AC ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (continued)
(MAX2657/MAX2658 EV kit. V CC = 1.6V to 3.3V, T A = -40°C to +85°C, f RFIN = 1575.42MHz. Typical values are at V CC = 2.85V and
T A = +25°C, unless otherwise noted.) (Note 2)
PARAMETER CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNITS

Input 1dB Compression point (Note 5)
MAX2658 -10
dBm
Input Return Loss 10 dB
Output Return Loss 15 dB
Reverse Isolation 30 dB
Note 2: Min and max limits guaranteed by test at T A = +85°C and guaranteed by design and characterization at T A = -40°C and
T A = +25°C.
Note 3: Measured with the two tones located at 1MHz and 2MHz offset from the center of the GPS band with -30dBm/tone for
MAX2657 and -27dBm/tone for MAX2658.
Note 4: Measured with input tones at 1713MHz (-25dBm) and 1851MHz (-49dBm).
Note 5: Measured with a tone located at 5MHz offset from the center of the GPS band.
