As specified, a mean Q-factor of 3 for a 10dB voltage gain is shown on Figure 176.<br />

Figure 176. Q and maximum gain versus central frequency<br />

NF on 50Ω source impedance R1 is 15dB, and in-band IIP3 stays above 9dBm, as<br />

shown on Figure 177. Measurements are in line with the expected dynamic range. This filter,<br />

using 3.3V, allows a -5.5dBm maximum input power to be supported without <strong>de</strong>grading<br />

performances (Figure 178). Hence, the filter is able to keep its high RF performances even<br />

when handling a large signal swing from the LNA output.<br />
