Notes:
1. Standard deviation number is based on measurement of at least 500 parts from three non-consecutive wafer lots during the initial characterization of
this product and is intended to be used as an estimate for distribution of the typical specification.
2. IIP3 test condition: F
RF1
= 1.91 GHz, F
RF2
= 1.89 GHz with input power of -10 dBm per tone and LO power = -3 dBm at LO frequency F
LO
= 1.7 GHz.
3. Conversion loss, P1dB and NF data have de-embedded balun loss = 0.8 dB @ 210 MHz.

Harmonic Intermodulation Suppression
[10 ]
Note:
10. Test Conditions of Harmonic Intermodulation Suppression:
a) RF =1.91 GHz @-10 dBm and LO =1.7 GHz @-3 dBm.
b) RF harmonics and intermodulation products are referenced to a desired signal produced by
frequency IF = 210 MHz.
c) LO Harmonics are referenced to the -3 dBm LO drive signal.
