Abstract
A power amplifier module includes a module substrate, a power transistor die, and a heat spreader. The module substrate has first, second, and third module pads exposed at a mounting surface. The power transistor die has an input/output surface that faces the mounting surface, an opposed ground surface, an input pad electrically coupled to the first module pad, an output pad electrically coupled to the second module pad, and an integrated power transistor. In an embodiment, the power transistor is a field effect transistor with a gate terminal coupled to the input pad, a drain terminal coupled to the output pad, and a source terminal coupled to the ground surface. The heat spreader has a thermal contact surface that is physically and electrically coupled to the ground surface of the power transistor die. An electrical ground contact structure is connected between the thermal contact surface and the third module pad.
