Hi,

When using the UHD "tx_waveforms" example, I can see that the signal
emitted by my N310 USRP is saturated when it’s not supposed to be.

Here's a snapshot of the signal when I set the amplitude to 0.003:
.\tx_waveforms.exe --rate 12.5e6 --nsamps 1250000000 --freq 1575.42e6
--ampl 0.003 --otw sc16 --wave-type SINE --wave-freq 10e3 --channels 2

Here's a snapshot of the signal when I set the amplitude to 0.03:
.\tx_waveforms.exe --rate 12.5e6 --nsamps 1250000000 --freq 1575.42e6
--ampl 0.03 --otw sc16 --wave-type SINE --wave-freq 10e3 --channels 2

As you can see from the pictures above, it seems that there's a saturation
in the signal when the amplitude is set to 0.03 (which is unexpected with
such a small amplitude). We have double-checked with a X300 device, and the
signal is normal in both cases.

Do you have an idea of what could be wrong, or a suggestion to try on our
side?

Technical Information:

   - Windows 10
   - USRP N310
   - UHD 3.13.0.3-rc1


Thank you!
