As Ian explained, oversampling happens both in the radio IC AND in the
FPGA. So yes, this already is the case. Whether or not all 16 bits of
the on-the-wire format are significant depends solely on a) your signal
and b) the ratio between the sampling rate on the bus between radio IC
and FPGA
Thanks for the response Ian, with packed you mean that when using the
SC16, it also uses all of its bits?
Considering the IC appears to always return 12 bits per sample,
couldn't the FPGA increase the number of bits even further for higher
dynamic range? I'm thinking maybe sampling at high an

Miguel,
By default UHD will always move samples to/from the B200 over USB in the so
called SC16 format, which is a fixed point point representation with 1 sign bit
and 15 fractional bits (-1<=x<1). You can also use SC12 and SC8, which have
respectively 1 sign bit and 11/7 fractional bits if you
Hello,
I got a B200 and I'm wondering if data is sent with "unsed" bits when
sending data from the sdr to the host. For instance in case of 12 bits
per sample, would those 12 bits be sent in a 16 bit block?
If that's the case, is there any reason not to transfer data more
efficiently (specially
