9.4.1 IEEE 802.11 Receiver Performance

The receiver performance under nominal conditions are:
  • VBAT = 3.3V
  • VDDIO = 3.3V
  • Temp = 25°C
  • Measured after DC blocking capacitor (C19) as in Reference Design

The following table provides the receiver performance characteristics for the ATWILC3000A.
