From the datasheet, the absolute maximum input power for this device is +10 dBm. This seems very low for most gain blocks and LNAs. Usually the number is on the order of +20 dBm. Is it possible to have this device see greater than +10 dBm for short (pulsed) periods of times with minimal degradation?
Can you expound on the failure mechanism for the stated abs max input power? Thanks!
