MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
General
LDMOST base station modules are manufactured with the
dies directly mounted onto a copper flange. The matching
and bias circuit components are mounted on a
printed-circuit board (PCB), which is also soldered onto
the copper flange. The dies and the PCB are encapsulated
in a plastic cap, and pins extending from the module
provide a means of electrical connection. This construction
allows the module to withstand a limited amount of flexing,
although bending of the module is to be avoided as much
as possible. Mechanical stress can occur if the bottom
surface of the module and the surface of the amplifier
casing (external heatsink) are not mutually flat. This,
therefore, should be a consideration when mounting the
module in the amplifier. Another cause of mechanical
stress can arise from thermal mismatch after soldering of
the pins. Precautions should be taken during soldering,
and efforts made to ensure a good thermal contact
between the flange and the external heatsink.
External heatsink (amplifier casing)
The module should always be mounted on a heatsink with
a low thermal resistance to keep the module temperature
as low as possible. The mounting area of the heatsink
should be flat and free from burrs and loose particles. We
recommend a flatness for the mounting area of between
50 m concave and 50 m convex. The 50 m concave
value is to ensure optimal thermal behaviour, while the
50 m convex value is intended to limit mechanical stress
due to bending.
In order to ensure optimal thermal behaviour, the use of
thermal compound is recommended when mounting the
module onto the amplifier external heatsink.
The following recommended thermal compounds have a
thermal conductivity of >0.5 W/mK:
The use of thermal pads instead of thermal compound is
not recommended as the pads may not maintain a uniform
flatness over a period of time.

Electrical connections
The main ground path of all modules is via the flange. It is
therefore important that the flange is well grounded and
that return paths are kept as short as possible. An
incorrectly grounded flange can result in a loss of output
power or in oscillation.
The RF input and output of the module are designed for

Incoming inspection
When incoming inspection is performed, use a properly
designed test fixture to avoid excessive mechanical stress
and to ensure optimal RF performance. Philips can deliver
dedicated test fixtures on request.

wrench, tighten each bolt in alternating steps to a final
torque of 0.4 Nm.
