External LNA with AGC

Hi agag,

The EngineerZone article that you quoted was written to explain some newly added functionality. The user guide is currently in the process of being updated to include this new information. You can take the article as being correct, though there is a known issue with the timing that we're aiming to fix in SDK 0.26.

Kind Regards,
Michał

Hi Michal,

Thanks for the response. So with this newly added feature, Navassa AGC can control up to 87dB of external attenuation/gain instead of 29dB as the current user guide specifies? Meaning, the gain table can accommodate this extra 87dB and there will be more AGPIO pins used with this? 

Thanks,

Akiko

Hi Akiko,

Yes, the gain table can accommodate this extra 87 dB, but there are no additional AGPIO pins used with this. You can configure this at the bottom of the Board Configuration tab on the left of the TES:

Kind Regards,
