufacturer instructions. Wire Bonding - Ball or wedge bond with 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter pure gold wire. Thermosonic wirebonding with a nominal stage temperature of 150 °C and a ball bonding force of 40 to 50 grams or wedge bonding force of 18 to 22 grams is recommended. Use the minimum level of ultrasonic energy to achieve reliable wirebonds. Wirebonds should be started on the chip and terminated on the package or substrate. All bonds should be as short as possible <0.31 mm (12 mils). Circuit Considerations – 50 Ω transmission lines should be used for all high frequency connections in and out of the chip. Wirebonds should be kept as short as possible, with multiple wirebonds recommended for higher frequency connections to reduce parasitic inductance. In circumstances where the chip more than .001” thinner than the substrate, a heat spreading spacer tab is optional to further reduce bondwire length and parasitic inductance.
4.2 Handling Precautions
Chips should be handled with care using tweezers or a vacuum collet. Users should take precautions to protect chips from direct human contact that can deposit contaminants, like perspiration and skin oils on any of the chip's surfaces. Static Sensitivity GaAs MMIC devices are sensitive to ESD and should be handled, assembled, tested, and transported only in static protected environments. Cleaning and Storage: Do not attempt to clean the chip with a liquid cleaning system or expose the bare chips to liquid. Once the ESD sensitive bags the chips are stored in are opened, chips should be stored in a dry nitrogen atmosphere.
