10.5 Power-Class Programming

The PC0–PC2 terminals are programmed to set the default value of the power-class indicated in the pwr field
(bits 21–23) of the transmitted self-ID packet. Table 10−9 shows the descriptions of the various power classes. The
default power-class value is loaded following a system (hardware) reset, but is overridden by any value subsequently
loaded into the Pwr_Class field in register 4.
