The circuit used for reliability testing is the ALH225C, a 2-stage Q band balanced amplifier. This MMIC was fabricated on both power and low noise substrate profiles. Both versions of the circuit were tested. The lifetests were conducted with accelerated DC bias and temperature conditions in order to attain failure in a reasonable length of time. Approximately 152 MMICs were used for step stress and lifetesting at 255, 270 and 285/spl deg/C ambient temperature. Despite the aggressive bias used in this lifetest, the estimated lifetimes at 125/spl deg/C for this process are high. The parameters extracted from this study for the high power MBE profile are MTF (125/spl deg/C) of 6/spl times/10/sup 9/ hours, with activation energy of 1.7 eV, and for the low noise MBE profile are MTF (125/spl deg/C) of 7/spl times/10/sup 7/ hours, with activation energy of 1.3 eV.","PeriodicalId":433600,"journal":{"name":"1999 GaAs Reliability Workshop.

The main source of hydrogen is in the plated internal metal surfaces of a hermetic enclosure used to package GaAs MMICs. We have found a new circuit technique for hydrogen mitigation, which may be useful under certain circumstances - use of a current regulation scheme for each transistor in a MMIC. The value of this method is that even under extremely high levels of hydrogen and accelerated temperature conditions where the HEMTs are expected to fully saturate with hydrogen, the net effect on RF gain degradation can be minimized to a tolerably low level.","PeriodicalId":433600,"journal":{"name":"1999 GaAs Reliability Workshop.

Both an off-state and an on-state BV/sub DG/ can be defined and measured, the former being more or less a diode property, while the latter is linked with impact ionization in the device channel. To be sure, since the breakdown voltage is typically defined fixing a certain threshold value for the gate reverse current, the indication it provides is valuable, but assuming a direct relationship between BV/sub DG/ and the device reliability under high field conditions would be erroneous. This work speculates on the non-trivial correlation existing between the breakdown voltage and the device hot electron reliability and degradation, taking as a test vehicle power Al/sub 0.25/Ga/sub 0.75/As/GaAs HFETs with different gate lengths.","PeriodicalId":433600,"journal":{"name":"1999 GaAs Reliability Workshop.
