Guaranteed on MACOM Sample Board only 7,8 Absolute Maximum Ratings Handling Procedures The following precautions should be observed to avoid damage: Input Power 30 dBm Static Sensitivity Voltage (RF pins) 30 V Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive to Voltage (control pins) +1 V to -6 V electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques Storage Temperature -55C to +150C should be used when handling these HBM Class 1A devices. Case Temperature -40C to +85C 7. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause permanent damage to this device. 8. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these survivability limits. 2 22 MACOM Technology Solutions Inc.
