nRF2401 is a single-chip radio transceiver for the world wide 2.4 - 2.5 GHz ISM band. The transceiver consists of a fully integrated frequency synthesizer, a power amplifier, a crystal oscillator and a modulator. Output power and frequency channels are easily programmable by use of the 3-wire serial interface. Current consumption is very low, only 10.5mA at an output power of -5dBm and 18mA in receive mode. Built-in Power Down modes makes power saving easily realizable.

6KRFN%XUVW
The ShockBurstTM technology uses on-chip FIFO to clock in data at a low data rate and transmit at a very high rate thus enabling extremely power reduction. When operating the nRF2401 in ShockBurstTM, you gain access to the high data rates (1 Mbps) offered by the 2.4 GHz band without the need of a costly, high-speed micro controller (MCU) for data processing. By putting all high speed signal processing related to RF protocol on-chip, the nRF2401 offers the following benefits: * * * Highly reduced current consumption Lower system cost (facilitates use of less expensive micro controller) Greatly reduced risk of `on-air' collisions due to short transmission time
The nRF2401 can be programmed using a simple 3-wire interface where the data rate is decided by the speed of the micro controller. By allowing the digital part of the application to run at low speed while maximizing the data rate on the RF link, the nRF ShockBurstTM mode reduces the average current consumption in applications considerably. 6KRFN%XUVW SULQFLSOH When the nRF2401 is configured in ShockBurstTM, TX or RX operation is conducted in the following way (10 kbps for the example only).

Q5) 6KRFN%XUVW 5HFHLYH MCU interface pins: CE, DR1, CLK1 and DATA (one RX channel receive) 1. Correct address and size of payload of incoming RF packages are set when nRF2401 is configured to ShockBurstTM RX. 2. To activate RX, set CE high. 3. After 200 s settling, nRF2401 is monitoring the air for incoming communication. 4. When a valid package has been received (correct address and CRC found), nRF2401 removes the preamble, address and CRC bits. 5. nRF2401 then notifies (interrupts) the MCU by setting the DR1 pin high. 6. MCU may (or may not) set the CE low to disable the RF front end (low current mode). 7. The MCU will clock out just the payload data at a suitable rate (ex. 10 kbps). 8. When all payload data is retrieved nRF2401 sets DR1 low again, and is ready for new incoming data package if CE is kept high during data download. If the CE was set low, a new start up sequence can begin, see Figure 16.

The nRF2401 RF front end is now immediately activated, and after 200 s settling time, data will modulate the carrier directly. 3. All RF protocol parts must hence be implemented in MCU firmware (preamble, address and CRC). 'LUHFW 0RGH 5HFHLYH MCU interface pins: CE, CLK1, and DATA 1. Once the nRF2401 is configured and powered up (CE high) in direct RX mode, DATA will start to toggle due to noise present on the air. 2. CLK1 will also start to toggle as nRF2401 is trying to lock on to the incoming data stream. 3. Once a valid preamble arrives, CLK1 and DATA will lock on to the incoming signal and the RF package will appear at the DATA pin with the same speed as it is transmitted. 4. To enable the demodulator to re-generate the clock, the preamble must be 8 bits toggling hi-low, starting with low if the first data bit low. 5. In this mode no data ready (DR) signals is available. Address and checksum verification must also be done in the receiving MC.

In both ShockBurstTM & Direct modes the nRF2401 can facilitate simultaneous reception of two parallel independent frequency channels at the maximum data rate. This means: * nRF2401 can receive data from two 1 Mbps transmitters (ex: nRF2401 or nRF2402) 8 MHz (8 frequency channels) apart through one antenna interface. * The output from the two data channels is fed to two separate MCU interfaces. * Data channel 1: CLK1, DATA, and DR1 * Data channel 2: CLK2, DOUT2, and DR2 * DR1 and DR2 are available only in ShockBurstTM. The nRF2401 DuoCeiverTM technology provides 2 separate dedicated data channels for RX and replaces the need for two, stand alone receiver systems. Q5) 7[5[ Q5) 7[5[
Q5) 7[5[
Figure 8 Simultaneous 2 channel receive on nRF2401 There is one absolute requirement for using the second data channel. For the nRF2401 to be able to receive at the second data channel the frequency channel must be 8MHz higher than the frequency of data channel 1. The nRF2401 must be programmed to receive at the frequency of data channel 1. No time multiplexing is used in nRF2401 to fulfil this function. In direct mode the MCU must be able to handle two simultaneously incoming data packets if it is not multiplexing between the two data channels. In ShockBurstTM it is possible for the MCU to clock out one data channel at a time while data on the other data channel waits for MCU availability, without any lost data packets, and by doing so reduce the needed performance of the MCU.

Stand by mode is used to minimize average current consumption while maintaining short start up times. In this mode, part of the crystal oscillator is active. Current consumption is dependent on crystal frequency (Ex: 12 A @ 4 MHz, 32 A @ 16 MHz). The configuration word content is maintained during stand by.

All configuration of the nRF2401 is done via a 3-wire interface to a single configuration register. The configuration word can be up to 15 bytes long for ShockBurstTM use and up to 2 bytes long for direct mode.
&RQILJXUDWLRQ IRU 6KRFN%XUVW RSHUDWLRQ
The configuration word in ShockBurstTM enables the nRF2401 to handle the RF protocol. Once the protocol is completed and loaded into nRF2401 only one byte, bit[7:0], needs to be updated during actual operation. The configuration blocks dedicated to ShockBurstTM is as follows: * Payload section width: Specifies the number of payload bits in a RF package. This enables the nRF2401 to distinguish between payload data and the CRC bytes in a received package. * Address width: Sets the number of bits used for address in the RF package. This enables the nRF2401 to distinguish between address and payload data. * Address (RX Channel 1 and 2): Destination address for received data. * CRC: Enables nRF2401 on-chip CRC generation and de-coding. NOTE: These configuration blocks, with the exception of the CRC, are dedicated for the packages that a nRF2401 is to receive. In TX mode, the MCU must generate an address and a payload section that fits the configuration of the nRF2401 that is to receive the data. When using the nRF2401 on-chip CRC feature ensure that CRC is enabled and uses the same length for both the TX and RX devices.

Table 8 Table of configuration words. The configuration word is shifted in MSB first on positive CLK1 edges. New configuration is enabled on the falling edge of CS. NOTE. On the falling edge of CS, the nRF2401 updates the number of bits actually shifted in during the last configuration. Ex: If the nRF2401 is to be configured for 2 channel RX in ShockBurstTM, a total of 120 bits must be shifted in during the first configuration after VDD is applied. Once the wanted protocol, modus and RF channel are set, only one bit (RXEN) is shifted in to switch between RX and TX.

The ANT1 & ANT2 output pins provide a balanced RF output to the antenna. The pins must have a DC path to VDD, either via a RF choke or via the center point in a dipole antenna. The load impedance seen between the ANT1/ANT2 outputs should be in the range 200-700. A de-embedded load impedance i.e. impedance seen at drain terminals of the output transistors of 400 is recommended for maximum output power (0dBm). Lower load impedance (for instance 50 ) can be obtained by fitting a simple matching network.

Table 21 Crystal specification of the nRF2401 To achieve a crystal oscillator solution with low power consumption and fast start-up time, it is recommended to specify the crystal with a low value of crystal load capacitance. Specifying CL=12pF is OK, but it is possible to use up to 16pF. Specifying a lower value of crystal parallel equivalent capacitance, Co is also good, but this can increase the price of the crystal itself. Typically Co=1.5pF at a crystal specified for Co_max=7.0pF.

A well-designed PCB is necessary to achieve good RF performance. Keep in mind that a poor layout may lead to loss of performance, or even functionality, if due care is not taken. A fully qualified RF-layout for the nRF2401 and its surrounding components, including matching networks, can be downloaded from ZZZQYOVLQR. A PCB with a minimum of two layers including a ground plane is recommended for optimum performance. The nRF2401 DC supply voltage should be decoupled as close as possible to the VDD pins with high performance RF capacitors, see Table 22. It is preferable to mount a large surface mount capacitor (e.g. 4.7F tantalum) in parallel with the smaller value capacitors. The nRF2401 supply voltage should be filtered and routed separately from the supply voltages of any digital circuitry. Long power supply lines on the PCB should be avoided. All device grounds, VDD connections and VDD bypass capacitors must be connected as close as possible to the nRF2401 IC. For a PCB with a topside RF ground plane, the VSS pins should be connected directly to the ground plane. For a PCB with a bottom ground plane, the best technique is to have via holes as close as possible to the VSS pads. One via hole should be used for each VSS pin. Full swing digital data or control signals should not be routed close to the crystal or the power supply lines.
