NOTE: Exceeding any one or a combination of the above maximum rating lim-
its may cause permanent damage. Input RF transients to +15dBm will not
harm the device. For sustained operation at inputs >+5dBm, a small dropping
resistor is recommended in series with the VCC in order to limit the current due
to self-biasing to <32mA.
