I have few questions regarding B210. 1) Ettus recommends -15 dBm for the max input power. Is this power at the RF ports (i.e. RX-A/RX-B)?
2) Max input power for AD9361 is given as +2.5dBm. Is the difference due to some additional circuitry preceding the 9361 or is -15 dBm just a value Ettus recommends to be on the safe side? 3) If my signal is guaranteed to be below -15dBm, can I set the B210 gain to its maximum, i.e. 76dB safely (except maybe ADC clipping) without damaging anything? 4) Is the 76dB gain solely due to the AD9361 or is there a separate LNA on B210? 5) AD9361 is 12 bits, thus theoretically has 72dB dynamic range though in practice apparently it is around 60 dB. Although B210 is not calibrated after manufacturing what is the usual ballpark dBm level that corresponds to 0 dBFS level?\ \ Thanks!
