Hi, I was going throught the code of wfm_rcv.py. The source is created using src = usrp.source_c (0, decim) (1) Since the default mux settings are 0x32103210 this means connect DAC0 to I0 and DAC1 to Q0(inputs of DDC0). 1)Why do we need input from 2 DACs, since the RF front end ou

Hi, I am using the usrp_siggen.py program to transmit a complex signal to the USRP. The interpolator on the transmit side generates an I and Q part for my signal and I transmit it via DAC0 and DAC1. 1)Is DAC0/DAC1 connected to J48/J49? Now I connect J48 to J19 and J49 to J18. 2)Is ADC0/ADC1 co
