Notes:
1.  Measured in wafer form with T_chuck = 25°C. (Except θch-bs.)
2.  Channel-to-backside Thermal Resistance (θch-b) = 58°C/Ω at Tchannel (Tc)=150°C as measured using the liquid crystal method. Thermal Resis-
tance at backside temperature (T_b) = 25 °C calculated from measured data.

Notes:
1.  100% on-wafer RF testing is done at RF frequency = 18, 22, and 32 GHz.
2.  IF Input = 2 GHz, RF Input Power = -20 dBm, RF freq = LO + IF.
3.  Does not include LO amplifier gain of ~20 dB.
4.  ∆f = 2 MHz, RF Input Power = -5 dBm.
