MACOM recommends a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane, and thermal vias under the package to dissipate heat. A thermal pad on the bottom of the package should be connected to a heat sink or a thermal management system.
The device requires a bias voltage of 5V and a bias current of 100mA. Ensure the bias circuit is designed to provide a stable voltage and current, and that the device is properly terminated to prevent oscillations.
MACOM recommends using a conjugate match at the input and output ports to achieve optimal performance. A 50Ω system impedance is recommended, and a π-network or T-network can be used for matching.
The device is sensitive to ESD, so proper handling and storage procedures should be followed. Use an ESD wrist strap or mat, and ensure the device is stored in an anti-static bag or container.
The recommended operating temperature range for the MADS-002502-1246LP is -40°C to 85°C. Operating the device outside this range may affect its performance and reliability.
