Notes:
1.
To ensure proper operation and
receiver performance, follow the
guidelines in “AN383: Si47xx
Antenna, Schematic, Layout, and
Design Guidelines.” Silicon
Laboratories will evaluate
schematics and layouts for qualified
customers.
2.
Place Si4707 as close as possible to
antenna jack and keep the FMI
traces as short as possible.

Notes:
1.
Permanent device damage may occur if the above Absolute Maximum Ratings are exceeded. Functional operation
should be restricted to the conditions as specified in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure beyond
recommended operating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2.
The Si4707 devices are high-performance RF integrated circuits with certain pins having an ESD rating of < 2 kV HBM.
Handling and assembly of these devices should only be done at ESD-protected workstations.
3.
For input pins SCLK, SEN, SDIO, RST, RCLK, GPO1, GPO2, and GPO3.
