Brian, If you refer to the usrp\fpga\sdr_lib\adc_interface.v
this is a comment stating: \\level sensing for AGC on line 67 of the verilog code file. I have read on the wiki that AGC can be implemented by moving resistors around, can you elaborate on this: which resistors, and on what board? I am assuming that there is some sort of feedback loop for the FPGA to an amplifier which uses the RSSI, is there not one? Thanks for your time and help. -Benjamin Dannan Quoting Brian Padalino <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 10:53 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > I am trying to achieve a goal of controlling the AGC, please help. > > > > Here is what I have so far, for the automatic gain control (AGC): > > > > I have found in the module adc_interface (which is in > > fpga\sdr_lib\adc_interface) a comment about level sensing for the AGC. > > > > I am assuming the module rssi and module adc_interface is where the AGC is > > controlled? > > > > If not where do I go about turning on or off the AGC.
