Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Use appropriate ESD precautions. Meets Class 1 ESD test requirements, (human body model, HBM), in accor-
dance with MIL-STD-883C, method 3015. Do not operate or store near strong electrostatic fields.
Specification for packaged product only.
Sensitivity is defined as the average signal level measured at the input necessary to achieve 10–2 BER (bit error rate). The input signal is
defined as a return-to-zero (RZ) waveform with 50% average duty cycle at a data rate of 1kbps (Manchester encoded). The RF input is
assumed to be matched into 50Ω.
