2. Specification applies over the 0 °C to 35 °C temperature range (0 °C to 25 °C for output frequencies >20 GHz). Maximum leveled output power over
the 35 °C to 55 °C temperature range typically degrades by less than 2 dB.
3. Includes flatness.
4. Specifications apply over the 15 °C to 35 °C temperature range for output frequencies <50 MHz
5. Specifications apply over the 15 °C to 35 °C temperature range and are degraded 0.3 dB outside of that range.
