DESCRIPTION
The TC1304V is the same as TC1304 expect via holes in the source pads for reducing the grounding inductance.
The device is processed with via-holes for high gain applications. It can be used in circuits up to 30 GHz and
suitable for low noise and medium power amplifier applications including a wide range of commercial and
military applications. All devices are 100% DC tested to assure consistent quality. All bond pads are gold plated
for either thermo-compression or thermo-sonic wire bonding.

Note:
* For the tight control of the pinch-off voltage . TC1304V’s are divided into 3 groups:
(1)
TC1304VP0710
: Vp = -0.7V to -1.0V (2)
TC1304VP0811
: Vp = -0.8V to -1.1V
(3)
TC1304VP0912
: Vp = -0.9V to -1.2V
In addition, the customers may specify their requirements.

CHIP HANDLING
DIE ATTACHMENT:
Conductive epoxy or eutectic die attach is recommended. For eutectic die attach can be
accomplished with Au-Sn (80%Au-20%Sn) perform in State Temperature: 290℃
±
5
℃
; Handling Tool :
Tweezers ; Time: less than 1min .
WIRE BONDING:
The recommended wire bond method is thermo-compression bonding with 0.7 or 1.0 mil
(0.018 or 0.025mm) gold wire. Stage Temperature: 220℃ to 250℃ ; Bond Tip Temperature : 150℃ ; Bond Force:
20 to 30 gms depending on size of wire and Bond Tip Temperature.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
The user must operate in a clean, dry environment. Care should be exercised
during handling avoid damage to the devices. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions should be observed at all
stages of storage, handling, assembly, and testing. The static discharge must be less than 300V.
