Introduction

The gain table controls the RF output power of the ATWINC15x0 device. This application note describes the gain table structure and procedure to derive the gain tables during the product development phase.

Perform the following steps to derive the Application Gain Table:

  1. Performance Gain Table: Verify the Digital Gain (DG) setting to meet the IEEE 802.11 specifications.
  2. Certification Gain Table: Adjust the DG setting for the specific regulatory region compliance.
  3. Application Gain Table: Combine step 1 and step 2 to produce a composite gain table, which is used in the firmware.
