Notes:
1. Additional testing information is available in Application Note AN388. Volume = maximum for all tests. Tested at
RF = 98.1 MHz.
2. To ensure proper operation and receiver performance, follow the guidelines in “AN383: Antenna Selection and
Universal Layout Guidelines.” Silicon Laboratories will evaluate schematics and layouts for qualified customers.
