 I&amp;#39;m using nrf52840 with BLE functionality. 
 I don&amp;#39;t use sd_ble_gap_tx_power_set in my application. 
 Does it mean that I&amp;#39;m using default power (dbm)? 
 What is the default power? 
 
 Thanks!</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 18 Jan 2021 11:11:11 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/70606/ble---default-power-dbm" /><item><title>RE: BLE - default power (dbm)</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/289687?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 18 Jan 2021 11:11:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:3984a4a2-f61f-4ce9-be18-4d716942318b</guid><dc:creator>Karl Ylvisaker</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t use&amp;nbsp;sd_ble_gap_tx_power_set in my application.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, that is correct. If you do not use the sd_ble_gap_tx_power_set function the SoftDevice will use the TXPOWER&amp;#39;s default value.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fps_nrf52840%2Fradio.html&amp;amp;anchor=register.TXPOWER"&gt;The default value of the RADIO peripherals TXPOWER register is 0x0&lt;/a&gt;, which corresponds to 0 dBm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Karl&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
