\section dboards Daughterboard Properties


The following contains interesting notes about each daughterboard.
Eventually, this page will be expanded to list out the full properties
of each board as well.

\subsection dboards_basicrx Basic RX and LFRX

The Basic RX and LFRX boards have four modes of operation:

-   **Antenna Mode A:** real signal from antenna RXA
-   **Antenna Mode B:** real signal from antenna RXB
-   **Antenna Mode AB:** complex signal using both antennas (IQ)
-   **Antenna Mode BA:** complex signal using both antennas (QI)

The way in which you select the mode depends on the USRP type.

The X300 series will create subdevices 0 and 1 for each BasicRX or LFRX board.
The default is to make a channel for each subdevice. That can be controlled by
setting the subdev spec:

~~~{.cpp}
auto usrp = uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make("type=x300");
usrp->set_rx_subdev_spec("A:1"); // Only 1 channel using subdevice 1 on Radio A
~~~

The antenna mode is selected for each channel using the antenna API:

~~~{.cpp}
auto usrp = uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make("type=x300");
usrp->set_rx_antenna("A", 0); // Disable RXB port on channel 0
~~~

On the USRP2, the N200 series, the B100 series, the E100, and the USRP1 the mode
depends on the subdev spec applied:

~~~{.cpp}
auto usrp = uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make("type=usrp2");
usrp->set_rx_subdev_spec("A:A"); // Disable RXB port
~~~

The boards have no tunable elements or programmable gains. Through the
magic of aliasing, you can down-convert signals greater than the Nyquist
rate of the ADC.

BasicRX Bandwidth:

-   **For Real-Mode (Antenna Mode A or B)**: 250 MHz
-   **For Complex (Antenna Mode AB or BA)**: 500 MHz

LFRX Bandwidth:

-   **For Real-Mode (Antenna Mode A or B)**: 33 MHz
-   **For Complex (Antenna Mode AB or BA)**: 66 MHz

\subsection dboards_basictx Basic TX and LFTX

The Basic TX and LFTX boards have 4 modes of operation:

-   **Antenna Mode A:** real signal from antenna TXA
-   **Antenna Mode B:** real signal from antenna TXB
-   **Antenna Mode AB:** complex signal using both antennas (IQ)
-   **Antenna Mode BA:** complex signal using both antennas (QI)

The boards have no tunable elements or programmable gains. Through the
magic of aliasing, you can up-convert signals greater than the Nyquist
rate of the DAC.

BasicTX Bandwidth:

-   **For Real-Mode (Antenna Mode A or B**): 250 MHz
-   **For Complex (Antenna Mode AB or BA)**: 500 MHz

LFTX Bandwidth:

-   **For Real-Mode (Antenna Mode A or B)**: 33 MHz
-   **For Complex (Antenna Mode AB or BA)**: 66 MHz

\subsection dboards_dbsrx DBSRX

\subsection dboards_rfx RFX Series

The RFX Series boards have 2 quadrature frontends: Transmit and Receive.
Transmit defaults to low IF, and Receive defaults to direct conversion.
The IF can be adjusted through lo_offset in uhd::tune_request_t.

The RFX Series boards have independent receive and transmit LO's and
synthesizers allowing full-duplex operation on different transmit and
receive frequencies.

Transmit Antennas: **TX/RX**

Receive Antennas: **TX/RX** or **RX2**

-   **Frontend 0:** Complex baseband signal for selected antenna

The user may set the receive antenna to be TX/RX or RX2. However, when
using an RFX board in full-duplex mode, the receive antenna will always
be set to RX2, regardless of the settings.

\subsection dboards_xcvr XCVR 2450

\b Note: The XCVR2450 is not compatible with the X3x0-Series.

The XCVR2450 has 2 quadrature frontends, one transmit, one receive.
Transmit and Receive default to direct conversion but can be used in low
IF mode through lo_offset in uhd::tune_request_t.

The XCVR2450 has a non-contiguous tuning range consisting of a high band
(4.9-6.0 GHz) and a low band (2.4-2.5 GHz).

Transmit Antennas: **J1** or **J2**

Receive Antennas: **J1** or **J2**

-   **Frontend 0:** Complex baseband signal for selected antenna

The XCVR2450 uses a common LO for both receive and transmit. Even though
the API allows the RX and TX LOs to be individually set, a change of one
LO setting will be reflected in the other LO setting.

The XCVR2450 does not support full-duplex mode, attempting to operate in
full-duplex will result in transmit-only operation.

Notes:
- When used in the X300/X310 at frequencies below 1 GHz, it is necessary to
  reduce the daughterboard clock rate to 20 MHz to achieve phase
  synchronization and best RF performance (see \ref config_devaddr).
- The LO lock sensor for the UBX can intermittently fail to report True. In that
  case, the UBX has a temperature compensation mode, which can be activated to
  help the synthesizer to lock. It may also increase the tuning time, though,
  which is why the default is to disable the temperature compensation mode.
  To enable the temperature compensation mode, identify the property tree path
  to the daughterboard, and set the `temp_comp_mode` to "enabled":
~~~~{.cpp}
// Assume DEV is a valid device, and we are talking to the UBX in motherboard 0
// in slot A:
DEV->get_tree()->access<std::string>("/mboards/0/rx_frontends/A/temp_comp_mode/value")
    .set("enabled");
~~~~

More information:
\li \subpage page_twinrx

More information:
\li \subpage page_zbx

\subsection dboards_clock_rate Daughterboard reference clock

The USRP motherboard provides a reference clock to the daughterboards, which
the daughterboards will use to generate LO signals or anything else that
requires a reference clock.

The X3x0 has a programmable reference clock, which might have to be changed
depending on various applications (see the daughterboard sections above).
However, it can provide only one daughterboard clock per device, which can
lead to conflicts. It might not be possible to use a specific daughterboard
together with all others.

\subsection dboards_dbsrxmod DBSRX - Modifying for other boards that USRP1

Due to different clocking capabilities, the DBSRX will require
modifications to operate on a non-USRP1 motherboard. On a USRP1
motherboard, a divided clock is provided from an FPGA pin because the
standard daughterboard clock lines cannot provided a divided clock.
However, on other USRP motherboards, the divided clock is provided over
the standard daughterboard clock lines.

\subsubsection dboards_dbsrxmod_1 Step 1: Move the clock configuration resistor

Remove **R193** (which is 10 Ohms, 0603 size), and put it on **R194**, which is
empty. This is made somewhat more complicated by the fact that the silkscreen
is not clear in that area. **R193** is on the back, immediately below the large
beige connector, **J2**. **R194** is just below, and to the left of **R193**.

The silkscreen for **R193** is ok, but for **R194**, it is upside down, and
partially cut off. If you lose **R193**, you can use anything from 0 to 10 Ohms
there.

\subsubsection dboards_dbsrxmod_2 Step 2: Burn a new daughterboard id into the EEPROM

With the daughterboard plugged-in, run the following commands:

    cd <install-path>/lib/uhd/utils
    ./usrp_burn_db_eeprom --id=0x000d --unit=RX --args=<args> --slot=<slot>

-   `<args>` are device address arguments (optional if only one USRP
    device is on your machine)
-   `<slot>` is the name of the daughterboard slot (optional if the
    USRP device has only one slot)

\subsection dboards_rfxmod RFX - Modify to use motherboard oscillator

Older RFX boards require modifications to use the motherboard
oscillator. If this is the case, UHD software will print a warning about
the modification. Please follow the modification procedures below:

- Step 1: Disable the daughterboard clocks**

Move **R64** to **R84**. Move **R142** to **R153**.

- Step 2: Connect the motherboard blocks

Move **R35** to **R36**. Move **R117** to **R115**. These are all 0-Ohm,
so if you lose one, just short across the appropriate pads.

- Step 3: Burn the appropriate daughterboard ID into the EEPROM

With the daughterboard plugged in, run the following commands: :

    cd <install-path>/lib/uhd/utils
    ./usrp_burn_db_eeprom --id=<rx_id> --unit=RX --args=<args> --slot=<slot>
    ./usrp_burn_db_eeprom --id=<tx_id> --unit=TX --args=<args> --slot=<slot>

-   `<rx_id>` choose the appropriate RX ID for your daughterboard
    -   **RFX400:** 0x0024
    -   **RFX900:** 0x0025
    -   **RFX1800:** 0x0034
    -   **RFX1200:** 0x0026
    - **RFX2400:** 0x0027
-   `<tx_id>` choose the appropriate TX ID for your daughterboard
    -   **RFX400:** 0x0028
    -   **RFX900:** 0x0029
    -   **RFX1800:** 0x0035
    -   **RFX1200:** 0x002a
    -   **RFX2400:** 0x002b
-   `<args>` are device address arguments (optional if only one USRP device is on your machine)
-   `<slot>` is the name of the daughterboard slot (optional if the USRP device has only one slot)
