Notes:
1. Parts with * should be populated as closely as possible to the instructions for each part.
2. The following parts should be placed as follows:
• For 3 dB pad before the driver, populate R9, R10 and R11. If the 3 dB pad is not needed,
populate R11 with a 0 Ω resistor.
• For 3 dB pad in between the driver and PA, populate R2, R4 and R5. If the 3 dB pad is not needed,
populate R2 with a 0 Ω resistor.
