GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HMC7587 is an integrated, E-band gallium arsenide (GaAs),
monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), in-phase/
quadrature (I/Q) downconverter chip that operates from 81 GHz
to 86 GHz. The HMC7587 provides a small signal conversion
gain of 10 dB with 30 dBc of image rejection across the frequency
band. The device uses a low noise amplifier followed by an image
rejection mixer that is driven by a 6× multiplier.
The image rejection mixer eliminates the need for a filter following
the low noise amplifier. Differential I and Q mixer outputs are
provided for direct conversion applications. Alternatively, the
outputs can be combined using an external 90° hybrid and two
external 180° hybrids to allow for single-sideband applications. All
data includes the effect of a 3 mil wide ribbon wedge bond on the
RF port, and a 1 mil gold wire wedge bond on the intermediate
frequency (IF) ports.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The HMC7587 is a GaAs low noise I/Q downconverter with an
integrated LO buffer and a 6× multiplier. See Figure 210 for a
functional block diagram of the downconverter circuit architecture.
The RF input is internally ac-coupled and matched to 50 Ω. The
input passes through four stages of low noise amplification. The
preamplified RF input signal then splits and drives two singly
balanced passive mixers.
Quadrature LO signals drive the two I and Q mixer cores. The
LO path provides a 6× multiplier that allows the use of a lower
frequency range LO input signal, typically between 11.83 GHz
and 14.33 GHz. The 6× multiplier is implemented using a cascade
of 3× and 2× multipliers. The LO buffer amplifiers are included
on-chip to allow a typical LO drive level of only 2 dBm for full
performance.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BIASING SEQUENCE
The HMC7587 uses several amplifier and multiplier stages. The
active stages all use depletion mode pseudomorphic high electron
mobility transistors (pHEMTs). To ensure transistor damage does
not occur, use the following power-up bias sequence:
1. Apply a −2 V bias to VGAMP, VGLNA1, VGLNA2, VGLNA3, VGLNA4,
VGX2, and VGX3.
2. Apply a −1 V bias to VGMIX.
3. Apply 4 V to VDAMP1, VDAMP2, VDLNA1, VDLNA2, VDLNA3, and
VDLNA4, and apply 1.5 V to VDMULT.
4. Adjust VGAMP between −2 V and 0 V to achieve a total
amplifier drain current (IDAMP1 + IDAMP2) of 175 mA.
5. Adjust VGLNA1, VGLNA2, VGLNA3, and VGLNA4 to achieve a total
LNA drain current (IDLNA1 + IDLNA2 + IDLNA3 + IDLNA4) of 50 mA.
6. Apply the LO input signal with a power level of 2 dBm and
adjust VGX2 and VGX3 between −2 V and 0 V to achieve
80 mA of drain current on VDMULT.
To power down the HMC7587, follow the procedure in reverse.
For additional guidance on general bias sequencing, see the
MMIC Amplifier Biasing Procedure application note.
IMAGE REJECTION DOWNCONVERSION
A typical image rejection downconversion application circuit is
shown in Figure 211. For image rejection downconversions,
external 180°and 90° hybrid couplers are typically used. The 180°
hybrids or baluns convert the differential I and Q output signals to
unbalanced waveforms. The 90° hybrid then combines the outputs
in quadrature to form a classic Hartley image rejection receiver
with a typical image rejection of 30 dBc.

ZERO IF DIRECT CONVERSION
A typical zero IF direct conversion application circuit is shown
in Figure 212. It is important to ac couple the IFIP, IFIN, IFQP,
and IFQN pads to the ADC inputs. Most ADCs are designed to
operate with a common-mode voltage that is above ground.
The HMC7587 I/Q outputs are ground referenced and dc coupling
to a differential signal source with a common-mode output voltage
other than 0 V can cause degraded RF performance and possible
device damage due to electrical overstress.

MOUNTING AND BONDING TECHNIQUES FOR MILLIMETERWAVE GaAs MMICS
Attach the die directly to the ground plane eutectically or with
conductive epoxy.
To bring RF to and from the chip, use 50 Ω microstrip trans-
mission lines on 0.127 mm (5 mil) thick alumina thin film
substrates (see Figure 214).

THIN FILM SUBSTRATE

(0.003")
Figure 214. Routing RF Signals
To minimize bond wire length, place microstrip substrates as
close to the die as possible. Typical die to substrate spacing is
0.076 mm to 0.152 mm (3 mil to 6 mil).
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
To avoid permanent damage, adhere to the following precautions.
Storage
All bare die ship in either waffle or gel-based ESD protective
containers, sealed in an ESD protective bag. After opening the
sealed ESD protective bag, all die must be stored in a dry
nitrogen environment.
Cleanliness
Handle the chips in a clean environment. Never use liquid
cleaning systems to clean the chip.
Static Sensitivity
Follow ESD precautions to protect against ESD strikes.
Transients
Suppress instrument and bias supply transients while bias is
applied. To minimize inductive pickup, use shielded signal and
bias cables.
General Handling
Handle the chip on the edges only using a vacuum collet or with
a sharp pair of bent tweezers. Because the surface of the chip has
fragile air bridges, never touch the surface of the chip with a
vacuum collet, tweezers, or fingers.
MOUNTING
The chip is back metallized and can be die mounted with gold/
tin (AuSn) eutectic preforms or with electrically conductive epoxy.
The mounting surface must be clean and flat.
Eutectic Die Attach
It is best to use an 80%/20% gold/tin preform with a work surface
temperature of 255°C and a tool temperature of 265°C. When
hot 90%/10% nitrogen/hydrogen gas is applied, maintain the tool
tip temperature at 290°C. Do not expose the chip to a temperature
greater than 320°C for more than 20 sec. No more than 3 sec of
scrubbing is required for attachment.
Epoxy Die Attach
ABLEBOND 84-1LMIT is recommended for die attachment.
Apply a minimum amount of epoxy to the mounting surface so
that upon placing it into position, a thin epoxy fillet is observed
around the perimeter of the chip. Cure epoxy per the schedule
provided by the manufacturer.
WIRE BONDING
RF bonds made with (3 mil (0.0762 mm) × 0.5 mil (0.0127 mm)
gold ribbon are recommended for the RF ports and wedge bonds
with 1 mil (0.0254 mm) diameter gold wire are recommended for
the IF and LO ports. These bonds must be thermosonically bonded
with a force of 40 g to 60 g. DC bonds of 1 mil (0.0254 mm)
diameter, thermosonically bonded, are recommended. Create ball
bonds with a force of 40 g to 50 g and wedge bonds at 18 g to 22 g.
Create all bonds with a nominal stage temperature of 150°C.
Apply a minimum amount of ultrasonic energy to achieve reliable
bonds. Keep all bonds as possible, less than 12 mils (0.31 mm).
