2. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may

cause permanent damage to this device.

3. M/A-COM does not recommend sustained operation near

these survivability limits.

4. When the RF input is applied to the terminated port, the

absolute maximum power is +30 dBm.

5. Standard CMOS TTL interface, latch-up will occur if logic

signal is applied prior to power supply.

Handling Procedures

Please observe the following precautions to avoid

damage:

Static Sensitivity

Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive

to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be

damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control

techniques should be used when handling these

devices.
