Specifications guaranteed with IF from DC to 500MHz. For higher IF frequencies, consult IF
response curve for typical roll-off.
Environmental conditions: All units are designed to meet their specifications between -54°C and
+100°C and after exposure to any or all of the following tests per MIL-STD-202E.
Thermal Shock: Method 107D, Test Condition B
Altitude: Method 105C, Test Condition G
H.F. Vibration: Method 204C, Test Condition D
Mechanical Shock: Method 213B, Test Condition C
Random Vibration (15 minutes per axis): Method 214, Test Condition IIF
Solderability: Method 208C
Terminal Strength: Method 211A, Test Condition C
Resistance to Soldering Heat: Method 210A, Test Condition B
Sealed units meet the requirements of Method 106D of MIL-STD-202E when exposed to
humidity.
Exceeding any one or a combination of the Absolute
Maximum Rating conditions may cause permanent
damage to the device. Extended application of Absolute
Maximum Rating conditions to the device may reduce
device reliability. Specified typical performance or
functional operation of the device under Absolute
Maximum Rating conditions is not implied.

Specifications guaranteed with IF from DC to 500MHz. For higher IF frequencies, consult IF response curve for typical roll-off.
For best performance do not rely on the ground pin alone for grounding. The above performance is guaranteed with the base surface of the header
grounded to the circuit board ground plane. Use of the conductive epoxy or a mechanical clip is recommended.
