2. Enable "RF Envelope > On".
3. Enable "Envelope Voltage Adaptation > Auto Power/Normalization".
4. Select "I/Q Analog Settings > Shaping".
With the provided settings, you can configure the shape of the RF envelope signal.
The instrument applies the settings and calculates the shaping function. A diagram
visualizes the resulting envelope shape, as function of the selected supply voltage
V
cc
and PEP
in
value limits, the calculated pre-gain and the estimated operating
point of the PA.
