Hi All,
We have build a BLE beacon device based on the nrf52 chip. The device works fine but we would like to get a finer control over the TX power since it is used for proximity approximation. To achieve this we are planning to add a variable attenuator to our design (We haven't finalized on the attenuator chip to be used).
The idea is to control the TX power from the nrf52 based on the needs via the interface that the attenuator exposes (SPI/I2C). I don't see any issues with the software part of it but I am really concerned about getting the exact control on the Tx power even after adding the attenuator and also any side effects of doing this.
I would like to know from you guys about any similar experiences that you had or any possible challenges/issues that you feel I would face when doing this.
Thanks in advance.
