Stresses at or above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage to the product. This is a
stress rating only; functional operation of the product at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
Thermal performance is directly linked to PCB design and
operating environment. Careful attention to PCB thermal
design is required.
θ
JA
is the natural convection junction to ambient thermal
resistance measured in a one cubic foot sealed enclosure. θ
JC
is
the junction to case thermal resistance.

1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 GND Ground. These pins and package bottom must be connect to RF/dc ground.
2 LO Local Oscillator Port. This pin is ac-coupled and matched to 50 Ω.
5
IF
Intermediate Frequency Port. This pin is dc-coupled. For applications not requiring operation to dc, dc
block this port externally using a series capacitor of a value chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency
range. For operation to dc, this pin must not source/sink more than 3 mA of current or die malfunction
and possible die failure may result.
8 RF Radio Frequency Port. This pin is ac-coupled and matched to 50 Ω.
10, 11, 12 NIC Not Internally Connected. These pins can be connected to RF/dc ground. Performance is not affected.
EPAD
Exposed Pad. The exposed pad must be connected to RF/dc ground.
