memory that is played back at the correct rate to the DAC to produce the
desired waveform. The ramp-up and ramp-down waveforms are produced
by playing back the look-up table in forward and reverse order respectively.
For a given power level the look-up table values are scaled by a steady-state
power constant so that the ramp waveform shape remains the same for all
power levels.
PIN Switch The RF PIN switch circuitry selects the RF path to and from the antenna
to either the Tx or Rx circuitry of the radio. In addition to the switching
functionality, the PIN switch is used to provide attenuation to the Rx front
end in high signal-strength locations.
