4.6 RF Receiver General Characteristics
Unless otherwise indicated, typical conditions are: Operating Ambient Temp = 25 °C, VBAT = 3.3 V, center frequency = 2,437 MHz,
and measured in 50 Ω test equipment attached at antenna port.
Measurements for this specification are made at the 50 Ω Antenna Port. See Section 5.1.1 Antenna Ports.
