Physical units #117

Closed rodolfocarobene closed 3 months ago

rodolfocarobene commented 6 months ago

Instead of arbitrary units (used by QICK), it would be very nice if qibosoq could convert them (for ADC and DAC) to something more meaningful like dBm. It should be possible to do it using the reconstruction waveform function (that gives the analytical attenuation) and the maximum values possible.

Different QICK issues refer to this problem:

Even if the conversion is not exact, it could still be of some help.

Or maybe the easiest thing is to "calibrate" some kind of curve experimentally...

This was addressed by #123. Not completely maybe, but I think in the best way possible right now
