Note 1: Not using a 10 MHz crystal is allowed but not recommended because all crystal referred timing
and frequency parameters will change accordingly.
Note 2: See the BER diagrams in the measurement results section for detailed information (Not available
at this time).
Note 3: See matching circuit parameters and antenna design guide for information.
