Figure 5. Block diagram of 2 GHz production test board used for Noise Figure, Gain, P1dB, OIP3, and IIP3 measurements. This circuit represents a
trade-off between an optimal noise match, maximum OIP3 match and associated impedance matching circuit losses. Circuit losses have been de-
embedded from actual measurements.

Notes:
2. The Fmin values are based on a set of 16 noise figure measurements made at 16 different impedances using an ATN NP5 test system. From these
measurements Fmin is calculated. Refer to the noise parameter measurement section for more information.
3. Measurements taken above and below 2 GHz was made using a double stub tuner at the input tuned for low noise and a double stub tuner at the
output tuned for maximum OIP3. Circuit losses have been de-embedded from actual measurements.
