Description
RF Ground. All ground pins should be tied together.
1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, GND

2
RFIN
Single-Ended 50 Ω Input to the RF Prescaler. This pin is ac-coupled internally via a 3 pF capacitor.
6
NC
No Connect. This pin can be left unconnected.
7
CE
Chip Enable. This pin is active high. When CE is brought low, the part enters into power-down mode. If
this functionality is not required, the pin can be left unconnected because it will be pulled up internally
through a weak pull-up resistor.
10
RFOUT
Divided Down Output of the Prescaler. This pin has an internal 100 Ω load resistor tied to VDD2 and an
ac-coupling capacitor of 1pF.
11
RFOUTB
Complementary Divided Down Output of the Prescaler. This pin has an internal 100 Ω load resistor tied
to VDD2 and an ac-coupling capacitor of 1 pF.
14
VDD2
Voltage Supply for the Output Stage. This pin should be decoupled to ground with a 1 nF capacitor and
can be tied directly to VDD1.
15
VDD1
Voltage Supply for the Input Stage and Divider Block. This pin should be decoupled to ground with a
1 nF capacitor.
EPAD
The LFCSP package has an exposed paddle that must be connected to GND.
