AWR1642: AWR series received power estimation

Part Number: AWR1642

Hello, experts.

I've some question about calculating real received power level.

In many previous documents from your side, the output power level of the mmWave studio with DCA1000 board shows dBfs scale and it can be converted to dBm scale by adding just 10 dB.

For example, if the output signal power level seems -30 dBfs, then the real output power would be -30+10 = -20 dBm.

With this formula, if we think the system impedance as 50 ohm, the ADC's (signal path ADC, not GPADC) maximum operation voltage level is +-1V (2Vp-p).

In here, is this right? I wonder the maximum voltage swing and the impedance of the ADC.
