= +25°C, unless otherwise noted.)
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note 1: Limits are guaranteed by design and characterization, and are not production tested.

Note 2: The recommended operating range is 5100MHz to 5850MHz. Operation outside this frequency range is possible but has not
been characterized. The device is matched, characterized, and tested at 5250MHz. For optimum performance at a given
frequency, the input and output ports must be properly matched. See Applications Information section for more information
on matching.
Note 3: Specifications are corrected for board losses (0.4dB at input, 0.4dB at output)
