Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Input impedance is measured at the LNAIN pin. Note that the impedance at 315MHz includes the 12nH inductive degenera-
tion from the LNA source to ground. The impedance at 434MHz includes a 10nH inductive degeneration connected from
the LNA source to ground. The equivalent input circuit is 50Ω in series with ~2.2pF. The voltage conversion is measured
with the LNA input-matching inductor, the degeneration inductor, and the LNA/mixer tank in place, and does not include the
IF filter insertion loss.
