Viewing the PRAM Waveform
After the waveform data is written to PRAM, the data pattern can be viewed
using an oscilloscope. There is approximately a 12–symbol delay between a
state change in the burst bit and the corresponding effect at the RF out. This
delay varies with symbol rate and filter settings, and requires compensation to
advance the burst bit in the downloaded PRAM file.
