| Freescale Semiconductor Data Sheet MC33596 Rev. 3, 06/2007 MC33596 PLL Tuned UHF Receiver for Data Transfer Applications 1 Overview GNDSUBD The MC33596 is a highly integrated receiver designed for low-voltage applications. It includes a programmable PLL for multi-channel applications, an RSSI circuit, a strobe oscillator that periodically wakes up the receiver while a data manager checks the content of incoming messages. A configuration switching feature allows automatic changing of the configuration between two programmable settings without the need of an MCU.

The circuit can be supplied from a 3 V voltage regulator or battery cell by connecting VCCIN and VCCINOUT. It is also possible to use a 5 V power supply connected to VCCIN; in this case VCCINOUT should not be connected to VCCIN. An on-chip low drop-out voltage regulator supplies the RF and analog modules (except the strobe oscillator and the low voltage detector, which are directly supplied from VCCINOUT). This voltage regulator is supplied from pin VCCINOUT and its output is connected to VCC2OUT. An external capacitor must be inserted between VCC2OUT and GND for stabilization and decoupling. The analog and RF modules must be supplied by VCC2 by externally wiring VCC2OUT to VCC2IN, VCC2RF and VCC2VCO.

Wiring Diagrams A second voltage regulator supplies the digital part. This regulator is powered from pin VCCDIG and its output is connected to VCCDIG2. An external capacitor must be inserted between VCCDIG2 and MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 6 Freescale Semiconductor 16 Supply Voltage Monitoring and Reset GNDDIG, for decoupling. The supply voltage VCCDIG2 is equal to 1.6 V. In standby mode, this voltage regulator goes into an ultra-low-power mode, but VCCDIG2 = 0.7 x VCCDIG. This enables the internal registers to be supplied, allowing configuration data to be saved. 7 Supply Voltage Monitoring and Reset At power-on, an internal reset signal is generated. All registers are reset. When the LVDE bit is set, the low-voltage detection module is enabled. This block compares the supply voltage on VCCINOUT with a reference level of about 1.8 V. If the voltage on VCCINOUT drops below 1.8 V, status bit LVDS is set. The information in status bit LVDS is latched and reset after a read access. NOTE If LVDE = 1, the LVD module remains enabled. The circuit cannot be put in standby mode, but remains in LVD mode with a higher quiescent current, due to the monitoring circuitry. LVD function is not accurate in standby mode. 8 Receiver Functional Description The receiver is based on a superheterodyne architecture with an intermediate frequency (IF) of 1.5 MHz (see Figure 1). Its input is connected to the RFIN pin. Frequency down conversion is done by a high-side injection I/Q mixer driven by the frequency synthesizer. An integrated poly-phase filter performs rejection of the image frequency. The low intermediate frequency allows integration of the IF filter providing the selectivity. The center frequency is tuned by automatic frequency control (AFC) referenced to the crystal oscillator frequency. Sensitivity is met by an overall amplification of approximately 96 dB, distributed over the reception chain, comprising low-noise amplifier (LNA), mixer, post-mixer amplifier, and IF amplifier. Automatic gain control (AGC), on the LNA and the IF amplifier, maintains linearity and prevents internal saturation. Sensitivity can be reduced using four programmable steps on the LNA gain. Amplitude demodulation is achieved by peak detection and comparison with a fixed or adaptive voltage reference selected during configuration. Frequency demodulation is achieved in two steps: the IF amplifier AGC is disabled and acts as an amplitude limiter; a filter performs a frequency-to-voltage conversion. The resulting signal is then amplitude demodulated in the same way as in the case of amplitude modulation with an adaptive voltage reference. A low-pass filter improves the signal-to-noise ratio. Shaped data are available if the integrated data manager is not used. If used, the data manager performs clock recovery and decoding of Manchester coded data. Data and clock are then available on the serial peripheral interface (SPI). The configuration sets the data rate range managed by the data manager and the bandwidth of the low-pass filter. An internal low-frequency oscillator can be used as a strobe oscillator to perform an automatic wakeup sequence. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 7 Frequency Planning It is also possible to define two different configurations for the receiver (frequency, data rate, data manager, modulation, etc.) that are automatically loaded during wakeup or under MCU control. If the PLL goes out of lock, received data are ignored. 9 9.1 Frequency Planning Clock Generator All clocks running in the circuit are derived from the reference frequency provided by the crystal oscillator (frequency fref, period tref). The crystal frequency is chosen in relation to the band in which the MC33596 has to operate. Table 4 shows the value of the CF bits. Table 4. Crystal Frequency and CF Values Versus Frequency Band RF Frequency (MHz) 304 315 426 433.92 868.3 916.5 CF1 CF0 LOF1 LOF0 FREF (Crystal Frequency) (MHz) 16.96745 17.58140 23.74913 24.19066 24.16139 25.50261 FIF (IF Frequency) (MHz) 1.414 1.465 1.484 1.512 1.510 1.594 Dataclk Divider 60 60 80 80 80 80 Fdataclk (kHz) 282.791 293.023 296.864 302.383 302.017 318.783 Digclk Divider 30 30 40 40 40 40 Fdigclk (kHz) 565.582 586.047 593.728 604.767 604.035 637.565 Tdigclk (s) 1.77 1.71 1.68 1.65 1.66 1.57 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 9.2 Intermediate Frequency The IF filter is controlled by the crystal oscillator to guarantee the frequency over temperature and voltage range. The IF filter center frequency, FIF, can be computed using the crystal frequency fref and the value of the CF bits: * If CF[0] = 0 : FIF = fref/9*1.5/2 * If CF[0] = 1 : FIF = fref/12*1.5/2 The cut-off frequency given in the parametric section can be computed by scaling to the FIF. Example 1. Cut-off Frequency Computation Compute the low cut-off frequency of the IF filter for a 16.9683 MHz crystal oscillator. For this reference frequency, FIF = 1.414 MHz. So, the 1.3751 MHz low cut-off frequency specified for a 1.5 MHz IF frequency becomes 1.3751*1.414/1.5 = 1.296 MHz 1. Refer to parameter 3.3 found in Section 18.1, "General Parameters." MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 8 Freescale Semiconductor Register Access through SPI 9.3 Frequency Synthesizer Description The frequency synthesizer consists of a local oscillator (LO) driven by a fractional N phase locked loop (PLL). The LO is an integrated LC voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) operating at twice the RF frequency (for the 868 MHz frequency band) or four times the RF frequency (for the 434 MHz and 315 MHz frequency bands). This allows the I/Q signals driving the mixer to be generated by division. The fractional divider offers high flexibility in the frequency generation for: * Switching between transmit and receive modes. * Achieving frequency modulation in FSK modulation transmission. * Performing multi-channel links. * Trimming the RF carrier. Frequencies are controlled by means of registers. To allow for user preference, two programming access methods are offered (see Section 16.3, "Frequency Register"). * In friendly access, all frequencies are computed internally from the contents of the carrier frequency and deviation frequency registers. * In direct access, the user programs direct all three frequency registers. 10 Register Access through SPI 10.1 SPI Interface the MC33596 and the MCU communicate via a bidirectional serial digital interface. According to the selected mode, the MC33596 or the MCU manages the data transfer. The MC33596's digital interface can be used as a standard SPI (master/slave) or as a simple interface (SPI deselected). In the latter case, the interface's pins are used as standard I/O pins. However, the MCU has the highest priority, as it can control the MC33596 by setting CONFB pin to the low level. The interface is operated by four I/O pins. * SEB -- Serial interface Enable When SEB is set high, pins SCLK, MOSI, and MISO are set to high impedance. This allows individual selection in a multiple device system, where all devices are connected via the same bus. The rest of the circuit remains in the current state, enabling fast recovery times, but the power amplifier is disabled to prevent any uncontrolled RF transmission. * SCLK -- Serial Clock Synchronizes data movement in and out of the device through its MOSI and MISO lines. The master and slave devices can exchange a byte of information during a sequence of eight clock cycles. Since SCLK is generated by the master device, this line is an input on a slave device. * MOSI -- Master Output Slave Input Transmits bytes when master, and receives bytes when slave, with the most significant bit first. When no data are output, SCLK and MOSI force a low level. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 9 Register Access through SPI * MISO -- (Master Input) Slave Output Transmits data when slave, with the MSB first. There is no master function. Data are valid on falling edges of SCLK. This means that the clock phase and polarity control bits of the microcontroller SPI have to be CPOL = 0 and CPHA = 1 (using Freescale acronyms). Table 5 summarizes the serial digital interface feature versus the selected mode. Table 5. Serial Digital Interface Feature versus Selected Mode (SEB = 1) Selected Mode Configuration Transmit Receive DME = 1 DME = 0 Standby / LVD MC33596 Digital Interface Use SPI slave, data received on MOSI, SCLK from MCU, MISO is output SPI deselected, MOSI receives encoded data from MCU SPI master, data sent on MOSI with clock on SCLK SPI deselected, received data are directly sent to MOSI SPI deselected, all I/O are high impedance The data transfer protocol for each mode is described in the following sections. 10.2 Configuration Mode This mode is used to write or read the internal registers of the MC33596. As long as a low level is applied to CONFB (see Figure 27), the MCU is the master node driving the SCLK input, the MOSI line input, and the MISO line output. Whatever the direction, SPI transfers are 8-bit based and always begin with a command byte, which is supplied by the MCU on MOSI. To be considered as a command byte, this byte must come after a falling edge on CONFB. Figure 3 shows the content of the command byte. Bit 7 Bit Name N1 Bit 6 N0 Bit 5 A4 Bit 4 A3 Bit 3 A2 Bit 2 A1 Bit 1 A0 Bit 0 R/W Figure 3. Command Byte Bits N[1:0] specify the number of accessed registers, as defined in Table 6. Table 6. Number N of Accessed Registers N[1:0] 00 01 10 11 Number N of Accessed Registers 1 2 4 8 Bits A[4:0] specify the address of the first register to access. This address is then incremented internally by N after each data byte transfer. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 10 Freescale Semiconductor Register Access through SPI R/W specifies the type of operation: 0 = Read 1 = Write Thus, this bit is associated with the presence of information on MOSI (when writing) or MISO (when reading). Figure 4 and Figure 5 show write and read operations in a typical SPI transfer. In both cases, the SPI is a slave. A received byte is considered internally on the eighth falling edge of SCLK. Consequently, the last received bits, which do not form a complete byte, are lost. NOTE A low level applied to CONFB does not affect the configuration register contents.

Read Operation in Configuration Mode (N[1:0] = 01) 10.3 Configuration Switching This feature allows for defining two different configurations using two different banks, and for switching them automatically during wakeup when using a strobe oscillator, or by means of the strobe pin actuation by the MCU. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 11 Register Access through SPI 10.3.1 Bit Definition Two sets of configuration registers are available. They are grouped in two different banks: Bank A and Bank B. Two bits are used to define which bank represents the state of the component. Bit Name BANKA BANKB BANKA X 0 1 Direction R/W R/W Location Bank A Bank B BANKB Actions 0 Bank A is active 1 Bank B is active 1 Bank A and Bank B are active and will be used one after the other At any time, it is possible to know what is the active bank by reading the status bit BANKS. Bit Name BANKS Direction R Location Comment A&B Bank status: indicates which register bank is active. This bit, available in Bank A and Bank B, returns the same value. 10.3.2 Bank Access and Register Mapping Registers are physically mapped following a byte organization. The possible address space is 32 bytes. The base address is specified in the command byte. This is then incremented internally to address each register, up to the number of registers specified by N[1:0], also specified by this command byte. All registers can then be scanned, whatever the type of transmission (read or write); however, writing to read-only bits or registers has no effect. When the last implemented address is reached, the internal address counter automatically loops back to the first mapped address ($00). At any time, it is possible to write or read the content of any register of Bank A and Bank B. Register access is defined as follows: R/W Bit can be read and written. R Bit can be read. Write has no effect on bit value. RR Bit can be read. Read or write resets the value. R [A] Bit can be read, this returns the same value as Bank A. RR [A] Bit can be read, this returns the same value as Bank A. Read or write resets the value. Table 7.

Bit value is the real time status of the PLL, BANKA, and BANKB access reflect the same value. Bit value is the latched value of the low-voltage detector. Read or write from any bank resets value. SOE can be modified in BANKA. Access from BANKB reflects BANKA value. RSSI value is directly read from RSSI converter. Reflected value is the same whatever the active byte.

MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 17 Communication Protocol * * * If strobe pin is 0 the state is OFF. If strobe pin is released from 0 while state is OFF, the initial OFF period is completed. Whenever is the change of duration of one state due to STROBE pin level or a message being received, this has no influence on the timing of the following states (A, B, or OFF). 10.4 Standby: LVD Mode The SPI is deselected. Nothing is sent and all incoming data are ignored until CONFB and SEB go low to switch back to configuration mode. 11 Communication Protocol 11.1 Manchester Coding Description The MC33596 data manager is able to decode Manchester coded messages. For other codings, the data manager should be disabled (DME=0) for RAW data to be available on MOSI. Manchester coding is defined as follows: data is sent during the first half-bit; and the complement of the data is sent during the second half-bit. 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 ORIGINAL DATA MANCHESTER CODED DATA Figure 7. Example of Manchester Coding The signal average value is constant. This allows clock recovery from the data stream itself. To achieve correct clock recovery, Manchester coded data must have a duty cycle between 47% and 53%. 11.2 Preamble, Identifier, Header, and Message The following description applies if the data manager is enabled (DME = 1). A complete telegram includes the following sequences: a preamble, an identifier (ID), the preamble again, a header, the message, and an end-of-message (EOM). These bit sequences are described below. * Preamble: A preamble is required before the ID and before the header. It enables: -- In the case of OOK modulation, the AGC to settle, and the data slicer reference voltage to settle if DSREF = 1 -- In the case of FSK modulation, the data slicer reference voltage to settle -- Clock recovery The preamble content must be defined carefully, to ensure that it will not be decoded as the ID or the header. Figure 8 defines the preamble in OOK and FSK modulation. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 18 Freescale Semiconductor Communication Protocol * * ID: The ID allows selection of the correct device in an RF transmission, as the content has been loaded previously in the ID register. Its length is variable, defined by the IDL[1:0] bits. The complement of the ID is also recognized as the identifier. Header: The header specifies the beginning of the message, as it is compared with the HEADER register. Its length is variable, defined by the HDL[1:0] bits. The complement of the header is also recognized as the header, in this case, output data are complemented. The ID and the header are sent at the same data rate as data. Message: Data must follow the header, with no delay. EOM: The message is completed with an end-of-message, consisting of two consecutive NRZ ones or zeroes (i.e., a Manchester code violation). Even in the case of FSK modulation, data must conclude with an EOM, and not simply by stopping the RF telegram. * * * Figure 9 shows a complete message comprising a 6-bit ID and a 4-bit header, followed by two data bits.

Complete Message Example MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 19 Communication Protocol NOTE It is possible to build a tone to form the detection sequence by programming the ID register with a full sequence of ones or zeroes. In this case, the header (or its complement) must not be found in this tone (i.e., it must not be a full sequence of ones or zeroes). 11.3 Message Protocol When the strobe oscillator is enabled (SOE = 1), the receiver is continuously on/off cycling. The ID must be recognized for the receiver to stay on. Consequently, the transmitted ID burst must be long enough to include two consecutive receiver On cycles. When the strobe oscillator is not enabled (SOE = 0), these timing constraints must be respected by the external control applied to pin STROBE.

Receiver Usable Window 12 Data Manager In receive mode, Manchester coded data can be processed internally by the data manager. After decoding, the data are output on the digital interface, in SPI format. This minimizes the load on the MCU. The data manager, when enabled (DME = 1), has five purposes: * ID detection: The received identifier is compared with the identifier stored in the ID register. * Header recognition: The received header is compared with the one stored in the HEADER register. * Clock recovery: The clock is recovered during reception of the preamble and is computed from the shortest received pulse. During the reception of the telegram, the recovered clock is constantly updated to the data rate of the incoming signal. * Output data and recovered clock on digital interface: See Section 14.1, "Receive Mode." * End-of-message detection: An EOM consists of two consecutive NRZ ones or zeroes.

If the internal timer is selected (SOE = 1), MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 21 Receiver On/Off Control * * Off time is clocked by the strobe oscillator, On time is clocked by the crystal oscillator, enabling accurate control of the on time and, therefore, the current consumption of the whole system. Each time is defined with the associated value found in the RXONOFF register. * On time = RON[3:0] x 512 x Tdigclk (see Table 17; begins after the crystal oscillator has started), * Off time = receiver OFF time = N x TStrobe + MIN (TStrobe / 2, receiver On time), with N decoded from ROFF[2:0] (see Table 18). The strobe oscillator is a relaxation oscillator in which an external capacitor C3 is charged by an internal current source (see Figure 43). When the threshold is reached, C3 is discharged and the cycle restarts. The strobe frequency is FStrobe = 1/TStrobe with TStrobe = 106 x C3. In receive mode, setting the STROBE pin to VCCIO at any time forces the circuit on. As VCCIO is above the oscillator threshold voltage, the condition on which the STROBE pin is set to VCCIO is detected internally, and the oscillator pulldown circuitry is disabled. This limits the current consumption. After a strobe forced at "1", the external driver should pass via a "0" state to discharge the capacitor before going to high impedance state (otherwise, the ON time would last a long time after the driver release). When the strobe oscillator is running (i.e., during an off time), forcing the STROBE pin to VGND stops the strobe clock and, therefore, maintains the circuit off. Figure 13 shows the associated timings.

Receiver On/Off Sequence MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 22 Freescale Semiconductor Communication in Receive Mode 14 Communication in Receive Mode 14.1 Receive Mode The MC33596 is master and drives the digital interface in one of two ways, depending on the selection of the data manager. 1. DME = 1: The data manager is enabled. The SPI is master. The MC33596 sends the recovered clock on SCLK and the received data on the MOSI line. Data are valid on falling edges of SCLK. If an entire number of bytes is received, the data manager may add an extra byte. The content of this extra byte is random. If the data received do not fill an entire number of bytes, the data manager will fill the last byte randomly. Figure 14 shows a typical transfer.

Typical Transfer in Receive Mode with Data Manager 2. DME = 0: The data manager is disabled. The SPI is deselected. Raw data are sent directly on the MOSI line, while SCLK remains at the low level. 15 Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) 15.1 Module Description In receive mode, a received signal strength indicator can be activated by setting bit RSSIE. The input signal is measured at two different points in the receiver chain by two different means, as follows. * At the IF filter output, a progressive compression logarithmic amplifier measures the input signal, ranging from the sensitivity level up to -50 dBm. * At the LNA output, the LNA AGC control voltage is used to monitor input signals in the range -50 dBm to -20 dBm. Therefore, the logarithmic amplifier provides information relative to the in-band signal, whereas the LNA AGC voltage senses the input signal over a wider band. The RSSI information given by the logarithmic amplifier is available in: * Analog form on pin RSSIOUT * Digital form in the four least significant bits of the status register RSSI MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 23 Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) The information from the LNA AGC is available in digital form in the four most significant bits of status register RSSI. The whole content of status register RSSI provides 2 x 4 bits of RSSI information about the incoming signal (see Section 16.6, "RSSI Register"). Figure 15 shows a simplified block diagram of the RSSI function. The quasi peak detector (D1, R1, C1) has a charge time of about 20 s to avoid sensitivity to spikes. R2 controls the decay time constant of about 5 ms to allow efficient smoothing of the OOK modulated signal at low data rates. This time constant is useful in continuous mode when S2 is permanently closed. To allow high-speed RSSI updating in peak pulse measurement, a discharge circuit (S1) is required to reset the measured voltage and to allow new peak detection. RSSI Register LNA AGC Out IF Filter Output ADC MSB LSB S2 D1 R1 RSSIOUT C1 R2 S1 C2 Figure 15. RSSI Simplified Block Diagram S2 is used to sample the RSSI voltage to allow peak pulse measurement (S2 used as sample and hold), or to allow continuous transparent measurement (S2 continuously closed). The 4-bit analog-to-digital convertor (ADC) is based on a flash architecture. The conversion time is 16 x Tdiglck. As a single convertor is used for the two analog signals, the RSSI register content is updated on a 32 x Tdigclk timebase. If RSSIE is reset, the whole RSSI module is switched off, reducing the current consumption. The output buffer connected to RSSIOUT is set to high impedance. 15.2 Operation Two modes of operation are available: sample mode and continuous mode. 15.2.1 Sample Mode Sample mode allows the peak power of a specific pulse in an incoming frame to be measured. The quasi peak detector is reset by closing S1. After 7 x Tdigclk, S1 is released. S2 is closed when RSSIC is set high. On the falling edge of RSSIC, S2 is opened. The voltage on RSSIOUT is sampled and held. The last RSSI conversion results are stored in the RSSI register and no further conversion is done. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 24 Freescale Semiconductor Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) The RSSI register is updated every 32 x Tdigclk. Therefore, the minimum duration of the high pulse on RSSIC is 32 x Tdigclk.

RSSI Operation in Sample Mode MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 25 Configuration, Command, and Status Registers 15.2.2 Continuous Mode Continuous mode is used to make a peak measurement on an incoming frame, without having to select a specific pulse to be measured. The quasi peak detector is reset by closing S1. After 7 x Tdigclk, S1 is opened. S2 is closed when RSSIC is set high. As long as RSSIC is kept high, S2 is closed, and RSSIOUT follows the peak value with a decay time constant of 5 ms. The ADC runs continuously, and continually updates the RSSI register. Thus, reading this register gives the most recent conversion value, prior to the register being read. The minimum duration of the high pulse on CONFB is 32 x Tdigclk.

RSSI Operation in Continuous Mode 16 Configuration, Command, and Status Registers This section discusses the internal registers, which are composed of two classes of bits. * Configuration and command bits allow the MC33596 to operate in a suitable configuration. * Status bits report the current state of the system. All registers can be accessed by the SPI; these registers are described below. At power-on, the POR resets all registers to a known value (in the shaded rows in the following tables). This defines the MC33596's default configuration. After POR, CONFB forces a low level. Therefore, an external pullup resistor is required to avoid entering configuration mode.

MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 33 Controller 17 Controller This section describes how the MC33596 controller executes sequences of operations, relative to the selected mode. The controller is a finite state machine, clocked at Tdigclk. An overview is presented in Figure 27 (note that some branches refer to other diagrams that provide more detailed information). There are three different modes: configuration, receive, and standby/LVD. Each mode is exclusive and can be entered in different ways, as follows. * External signal: CONFB for configuration mode, * External signal and configuration bits: CONFB and TRXE for all other modes, * External signal and internal conditions: see Figure 31 and Figure 33 for information on how to enter standby/LVD mode. After a POR, the circuit is in state 60 (see Figure 27) and configuration registers' content is set to the reset value. At any time, a low level applied to CONFB forces the finite state machine into state 1, whatever the current state. This is not always shown in state diagrams, but must always be considered. Active Bank Change (A to B or B to A) Configuration Mode Configuration Mode SPI Master CONFB = 1, TRXE = 0, and STROBE = 0 State 1 CONFB = 1, TRXE = 1, and STROBE = 0 ...and DME = 1 ...and SOE = 0 ...and SOE = 1 ...and SOE = 0 SPI Deselected SPI Slave Standby/LVD Mode State 60 CONFB = 0 Power-on Reset ...and DME = 0 ...and SOE = 1 Receive Mode See Figure 30 See Figure 31 See Figure 32 See Figure 33 Figure 27. State Machine Overview 17.1 Configuration Mode The configuration mode is selected by the microcontroller unit (MCU) to write to the internal registers (to configure the system) or to read them. In this mode, the SPI is a slave. The analog parts (receiver) remain in the state (on, off) they were in prior to entering configuration mode, until a new configuration changes them. In configuration mode, data can be neither sent nor received. As long as a low level is applied to CONFB, the circuit stays in State 1, the only state in this mode. Figure 28 and Figure 29 describe the two valid sequences for enabling a correct transition from Standby/LVD mode to configuration mode. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 34 Freescale Semiconductor Controller STROBE CONFB SPI Startup Time SEB Figure 28. First Valid Sequence from Standby/LVD Mode to Configuration Mode STROBE CONFB SPI Startup Time 10 s (Maximum) SEB Figure 29. Second Valid Sequence from Standby/LVD Mode to Configuration Mode 17.2 Receive Mode The receiver is either waiting for an RF telegram, or is receiving one. Four different processes are possible, as determined by the values of the DME and SOE bits. A state diagram describes the sequence of operations in each case. NOTE If the STROBE pin is tied to a high level before switching to receive mode, the receiver does not go through an off or standby state. 17.2.1 Data Manager Disabled and Strobe Oscillator Enabled Raw received data are sent directly on the MOSI line. Figure 30 shows the state diagram. SPI Deselected STROBE = 0 STROBE = 0 STROBE = 1 State 0 Off Off Counter = ROFF[2:0] or STROBE = 1 On Counter = RON[3:0] and STROBE 1 State 0b On Raw Data on MOSI Figure 30. Receive Mode, DME = 0, SOIE = 1 State 0: The receiver is off, but the strobe oscillator and the off counter are running. Forcing the STROBE pin low maintains the system in this state. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 Freescale Semiconductor 35 Controller State 0b: The receiver is kept on by the STROBE pin or the on counter. Raw data are output on the MOSI line. For all states: At any time, a low level applied to CONFB forces the state machine to state 1. 17.2.2 Data Manager Disabled and Strobe Pin Control Raw received data are sent directly on the MOSI line. Figure 31 shows the state diagram. SPI Deselected STROBE = 0 STROBE = 1 State 5 Standby/LVD STROBE = 1 STROBE = 0 State 5b On Raw Data on MOSI Figure 31. Receive Mode, DME = 0, SOE = 0 State 5: The receiver is in standby/LVD mode. For further information, see Section 17.3, "Standby/LVD Mode." A high level applied to STROBE forces the circuit to state 5b. State 5b: The receiver is kept on by the STROBE pin. Raw data are output on the MOSI line. For all states: At any time, a low level applied to CONFB forces the state machine to state 1. 17.2.3 Data Manager Enabled and Strobe Oscillator Enabled Figure 32 shows the state diagram when the data manager and the strobe oscillator are enabled. in this configuration, the receiver is controlled internally by the strobe oscillator. However, external control via the STROBE pin is still possible, and overrides the strobe oscillator command. State 10: The receiver is off, but the strobe oscillator and the off counter are running. Forcing STROBE pin to the low level maintains the system in this state. State 11: The receiver is waiting for a valid ID. If an ID, or its complement, is detected, the state machine advances to state 12; otherwise, the circuit goes back to state 10 at the end of the RON time, if STROBE1. State 12: An ID or its complement has been detected. The data manager is now waiting for a header or its complement. If neither a header, nor its complement, has been received before a time-out of 256 bits at data rate, the system returns to state 10. State 13: A header, or its complement, has been received. Data and clock signals are output on the SPI port until EOM indicates the end of the data sequence. If the complement of the header has been received, output data are complemented also. MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 36 Freescale Semiconductor Controller When an EOM occurs before the current byte is fully shifted out, dummy bits are inserted until the number of shifted bits is a multiple of 8. For all states: At any time, a low level applied to STROBE forces the circuit to state 10, and a low level applied on CONFB forces the state machine to state 1. SPI Master STROBE = 0 STROBE = 0 State 10 Off STROBE = 1 Off Counter = ROFF[2:0] or STROBE = 1 On Counter = RON[3:0] and STROBE 1 State 11 On Waiting For a Valid ID ID Detected Time Out State 12 On Waiting for a Valid Header EOM Received and STROBE = 1 Header Received State 13 On Output Data and Clock Waiting for End of Message EOM Received and STROBE 1 Figure 32.

In this configuration, the receiver is controlled only externally by the MCU. SPI Master STROBE = 0 SPI Deselected State 20 Standby/LVD STROBE = 1 STROBE = 1 STROBE = 0 State 21 On Waiting For a Valid ID ID Detected STROBE = 0 State 22 On Waiting for a Valid Header EOM Received and STROBE = 1 Header Received State 23 On Output Data and Clock Waiting for End of Message EOM Received and STROBE = 0 Figure 33. Receive Mode, DME = 1, SOE = 0 State 20: The receiver is in standby/LVD mode. For further information, see Section 17.3, "Standby/LVD Mode." A high level applied to STROBE forces the circuit to state 21. State 21: The circuit is waiting for a valid ID. If an ID, or its complement, is detected, the state machine advances to state 22; if not, the state machine will remain in state 21, as long as STROBE is high. State 22: If a header, or its complement, is detected, the state machine advances to state 23. If not, the state machine will remain in state 22, as long as STROBE is high. State 23: A header or its complement has been received; data and clock signals are output on the SPI port until an EOM indicates the end of the data sequence. If the complement of the header has been received, MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 38 Freescale Semiconductor Controller output data are complemented also. When an EOM occurs before the current byte is fully shifted out, dummy bits are inserted until the number of shifted bits is a multiple of 8. For all states: At any time, a low level applied to STROBE puts the circuit into state 20, and a low level applied to CONFB forces the state machine to state 1. 17.3 Standby/LVD Mode Standby/LVD mode allows minimum current consumption to be achieved. Depending upon the value of the LVDE bit, the circuit is in standby mode (state 60) or LVD mode (state 5 and 20). LVDE = 0: The receiver is in standby; consumption is reduced to leakage current (current state after POR). LVDE = 1: The LVD function is enabled; consumption is in the range of tens of microamperes. The only way to exit this mode is to go back to configuration mode by applying a low level to CONFB. 17.4 Transition Time Table 21 details the different times that must be considered for a given transition in the state machine, once the logic conditions for that transition are met. Table 21. Transition Time Definition Transition State x -> y Standby to SPI running, state 60 -> 1 Standby to receiver running, states 5 -> 5b, 20 -> 21 Off to receiver running, states 0 -> 0b, 10 -> 11 Configuration to receiver running, states 1 -> (0b, 5b, 11, 21) Receiver running to configuration mode, state (0b, 5b, 11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23) -> 1, Receiver running to standby mode, state 5b -> 5, (21, 22, 23) -> 20 Receiver running to off mode, state 0b -> 0, (11, 12, 13) -> 10 Crystal Oscillator Startup Time, Parameter 5.10 Receiver Receiver Preamble On-to-Off Time, Parameter 1.12 Time1 PLL Timing Lock time parameter 5.9 Lock time parameter 5.9 0 or lock time parameter 5.1 or lock time parameter 5.9 2 NOTES: 1 See Section 11.2, "Preamble, Identifier, Header, and Message." 2 Depending on the PLL status before entering configuration mode. For example, the transition time from standby to receiver running (FSK modulation, 19.2 kBd, AFFC = 0, data manager enabled) is: 0.6 ms + 50 s + (3 + 1)/19.2k = 970 s.

MC33596 Application Schematic (5 V) 19.1 PCB Design Recommendations Pay attention to the following points and recommendations when designing the layout of the PCB. * Ground Plane -- If you can afford a multilayer PCB, use an internal layer for the ground plane, route power supply and digital signals on the last layer, RF components being located on the first layer. -- Use at least a double-sided PCB. -- Use a large ground plane on the opposite layer. -- If the ground plane must be cut on the opposite layer for routing some signals, maintain continuity with another ground plane on the opposite layer and a lot of via to minimize MC33596 Data Sheet, Rev. 3 50 Freescale Semiconductor 16 Application Schematics * * parasitic inductance. Power Supply, Ground Connection and Decoupling -- Connect each ground pin to the ground plane using a separate via for each signal; do not use common vias. -- Place each decoupling capacitor as close to the corresponding VCC pin as possible (no more than 2-3 mm away). -- Locate the VCCDIG2 decoupling capacitor (C13) directly between VCCDIG2 (pin 14) and GND (pin 16). RF Tracks, Matching Network and Other Components -- Minimize any tracks used for routing RF signals. -- Locate crystal X1 and associated capacitors C15 and C11 close to the MC33596. Avoid loops occurring due to component size and tracks. Avoid routing digital signals in this area. -- Use high frequency coils with high Q values for the frequency of operation (minimum of 15). Validate any change of coil source. NOTE The values indicated for the matching network have been computed and tuned for the the MC33596 RF Modules available for MC33596 evaluation. Matching networks should be retuned if any change is made to the PCB (track width, length or place, or PCB thickness, or component value). Never use, as is, a matching network designed for another PCB.
