Test conditions unless otherwise noted. 1. T = 25°C, Vdd = 4.5 V, Frequency = 800 MHz, 50 ohm system. 2. 3OIP measured with two tones at an output power of 2 dBm/tone separated by 10 MHz. The suppression on the largest IM3 product is used to calculate the 3OIP using a 2:1 slope rule. 3. MTBF calculated with ground lead temperature at 85°C. 4. S11 can be improved using an optional matching network.
