My FEM module can boost upto +21 dBm. How to correlate the tx power of radio peripheral(NRF52) and fem module(NRF21540). The output logs are given below.

&lt;p&gt;The MPSL FEM driver will automatically calculate the output power of the SoC and the FEM gain to get the desired output power.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reason you are not seeing higher output power is because the sample by default is configured to only have a maximum of 4dBm output power.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you modify the &lt;a href="https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/d0bef36f9bda4c30f58382d57413f01d8d55ba2f/samples/bluetooth/hci_pwr_ctrl/src/main.c#L43C1-L44C30"&gt;txpower array&lt;/a&gt; to use higher output powers you will get more than 4dBm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
