V1 Lead-Free 3 mm 12-Lead PQFN Reference Application Note S2083 for lead-free solder reflow recommendations. Meets JEDEC moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements. Plating is 100% matte tin over copper. Handling Procedures Please observe the following precautions to avoid damage: Static Sensitivity Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques should be used when handling these devices. An external protection circuit using an anti-parallel diode pair can be used to protect the IC.
