Note1: The gain of the modulator is
calculated given that the input signal is
in IQ format i.e. when calculated
from either I or Q channel the gain
must be corrected by -6 dB.
Note 2: As with the modulator the
down-converter gain includes +6dB
relative to the datasheet gain because
the signal is present in I and Q
channels.
Note 3: The voltages quoted as
'Typical Levels' are those observed in
I or Q channels, i.e. not the composite
signal.
