NOTE: Exceeding any one or a combination of the above maximum rating

limits may cause permanent damage. Input RF transients to +15dBm will not

harm the device. For sustained operation at inputs >+5dBm, a small dropping

to self-biasing to <32mA. Furthermore, while the LNA is in Bypass Mode, and

for sustained operation at the input, +10dBm is the maximum recommended

power level for Frequencies above 2300MHz. +5dBm is the maximum

recommended power level for Frequencies <2300MHz.
