1. You can choose the corresponding reference circuit above according to your demands on antenna
circuit design.
2. MAX2659 is the recommended LNA chip. You can disable LNA to save power with one GPIO
shown in above figure. Pay attention to this pin’s voltage level.
3. VDD supplies power for active antenna. You can choose the right VDD according to the requirements
for active antenna. This power circuit is not needed if passive antenna is applied here.
4. All NM capacitors are reserved for adjusting RF performance.
5. The capacitance of ESD component D1 should be less than 1Pf (e.g. LXES15AAA1-100).
