5.1. ANTENNA Tx and Rx direct tie matching circuit
Figure 5.1.1 shows the Antenna maching circuit configuraltions. RF Line layout from LNA_P(24) and PA_OUT(20) to
the Antenna should be the shortest and straight. The REG_PA (#21) pin provides the DC bias to the PA_OUT(#20) pin.
This DC bias should be provided through the inductor (L3). Chebyshev lowpass filter is consist of components L5~L8
and C47~C50,to suppress harmonics.
*Only ML7345D needs to short C41 by 0ohm.
