Notes:
* The value of the VBATT decoupling capacitor depends on the noise level of the phone board.
Capacitor type may be either tantalum or ceramic. Some applications may not require this capacitor.
1. All the PA output measurements are referenced to the PA output pad (pins 8 and 9).
2. The 50
Ω μstrip between the PA output pad and the SMA connector has an approximate insertion loss
of 0.1 dB for GSM850/EGSM900 and 0.2 dB for DCS1800/PCS1900 bands.
