FPGA images for LoRa Gateway SX1301AP2-PCB_E336
===============================================

1. Content
----------

This directory contains the FPGA images to be programmed in the Semtech's
Reference Design board (SX1301AP2-PCB_E336) flash memory.

The different images contain the following features:

* SX1301_FPGA_200K_NOTCH_LBT_SPECTRAL_SCAN_915_v33.hex:
    - 200KHz Notch filter for TX (not programmable)
    - Listen-Before-Talk for 915+MHz frequency range (Japan)
    - Background Spectral Scan (limited)

* SX1301_FPGA_200K_NOTCH_LBT_SPECTRAL_SCAN_863_v33.hex:
    - 200KHz Notch filter for TX (not programmable)
    - Listen-Before-Talk for 863+MHz frequency range
    - Background Spectral Scan (limited)
Note: This image is the same as the 915+MHz version. It is just meant for
testing "Japan-like" LBT feature on a EU868 board. It does not provide certified
LBT for European band.

* SX1301_FPGA_NOTCH_PROG_SPECTRAL_SCAN_v31.hex:
    - Programmable notch filter for TX
    - Background Spectral Scan (full)

2. Usage
