NOTE: Exceeding any one or a combination of the above maximum rating
limits may cause permanent damage. Input RF transients to +15dBm will not
harm the device. For sustained operation at inputs >+5dBm, a small dropping
resistor is recommended in series with the V in order to limit the current due
CC
to self-biasing to <32mA. Furthermore, while the LNA is in Bypass Mode, and
for sustained operation at the input, +10dBm is the maximum recommended
power level for Frequencies above 2300MHz. +5dBm is the maximum
recommended power level for Frequencies <2300MHz.
