Gain scaling—analog control: dB/V and V/V; digital control: dB/LSB and V/V/LSB.
1
For all AD832x parts, the reference impedance for powers in dBm is 75 Ω; for all other parts it is 50 Ω.
2
SE: single-ended; DIFF: differential.
3
75 Ω ZOUT also during power-down. All specifications for 75 Ω load resistance; however, the parts can be used with other load impedances.
4
AD8322 gain scaling is 6 dB/m.c. where m.c. stands for major carry, and is 0.2332 V/V/LSB between major carries.
