13. All external circuitry parts are readily available, low cost
surface mount components (.060 in. x .030 in. or .080 in.
x .050 in.).
14. Pin 2 allows use of an external resistor to ground for op-
tional higher current. For 20 mA operation, no resistor is
used.

The spurious table shows the spurious signals resulting from
the mixing of the RFIN and LO input signals, assuming down
conversion. The number of dB below the conversion loss
level indicates the mixing products. The lower frequency
mixing term is shown for two different input levels. The top
number is for an RFIN power level of –19 dB; the lower
number is for –29 dB. Assuming the LNA gain is
approximately 14 dB, the mixer input will see approximately
–5 dB and –15 dB.
