QUICK REFERENCE DATA

PINNING - SOT115J

LIMITING VALUES

In accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System (IEC 60134).

1.Slope straight line is defined as gain at 750 MHz ??? gain at 45 MHz.

2.Tilt = 7.3 dB (55 to 547 MHz).

3.fp = 55.25 MHz; Vp = 44 dBmV; fq = 691.25 MHz; Vq = 44 dBmV; measured at fp + fq = 746.5 MHz.

4.Measured according to DIN45004B:

fp = 740.25 MHz; Vp = Vo;

fq = 747.25 MHz; Vq = Vo ???6 dB; fr = 749.25 MHz; Vr = Vo ???6 dB;

measured at fp + fq ??? fr = 738.25 MHz.

5.The module normally operates at VB = 24 V, but is able to withstand supply transients up to 30 V.

f (MHz)

ZS = ZL = 75 ??; VB = 24 V; 79 channels; tilt = 7.3 dB (50 to 550 MHz).

f (MHz)

f (MHz)

ZS = ZL = 75 ??; VB = 24 V; 79 channels; tilt = 7.3 dB (50 to 550 MHz).

ZS = ZL = 75 ??; VB = 24 V; 79 channels; tilt = 7.3 dB (50 to 550 MHz).
