Function Documentation#

RAIL_InitTxPowerCurves#

RAIL_Status_t RAIL_InitTxPowerCurves (const RAIL_TxPowerCurvesConfig_t * config)

Initialize TxPower curves.

Parameters
[in]config

A pointer to the custom TX power curves.

Returns

  • Status code indicating success of the function call.

Deprecatedfunction is no longer supported. Must use RAIL_InitTxPowerCurvesAlt() instead.


Definition at line 97 of file plugin/pa-conversions/pa_conversions_efr32.h

RAIL_InitTxPowerCurvesAlt#

RAIL_Status_t RAIL_InitTxPowerCurvesAlt (const RAIL_TxPowerCurvesConfigAlt_t * config)

Initialize TxPower curves.

Parameters
[in]config

A pointer to the custom TX power curves.

Returns

  • RAIL_Status_t indicating success or an error.


Definition at line 105 of file plugin/pa-conversions/pa_conversions_efr32.h

RAIL_GetTxPowerCurve#

RAIL_TxPowerCurves_t const * RAIL_GetTxPowerCurve (RAIL_TxPowerMode_t mode)

Gets the curve that should be used for conversion functions based on the current PA configuration.

Parameters
[in]mode

PA mode whose curves are needed.

Returns

Note

  • : If the mode is not supported by the the chip, then NULL will be returned.

RAIL_GetTxPowerCurveLimits#

RAIL_Status_t RAIL_GetTxPowerCurveLimits (RAIL_Handle_t railHandle, RAIL_TxPowerMode_t mode, RAIL_TxPower_t * maxpower, RAIL_TxPower_t * increment)

Gets the maximum power in deci-dBm that should be used for calculating the segments and to find right curve segment to convert Dbm to raw power level for a specific PA.

Parameters
[in]railHandle

A RAIL instance handle.

[in]mode

PA mode whose curves are needed.

[out]maxpower

A non-NULL pointer to memory allocated to hold the max power in deci-dBm used in calculation of curve segments.

[out]increment

A non-NULL pointer to memory allocated to hold the increment in deci-dBm used in calculation of curve segments.

For the PAs with RAIL_PaConversionAlgorithm_tRAIL_PA_ALGORITHM_PIECEWISE_LINEAR, if the curves are generated with maxPower and increment other than RAIL_TX_POWER_CURVE_DEFAULT_MAX and RAIL_TX_POWER_CURVE_DEFAULT_INCREMENT respectively, then the first RAIL_TxPowerCurveSegment_t has its maxPowerLevel equal to RAIL_TX_POWER_LEVEL_INVALID and its slope and intercept stores the maxPower and increment in deci-dBm respectively.

Returns

  • Status code indicating success of the function call.
