| Product Overview |
| |
| QFN |
| |
| Based on copper lead frame, Quad Flat No-lead (QFN) or microchip carrier (MCC) uses half-encapsulation technology to expose the rear side of the die pad and the tiny fingers, which are used to connect the chip and bonding wire with the PCB. QFN packages are suitable for applications of over 12GHz working frequency. Providing both thermal and electrical en-hancement, QFN is a cost-effective packaging solution due to its economical materials and simpler packaging process. |

| Electrical |
| |
| The electrical data about leadless packages is variable. Two components - the bond wire and terminal can affect the electrical parasitic. Apparently, the effect from the terminal is trivial. Therefore, the electrical parasitic (mostly from the inductance) can be simply estimated by calculating the wire length. The empirical RLC values for gold wire in 25um diameter are 50mW /mm, 1nH/mm, and 0.06 pF/mm. |

| Thermal Characterization |
| |
| For QFN, the exposed die pad has to be soldered to the PCB to maintain its thermal performance. Little improvement is found if the pad is floating. Contact ASE R&D for details. |
