Antenna Interface Circuitry
The ANTP and ANTN pins provide RF input to the LNA
when AX5051 is in receiving mode, and RF output from the
PA when AX5051 is in transmitting mode. A small antenna
can be connected with an optional translation network. The
network must provide DC power to the PA and LNA. A
biasing to VREG is necessary.
Beside biasing and impedance matching, the proposed
networks also provide low pass filtering to limit spurious
emission.

Voltage Regulator
The AX5051 has an integrated voltage regulator, which
generates a stable supply voltage VREG from the voltage
applied at VDD_IO. Use VREG to supply all the VDD
supply pins.
