Thanks all!
As I know so far, RFX2400 doesn't have amplifier we can control. So
set_gain() doesn't affect any transmit power. Right?
Now I'm trying to control PGA gain on FPGA side, but I confused. AD9862 has
pga which can be controled in range [0 ~ -20dB].
self.u.set_pga(0,-20)
pga_gain = self.u.pga(0)
print 'PGA gain ',pga_gain
You can use the PGA to reduce the gain on the RFX-series boards, but the
problem is that the analog bias points for the quadrature modulator will
change. You may be able to reduce 5-10 dB, but it may not operate well
beyond that.
The other way to change the output power is to reduce your digital level
sent over the USB. Yes, this will reduce your dynamic range, so you
won't want to do -40dBm this way, but 10 or 20 dB in reduction is fine.
