Note 2:
Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 3:
Measured using typical operating circuit. Input and output impedance matching networks were optimized for best simulta-
neous gain and noise-figure performance.
Note 4:
External component and circuit losses degrade noise-figure performance. Specification excludes external component and
circuit board losses.
Note 5:
Measured with two input tones, f
1
= 899MHz, f
2
= 901MHz, both at -34dBm per tone.
Note 6:
Measured with two input tones, f
1
= 1899MHz, f
2
= 1901MHz, both at -34dBm per tone.
Note 7:
Measured with two input tones, f
1
= 1574MHz, f
2
= 1576MHz, both at -34dBm per tone.
Note 8:
Measured with two input tones, f
1
= 2449MHz, f
2
= 2451MHz, both at -34dBm per tone.
