IIP2, IIP3, and Noise Figure Plots vs. Frequency and Gain

Conditions

  • IIP3 and IIP2
    • Tone 1: -30dBm, 570KHz
    • Tone 2: -30dBm, 770KHz
  • NF:
    • Reference Tone: -100dBm, 570KHz

Notes
From these plots you can see that:

  • The minimum noise figure over the whole band is 5-6 dB
  • Typical IIP3 is 5-10 dBm
  • Typical IIP2 is 40-55 dBm

At every frequency there is a gain setting which gives a noise figure of less than 8 dB while simultaneously giving an IIP3 of better than 0dBm and an IIP2 of better than 40 dBm.
