Spurious Table

The spurious table shows the spurious signals resulting from the

mixing of the RF and LO input signals, assuming down

conversion. Mixing products are indicated relative to the IF. The

lower frequency mixing term is shown for two different RF input

levels. The top number is for an RF input power of 0 dBm, the

lower number is for -10 dBm.

RF Frequency = 900 MHz

LO Frequency = 840 MHz
