REGISTER MAP AND CODES

The filter frequency, preamplifier gain, postamplifier gain, and VGA maximum gain can be programmed using the SPI interface. Table 4

provides the bit map for the internal 8-bit register of the ADRF6516. The preamplifier, postamplifier, and VGA maximum gain code bits

(Bits[B3:B1]) are referred to elsewhere in this data sheet as Digital Gain Code 000 through Digital Gain Code 111.
