I am working on how channel scheduling algorithm influences system level  
power consumption in software defined radios. I need the power  
consumption  
of different components of SDR front ends.

Is there any document that lists the model names of the following  
components in USRP;

1. ADC

2. DAC

3. Analog filters at different stages of the radio front end chain

4. VCO

5. Mixer

6. Programmmable amplifier, etc.

If I get the model names of these components, I can look at the  
individual  
data sheets and find the corresponding power measurement.

Any feedback will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nazmul

Muhammad,

Schematics for USRP are located here. Pick the model of interest.
