Notes: 1. Q for a shunt DTC based on a series RLC equivalent circuit

2. In shunt between 50Ω ports. Pulsed RF input with 4620 µS period, 50% duty cycle, measured per 3GPP TS 45.005

3. DC path to ground at RF– must be provided to achieve specified performance

4. State change activated on falling edge of SEN following data word
