4. This parameter will not be tested in production.
5. This delay corresponds to the internal transmit path delay and will be defined during design.
6. Taking into account the resolution of the DDS and an accuracy of 100 ppm of the crystal.
7. A sinusoidal signal of 10 kHz and 100 mVpp is injected between VDDA and VSSA. The digital AD converter generates an idle pattern. The
signal level at TX_OUT is measured to determine the parameter.
8. A sinusoidal signal of 50 Hz and 100 mVpp is injected between VDDA and VSSA. The digital AD converter generates an idle pattern. The
signal level at TX_OUT is measured to determine the parameter.
The LPF filter + amplifier must have a frequency characteristic between the limits listed below. The absolute output level
depends on the operating condition. In production the measurement will be done for relative output levels where the 0 dB
reference value is measured at 50 kHz with a signal amplitude of 100 mV.
