Requires a 10 nF dc blocking capacitor. 5 CLIN A 1 nF capacitor connected between Pin 5 and ground provides decoupling for the on-board linearizer. 7 RFOUT RF Output and Bias. DC bias is provided to this pin through a 470 nH inductor (Coilcraft 1008CS-471XJLC or equivalent). The RF path requires a 10 nF dc blocking capacitor. EP Exposed Pad GND. Solder this pad to a low impedance ground plane. Rev.
