Description
Shutdown Input Pin.
I
0–VDD V digital input. SDN should be = 0 in all modes except Shutdown mode.
When SDN = 1, the chip will be completely shut down, and the contents of the
registers will be lost.
I Differential RF Input Pins of the LNA.
I See application schematic for example matching network.

TX
5
NC
Transmit Output Pin.
O The PA output is an open-drain connection, so the L-C match must supply
VDD (+3.3 VDC nominal) to this pin.
No Connect. Not connected internally to any circuitry.
6
VDD
VDD
+1.8 to +3.6 V Supply Voltage Input to Internal Regulators.
The recommended VDD supply voltage is +3.3 V.
7
TXRAMP
O
Programmable Bias Output with Ramp Capability for External FET PA.
See "5.4. Transmitter (TX)" on page 26.

VDD
VDD
+1.8 to +3.6 V Supply Voltage Input to Internal Regulators.
The recommended VDD supply voltage is +3.3 V.

GPIO1
I/O General Purpose Digital I/O.
May be configured through the registers to perform various functions including:
I/O Microcontroller Clock Output, FIFO status, POR, Wake-Up timer, Low Battery
Detect, TRSW, AntDiversity control, etc.
