The LXT3000Q20FC-L06-21nH spiral chip inductors are manufactured on quartz (SiO2), 20 mils thick. These devices can be used over the full military temperature range -55°C to +125°C. Quality and workmanship is per MIL-S-883. Devices are 100% tested, visual inspected and packaged in waffle packs.Spiral Chip Inductors Lab kits are available from stock: L-Kit PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND SHORT APPLICATION NOTE Flip chip series of spiral chip inductors are designed to be used in chip and wire hybrid circuits as RF choke in biasing circuits, microwave circuit resonant elements and power supplies. When used as chokes, a modest Q is desirable while in oscillators Q has to be as high as possible. US Microwaves advanced thin film technologies allow for an important reduction of the DCR max, which translates into an increased Q. For spirals with w+s=25µm, Q values between 25 and 30 are obtained which represent a better compromise between the two applications. For lowest capacitance and higher self-resonance, the spiral chip inductors are manufactured on 20 mil thick quartz (SiO2) substrates. Chip scale, flip chip spiral inductors eliminate up to 3nH of parasitic inductance associated with the gold wires used for the standard series LXT3000Q20FC-L06-21nH. Eliminating the parasitic inductance improves inductor performance, self-resonance, precision and operability in the high gigahertz range applications. Flip chip spiral chip inductors are easily mounted by thermo compression or conductive epoxy. The ability to be attached with conductive epoxy opens the possibility of using these high Q and ultra high self-resonance inductors on other substrates than gold-coated thin film on ceramic circuits. The fact that the substrate is transparent fused silica is a bonus feature that helps in flip chip mounting operation without sophisticated and expensive equipment. Application notes AN 102, AN 112 and AN 113 are describing assembly methods for best performance. Manufactured with 99.9% pure gold, the spiral inductor chip does not need any protection and can operate even in hostile environments. Designed and manufactured by US Microwaves in 1990 for military and industrial applications, the spiral chip inductors now can find their place in optoelectronic and wireless consumer products as well. TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION: SEMICONDUCTOR-THIN FILM MANUFACTURING All thin film microwave products are manufactured using advanced semiconductors and thin film technologies including ultra-stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. US Microwaves employs proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of resistive films with sheet resistance films from 1W/sq to 10,000W/sq.
