Abstract
A transmitter circuit and method for transmitting a data signal at a desired transmitter power level. The transmitter circuit includes an attenuator for attenuating the data signal by an attenuation factor. An external amplifier receives the attenuated signal and amplifies the signal to an amplified signal voltage. A storage unit containing a set of calibrated power levels associated to a set of amplifier voltages provides a calibrated power level based on the amplified signal voltage. A controller is configured to modify the attenuation factor of the attenuator in response to the difference between the calibrated power level and the desired transmitter power level.
