(MAX242X/MAX246X EV kit, V CC = +3.3V; f LO = 925.7MHz (MAX2440), f LO = 961MHz (MAX2441), f LO = 985MHz (MAX2442),

Note 5: Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 6: Image rejection typically falls to 30dBc at the frequency extremes.
Note 7: Refer to the Typical Operating Characteristics for plots showing receiver gain versus LNAGAIN voltage, input IP3 versus
LNAGAIN voltage, and noise figure versus LNAGAIN voltage.
Note 8: Two tones at P RXIN = -45dBm each, f1 = 915.0MHz and f2 = 915.2MHz.
Note 9: Time delay from RXON = 0.45V to RXON = 2.4V transition to the time the output envelope reaches 90% of its final value.
Note 10: Refers to useable operating range. Tuning range of any given tank circuit design is typically much narrower (refer to Figure 1).
Note 11: Using tank components L3 = 5.0nH (Coilcraft A02T), C2 = C3 = C26 = 3.3pF, R6 = R7 = 10
Ω.
Note 12: This approximates a typical application in which a transmitter is followed by an external PA and a T/R switch with finite
isolation.
Note 13: Relative to the rising edge of PREOUT.
