= -30°C to +70°C, VCC = +2.7 to +3.6V. These characteristics are guaranteed by either production test or
design. They apply within the specified ambient temperature and supply voltage ranges unless otherwise stated.
Unless otherwise stated the frequencies used for measurements are to be.
900MHz Signal Path: RF = 881.5MHz, LO = 966.88MHz, IF = 85.38MHz.
