It lists the maximum input power as 10dBm - anything more and you will likely fry it. For a "good" reading, I try to keep the input signal below -30dBm
This is with 0dB internal attenuation. If you increase attenuation these numbers can go up with the attenuation but do not fry the internal attenuator.?
With 30dB attenuation the tinySA will survive a +30dBm signal for a couple of seconds.?
With attenuation on automatic you are perfectly safe and you can expect good measurements of you stay below +5dBm
But to give the attenuation some spare I suggest to always stay below 0dBm at the input. This will allow you to use the internal attenuation most effective
