Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] 10 bit samples

[Vincenzo Pellegrini]

Thank you Thomas (and Marcus) 

for the replies. I've been using the 8 bit mode un the USRP1 a while ago for a different application. I was looking for a slightly higher precision.

I did not know that the usrp2 could not do the 8bit sampling. Thanks for the info.

Regards

No. But you can produce 8-bit samples on the USRP1 by appropriately
setting the FR_RX_FORMAT register. You can set it through the standard
interface. This option is not available on the USRP2.
