OPA858: About PCN : wire bonding change Au-->Cu.

Part Number: OPA858

Hi,

We have submitted a PCN to our customer regarding OPA858 wire bonding change (Au→Cu).

Therefore, we have the following inquiries.
The customer uses this part as a very high speed TIA and is concerned about the impact of the change.

I don't think there will be any problems since the parasitic components are the same, but Cu is harder than Au and is likely to oxidize more easily.Will this be a problem when used as a TIA?

thank you for your support.
