Note 5:
Operation outside this range is possible, but with degraded performance of some parameters. See the
Typical Operating
Characteristics.
Note 6:
Not production tested.
Note 7:
All limits reflect losses of external components, including a 0.8dB loss at f
IF
= 350MHz due to the 4:1 impedance trans-
former. Output measurements taken at the IF outputs of
Typical Application Circuit.
Note 8:
Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 9:
100% production tested for functional performance.
Note 10: RF frequencies below 2400MHz require external RF tuning similar to components listed in Table 2.
Note 11: Maximum reliable continuous input power applied to the RF or IF port of this device is +12dBm from a 50
Ω source.
Note 12: Measured with external LO source noise filtered so the noise floor is -174dBm/Hz. This specification reflects the effects of
all SNR degradations in the mixer, including the LO noise as defined in Application Note 2021:

Measurement of Local Oscillator Noise in Integrated Circuit Base Station Mixers.
