Description
Interface Schematic
RF output pin. This pin is DC-coupled and requires V through a bias
inductor sized accordingly to provide a high pass transformation with a
series capacitor.
CC
Ground connection. For best performance, keep traces physically short
and connect immediately to ground plane.

Analog gain control pin. This pin controls the gain of the IC. Minimum gain
occurs at V <0.4V and maximum gain is achieved with V =2.0V. 50dB

Power supply. This pin should be connected to a regulated supply and
requires a series inductor and bypass capacitor. Voltage is supplied
through this pin to the first stage collector; this voltage also controls the
bias. Gain may be tuned by adjusting the value of the feed inductor.
