Use the drop-down box labeled Offset Adj to perform an offset correction to the LNA if the LNA power setting BIAS_CURR_A(12) has been set low. The default value is 32. Select 33 if the low LNA power setting BIAS_CURR_A(12) is used. Figure 12. SPI Controller, OFFSET(10) Box Figure 10. SPI Controller, CHIP GRADE(2) Box 4.
