I wonder if that assertion is generally true, or only in some cases? Increment and test shouldn't be *that* expensive. I'm sure the benefit varies depending on the situation, including some where there is no benefit. But modulo increments add a conditional operation for every pointer

[Discuss-gnuradio] AGC on the RFX900 board

Hi, I have a few questions about the (analog) AGC on the AD8347 mixer chip on the Flex900 daughterboard. 1. Given a signal received with some known power, is it possible to read the programmed AGC gains (and thereby find the mixer's noise figure)? 2. Is it possible to lock these gain settings?

Thanks, Marcus, for your prompt and detailed response. If I understand you correctly: 1. The best case noise figure of the RFX900 daughterboard is about 3-3.8 dB. This occurs when the mixer amplifiers are set to their highest gain setting. 2. These gain settings can be fixed via software (via
