sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 2. functional description the RFM24W module is high-performance, low-current, wireless ism transceivers that cover the sub-ghz bands. the wide operating voltage range of 1.8?3.6 v and low current consumption make the RFM24W an ideal solution for battery powered applications. the RFM24W operates as a time division duplexing (tdd) transceiver where the device alternately transmits and receives data pa ckets. the device uses a single-conversion mixer to downconvert the 2/4-level fsk/gfsk or ook/ask modulated re ceive signal to a low if frequency. following a programmable gain amplifier (pga) the signal is conv erted to the digital domain by a high performance ? adc allowing filtering, demodulation, slicing, and packet handling to be performed in the built-in dsp increasing the receiver?s performance and flexibility versus analog bas ed architectures. the demodulated signal is output to the system mcu through a programmable gpio or via the standard spi bus by reading the 64-byte rx fifo. a single high precision local oscillator (lo) is used fo r both transmit and receive modes since the transmitter and receiver do not operate at the same time. the lo is generated by an integrated vco and ? fractional-n pll synthesizer. the synthesizer is designed to support configurable data rates from 0.123 kbps to 1 mbps. the RFM24W operates in the frequency bands of 142?175, 283?350, 425?525, and 850?1050 mhz with a maximum accuracy of 57.22 hz frequency accuracy. the transmit fsk data is modulated directly into the ? data stream and can be shaped by a gaussian low-pass filter to reduce unwanted spectral content. the RFM24W is designed to support single coin cell operation with current consumption below 19 ma for +10 dbm output power. two match topologies are available for the RFM24W, class-e and switched-current. class-e matching provides optimal current consumption, while switched-current matching demonstrates the best performance over varying battery voltage with slightly higher current consumption. the pa is single-ended to allow for easy antenna matching and low bom cost. the pa incorporates automatic ramp-up and ramp-down control to reduce unwanted spectral spreading. the rf m24w supports frequency hopping, tx/rx switch control, and antenna diversity switch control to extend the link range and improve performance. built-in antenna diversity and support for frequency hopping can be used to further extend range and enhance performance. antenna diversity is completely integrated into the RFM24W and can improve the system link budget by 8?10 db, resulting in substantial range increases under adverse environmental conditions. a highly configurable packet handler allows for autonomous encoding/decoding of nearly any packet structure. additional system features, such as an automatic wake-up timer, low battery detector, 64 byte tx/rx fifos, and preamble detection, reduce overall current consumption and allows for the use of lowe r-cost system mcus. an integrated temperature sensor, power-on-reset (por), and gpios further reduce overall system cost and size. the RFM24W is designed to work with an mcu, crystal, and a few passives to create a very low-cost system. 13 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 3. controller interface 3.1. serial periph eral interface (spi) the RFM24W communicates with the host mcu over a stan dard 4-wire serial peripheral interface (spi): sclk, sdi, sdo, and nsel. the spi interface is designed to operate at a maximum of 10 mhz. the spi timing parameters are demonstrated in table 8. the host mcu writes data over the sdi pin and can read data from the device on the sdo output pin. figure 3 demonstrates an spi write command. the nsel pin should go low to initiate the spi command. the first byte of sdi data will be one of the firmware commands followed by n bytes of parameter data which will be variable depending on the specific command. the rising edges of sclk should be aligned with the center of the sdi data. table 8. serial interface timing parameters symbol

mcu which controls all the internal functions of the radio. for spi read commands a typical mcu flow of checking clear-to-send (cts) is used to make sure the internal mcu has executed the command and prepared the data to be output over the sdo pin. figure 4 demonstrates the general flow of an spi read command. once the cts value reads ffh then the read data is ready to be clocked out to the host mcu. the typical time for a valid ffh cts reading is 20 s. figure 5 demonstrates the remaining read cycle after cts is set to ffh. the internal mcu will clock out the sdo data on the negative edge so the host mcu should process the sdo data on the rising edge of sclk. 14 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W firmware flow send

registers that can be read immediately without the requirement to monitor and check cts. there are four fast response registers that can be programmed for a specific function. the fast response registers can be read through api commands, 0x51 for fast response a, 0x53 for fast response b, 0x55 for fast response c, and 0x57 for fast response d. the fast response register s can be configured by the ?frr_ctl_x_mode? properties. the fast response registers may be read in a burst fashion. after the initial 16 clock cycles, each additional 8 clock cycles will clock out the content s of the next fast response regi ster in a circular fashion 3.3. operating modes and timing there are four primary states in the si446x radio state machine: shutdown, idle, tx, and rx (see figure 6). the shutdown state completely shuts down the radio to minimize current consumption. there are five different configurations/options for the idle state which can be sele cted to optimize the chip to the applications needs. api commands ?start rx", ?start tx?, and ?change state? control the operating mode/state with the exception of shutdown which is controlled by sdn, pin 1. table 9 shows each of the operating modes with the time required to reach either rx or tx mode as well as the current consumption of each mode. figure 6. state machine diagram table 9. operating modes response time and current

demonstrates the timing and current consumption for each mode associated with commanding the chip from standby to tx state. the most advantageous state to use will depend on the duty cycle of the application or how often the pa rt is in either rx or tx state. in most applications the utilization of the standby stat e will be most advantageous for battery life but for very low duty cycle applications shutdown will have an advantage. for the fastest timing the next state can be selected in the ?start rx? or ?start tx? api commands to minimize spi transactions and internal mcu

st ate of the device with nominally less than 20 na of current consumption. the shutdown state may be entered by driving the sdn pin (pin 1) high. the sdn pin should be held low in all states except the shutdown state. in the shutdown state, the contents of the registers are lost and there is no spi access. when coming out of the shutdown state a power on reset (por) will be initiated along with the internal calibrations. 3.3.2. idle states there are five different modes in the idle state which may be commanded. all modes have a tradeoff between current consumption and response time to tx/rx mode. this tradeoff is shown in table 9. after the por event, swreset, or exiting from the shutdown state the chip will default to the idle-ready mode. 3.3.3. standby mode standby mode has the lowest current consumption of the fi ve idle states. in this state the register values are maintained with all other blocks disabled. the spi is ac cessible during this mode but an spi event will enable an internal boot oscillator and automatically move the part to spi active mode. after an spi event the host will need to re-command the device back to standby mode through the ?change state? api command to achieve the 100 na current consumption. if an interrupt has occurred (i.e., the nirq pin = 0) the interrupt registers must be read to achieve the minimum current consumption of this mode. 3.3.4. sleep mode in sleep mode the wake-up-timer and a 32 khz clock sour ce are enabled. the source of the 32 khz clock can either be an internal 32 khz rc oscillator which is periodica lly calibrated or a 32 khz oscillator using an external xtal.the spi is accessible during this mode but an spi event will enable an internal boot oscillator and automatically move the part to spi active mode. afte r an spi event the host will need to re-command the device back to sleep. if an interrupt has occurred (i.e., the nirq pin = 0) the interrupt regi sters must be read to achieve the minimum current consumption of this mode. 3.3.5. spi active mode in spi active mode the spi and a boot up oscillator are enabled. after spi transactions during either standby or sleep mode the device will not automatically return to these modes. a ?change state? api command will be required to return to either the standby or sleep modes. 3.3.6. ready mode ready mode is designed to give a fast transition time to tx or rx state with reasonable current consumption. in this mode the crystal oscillator remains enabled reducing th e time required to switch to tx or rx mode by eliminating the crystal start-up time. 3.3.7. tx state the tx state may be entered from any of the idle modes by using the ?start tx? or ?change state? api command. a built-in sequencer takes care of all the actions required to transition between states from enabling the crystal oscillator to ramping up the pa. the following sequence of events will occur automatically when going from standby mode to tx mode. 1. enable the digital ldo and the analog ldos. 2. start up crystal oscillator and wait until ready (controlled by an internal timer). 3. enable pll. 4. calibrate vco/pll. 5. wait until pll settles to required transmit frequency (controlled by an internal timer). 6. activate power amplifier and wait until power ramp ing is completed (controlled by an internal timer). 7. transmit packet. steps in this sequence may be eliminated depending on which idle mode the chip is configured to prior to commanding to tx. by default, the vco and pll are calibrat ed every time the pll is enabled. when the ?start tx? api command is utilized the next state may be defined to ensure optimal timing and turnaround. 18 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 3.3.8. rx state the rx state may be entered from any of the idle modes by using the ?start rx? or ?change state? api command. a built-in sequencer takes care of all the actions required to transition from one of the idle modes to the rx state. the following sequence of events will occu r automatically to get the chip into rx mode when going from standby mode to rx mode: 1. enable the digital ldo and the analog ldos. 2. start up crystal oscillator and wait until ready (controlled by an internal timer). 3. enable pll. 4. calibrate vco 5. wait until pll settles to required receive frequency (controlled by an internal timer). 6. enable receiver circuits: lna, mixers, and adc. 7. enable receive mode in the digital modem. depending on the configuration of the radio all or some of the following functions will be performed automatically by the digital modem: agc, afc (optional), update status registers, bit synchronizati on, packet handling (optional) including sync word, header check, and crc. similar to the tx state the next state after rx may be defined in the ?start rx? api command. 19 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W .4. application programming interface (api) an application programming interface (api) which the host mcu will communicate with is embedded inside the device. the api is divided into two sections, commands and properties. the commands are used to control the chip and retrieve its status. the properties are general co nfigurations which will change infrequently. the available commands are shown in table 10. table 10. api commands number name description 0x00 nop no operation command 0x01 part_info reports basic information about the device 0x02 power_up boot options and

tx? command is shown in figure 9 as an example. if a property has previously been set or a default configuration is sufficient it is not necessary to write all arguments. for instance if the user wants to command the part to tx state with the default or previous settings for channel[7:0], txcomplete_state[3:0], etc then only the cmd 0x31 needs to be sent. it is not necessary to send the remaining arguments unless it is desired to change these arguments. figure 9. start tx command description 22 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 3.5. interrupts the RFM24W is capable of generating an interrupt signal when certain events occur. the chip notifies the microcontroller that an interrupt event has occurred by setting the nirq output pin low = 0. this interrupt signal will be generated when any one (or more) of the interr upt events (corresponding to the interrupt status bits) occur. the nirq pin will remain low unt il the microcontroller reads the interru pt status register s. the nirq output signal will then be reset until the next change in status is detected. the interrupts sources are grouped into three groups: packet handler, chip status, and modem. the individual interrupts in these groups can be enabled/disabled in the interrupt property registers, 0101, 0102, and 0103. an interrupt must be enabled for it to trigger an event on the nirq pin. the interrupt group must be enabled as well as the individual interrupts in api property 0100. once an interrupt event occurs and the nirq pin is low there are two ways to read and clear the interrupts. all of the interrupts may be read and cleared in the ?get int status? api command. by default all interrupts will be cleared once read. if only specific interrupts want to be read in the fastest possible method the individual interrupt groups (packet handler, chip status, modem) may be read and cleared by the ?get modem status?, ?get ph (packet handler) status, and ?get chip status? api commands. the instantaneous status of a specific function maybe read if the specific interrupt is enabled or disabled. the status results are provided after the interrupts and can be read with the same commands as the interrupts. the fast response registers can also give information about the interrupt groups but reading the fast response registers will not clear the inte rrupt and reset the nirq pin. 23 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 4. modulation and hardware configuration options the RFM24W supports different modulation options and can be used in various configurations to tailor the device to any specific application or legacy system for drop in replacement. the modulation and configuration options are set in api property, modem_mod_type. figure 10. modulation and hardware configuration options 4.1. modulation types the RFM24W supports five different modulation options: gaussian frequency shift keying (gfsk), frequency shift keying (fsk), four level gfsk (4gfsk), four level fsk (4fsk), on-off keying (ook), and amplitude shift keying (ask). minimum shift keying (msk) can al so be created by using gfsk settings. gfsk is the recommended modulation type as it provides the best performance and cleanest modulation spectrum. the modulation type is set by the ?mod_type[2:0]? r egisters in the ?modem_mod_type? api property. a continuous-wave (cw) carrier may also be selected for rf evaluation purposes. the modulation source may also be selected to be a pseudo-random source for evaluation purposes. 4.2. hardware configuration options there are three main methods to transfer rx/tx data from the host mcu to the rf device. there are various other configurations options of these three main methods that will be described in the individual subsections. fifo mode ?utilizes the internal 64byte tx and rx fifo?s. permits use of the internal packet handler. direct mode ?data/data clk are programmed directly onto a gpio but a 101010? preamble is used raw direct mode ?data is programmed directly onto a gpio but a 101010.. preamble is not used. 24 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 4.2.1. fifo mode in fifo mode, the transmit and receive data is stored in integrated fifo register memory. the tx fifo is accessed by writing command 66h followed directly by the data /clk that the host wants to write into the tx fifo. the rx fifo is accessed by writing command 77h followe d by the number of clock cy cles of data the host would like to read out of the rx fifo. the rx data will be clocked out onto the sdo pin. in tx mode if the packet handler is enabled, the data by tes stored in fifo memory are "packaged" together with other fields and bytes of information to construct the fina l transmit packet structure. these other potential fields include the preamble, sync word, header, crc checksum, et c. the configuration of th e packet structure in tx mode is determined by the automatic packet handler (if en abled), in conjunction with a variety of packet handler properties. if the automatic packet handler is disabled, the entire desired packet structure should be loaded into fifo memory; no other fields (such as preamble or sync word will be automat ically added to the bytes stored in fifo memory). for further information on the configuration of the fifos for a specific application or packet size, see "6. data handling and packet handler" on page 29. in rx mode, only the bytes of the received packet structure that are considered to be "data bytes" are stored in fifo memory. which bytes of the received packet are considered "data bytes" is determined by the automatic pack et handler (if enabled), in conjunction with the packet handler configuration. if the automatic packet handler is disabled, all bytes following the sync word are considered data bytes and are stored in fifo memory. thus, even if automatic packet handling operation is not desired, the preamble detection threshold and sync wo rd still need to be programmed so that the rx modem knows when to start filling data into the fifo. when the fi fo is being used in rx mode, all of the received data may still be observed directly (in realtime ) by properly programming a gpio pin as the rxdata output pin; this can be quite useful during application development. when in fifo mode, the chip will automatically exit the tx or rx state when either the ipksent or ipkvalid interrupt occurs. the chip will return to the idle state programmed in the argument of the ?start tx? or ?start rx? api command, txcomplete_state[3:0] or rxcomplete_state[3:0]. for example, the chip may be placed into tx mode by sending the ?start tx? command and by writing the 30h to the txcomplete_sta te[3:0] argument. the chip will transmit all of the contents of the fifo and the ipksent interrupt will occur. when this event occurs, the chip will return to the ready state as defined by txcomplete_state[3:0] = 30h. 4.2.2. direct mode for legacy systems that perform packet handling within the host mcu or other baseband chip, it may not be desirable to use the fifo. for this scenario, a direct mode is provided which bypasses the fifos entirely. in tx direct mode, the tx modulation data is applied to an input pin of the chip and processed in "real time" (i.e., not stored in a register for transmission at a later time). any of the gpio may be configured for use as the tx data input function. furthermore, an additional pin may be required for a tx clock output function if gfsk modulation is desired (only the tx data input pin is required for fsk). to achieve direct mode the gpio must be configured in ?gpio_pin_cfg? api command as well as the ?modem_mod_type? api property. for gfsk ?tx_di rect_mode_type? must be set to synchronous. for ask or fsk direct mode type should be set to asynchronous. the mod_source[1:0] should be set to 01h for are all direct mode configurations. in rx direct mode, the rx da ta and rx clock can be programmed for direct (real-time) output to gpio pins. the microcontroller may then process the rx data without using the fifo or packet handler functions of the rfic. in rx direct mode, the chip must still acquire bit timing during the preamble, and thus the preamble detection threshold must still be programmed. once the preamble is detected, certain bit timing functions within the rx modem change their operation for optimized performance over the remainder of the packet. it is not required that a sync word be present in the packet in rx direct mode; howeve r, if the sync word is absent then the skipsyn bit must be set, or else the bit timing and tracking function within th e rx modem will not be configured for optimum performance. 4.2.3. raw direct mode the only difference between raw direct mode and direct mode is the structure of the packet being used. in a conventional packet structure there is a 101010 preamble pattern which the internal modem uses to perform such functions as clock recovery. many legacy applications do not have a 101010 preamble pattern so a special demodulator has been designed into the si446x family to handle these types of application scenarios. the raw mode demodulator will result in slightly less perfor mance than the standard demodulator with a conventional preamble pattern but it will still provide glitch-less, stab le, low jitter data. to achieve raw mode the device should be configured as described in ?4.2.2. direct mode? and also the raw mode options should be selected in the calculator api. 25 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 5. internal functional blocks the following sections provide an overview to the key internal blocks and features. 5.1. rx chain the internal low-noise amplifier (lna) is designed to be a wide-band lna that can be matched with three external discrete components to cover any common range of frequencies in the sub-ghz band. the lna has extremely low noise to suppress the noise of the following stages to achi eve optimal sensitivity so no external gain or front-end modules are necessary. the lna has gain control which is controlled by the internal automatic gain control (agc) algorithm. the lna is followed by an i-q mixer, filt er, programmable gain amplifier (pga), and adc. the i-q mixers downconvert the signal to an intermediate frequency. the pga then boosts the gain to be within dynamic range of the adc. the adc rejects out of band blockers and converts the signal to the digital domain where filtering, demodulation, and processing is performed. peak detectors are integrated at the output of the lna and pga for use in the agc algorithm. 5.2. rx modem using high-performance adcs allows channel filtering, image rejection, and demodulation to be performed in the digital domain which allows for large amounts of flexibility to optimize the device for a particular application. the digital modem performs the following functions: channel selection filter tx modulation rx demodulation automatic gain control (agc) preamble detection invalid preamble detection radio signal strength indicator (rssi) automatic frequency compensation (afc) packet handling including ezmac? features cyclic redundancy check (crc) the digital channel filter and demodulator are optimized for ultra low power consumption and are highly configurable. supported modulation types are gfsk, fsk, 4gfsk, 4fsk, ask, and ook. the channel filter can be configured to support bandwidths ranging from 850 down to 1.1 khz. a large variety of data rates are supported ranging from 0.123 up to 1 mbps. the configurable preamble detector is used to improve the reliability of the sync-word detection. the sync-word detector is only enabled when a valid preamble is detected, significantly reducing the probability of false detection. the received signal strength indicator (rssi) provide s a measure of the signal strength received on the tuned channel. the resolution of the rssi is 0.5 db. this high re solution rssi enables accurate channel power measurements for clear channel assessment (cca), carrier sense (cs), and listen before talk (lbt) functionality. the extensive programmability of the packet header allo ws for advanced packet filtering which in turn enables a mix of broadcast, group, and point-to-point communication. a wireless communication channel can be corrupted by noise and interference, and it is therefore important to know if the received data is free of errors. a cyclic redundancy check (crc) is used to detect the presence of erroneous bits in each packet. a crc is computed and appended at the end of each transmitted packet and verified by the receiver to confirm that no errors have occurred. the packet handler and crc can significantly reduce the load on the system microcontroller allowing for a simpler and cheaper microcontroller. the digital modem includes the tx modulator which converts the tx data bits into the corresponding stream of digital modulation values to be summed with the fractional input to the sigma-delta modulator. this modulation approach results in highly accurate resolution of the frequency deviation. a gaussian filter is implemented to support gfsk and 4gfsk, considerably reducing the energy in the adjacent channels. the default bandwidth-time product (bt) is 0.5 for all programmed data rates, but it may be adjusted to other values. 26 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 5.2.1. automatic gain control (agc) the agc algorithm is implemented digitally using an advanced control loop optimized for fast response time. the agc occurs within a single bit or in less than 2 s. peak detectors at the output of the lna and pga allow for optimal adjustment of the lna gain and pga gain to optim ize im3, selectivity, and sensitivity performance. 5.2.2. auto frequency correction (afc) frequency mistuning caused by crystal inaccuracies ca n be compensated by enabling the digital automatic frequency control (afc) in receive mode. there are two types of integrated frequency compensation, modem frequency compensation, and afc by adjusting the pll frequency. with afc disabled the modem compensation can correct for frequency offsets up to 0.25 times the if bandwidth. when the afc is enabled, the received signal will be centered in the pass-band of the if filter, providi ng optimal sensitivity and selectivity over a wider range of frequency offsets up to 0.35 times the if bandwidth. when afc is enabled, the preamble length needs to be long enough to settle the afc. in general, one byte of preamble is sufficient to settle the afc. 5.2.3. image rejection and calibration since the receiver utilizes a low-if architecture the selectivity will be affected by the image frequency. the if frequency is 468.75khz and the image frequency will be at 937.5khz below the rf frequency. the native image rejection of the RFM24W is 35db. the calibration is perfor med during the initial cold boot and does not require an external signal source. also available in the si4464/63 is t he option to shift the if frequency. with this option the if frequency can be shifted to the adjacent channel putting the image frequency in the alternate channel. 5.2.4. received signal strength indicator the received signal strength indicator (rssi) is an estima te of the signal strength in the channel to which the receiver is tuned. the rssi measurement is done after the channel filter so it is only a measurement of the in-band signal power, desired or undesired. there are multiple options for reading the rssi which are configured in ?modem_rssi_control?. the rssi can be set to update every bit or averaged over a four bit period. a latched version of the rssi may be saved and read after the packet. the current rssi value or latched rssi value are read by readying the ?get_modem_status? api command. the rssi value can also be programmed into one of the fast response registers. clear channel assessment (cca) may also be performed by programming an rssi threshold in ?modem_rssi_thresh? and enabling this interrupt or programming a gpio for this function. to minimize the amount of time associated with reading the rssi for frequency hopping applications automatic hop control is available based on an rssi threshold. automatic hop features are available to hop based on the availability of preamble or not, see the section for fast frequency hopping for more details on this feature. 27 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 5.3. synthesizer an integrated sigma delta ( ? ) fractional-n pll synthesizer capable of operating over the bands from 142?175, 283-350mhz, 425?525, and 850?1050 mhz. using a ? synthesizer has many advantages; it provides flexibility in choosing data rate, deviation, channel frequency, and channel spacing. the transmit modulation is applied directly to the loop in the digital domain through the fractional di vider which results in very precise accuracy and control over the transmit deviation. the frequency resolution in the 850?1050 mhz band is 57.22 hz with more resolution in the other bands. the nominal reference frequency to the pll is 30 mhz but any xtal frequency from 25mhz to 32mhz may be used. the configuration calculator will automatically account for the xtal frequency being used. the pll utilizes a differential lc vco, with integrated on -chip inductors. the output of the vco is followed by a configurable divider which will divide down the signal to the desired output frequency band.

hopping 5.4. transmitter (tx) the RFM24W is designed to supply +10dbm output power for less than 20ma for applications which require operation from a single coin cell battery. the RFM24W can also operate with either class-e or switched current matching. all pa options are single-ended to allow for easy antenna matching and low bom cost. automatic ramp-up and ramp-down is automatically performed to reduce unwanted spectral spreading. 5.5. crystal oscillator the RFM24W includes an integrated crystal oscillator with a fast start-up time of less than 250 s. the design is differential with the required crystal load capacitance integrated on-chip to minimize the number of external components. by default, all that is required off-chip is t he crystal. the default crystal is 30mhz but the circuit is designed to handle any xtal from 25 to 32 mhz. if a crystal different than 30mhz is used the ?global_clk_xtal_adjust? api property must be modifi ed. the crystal load capacitance can be digitally programmed to accommodate crystals with various load ca pacitance requirements and to adjust the frequency of the crystal oscillator. the tuning of the crystal load ca pacitance is programmed through ?xxx? api property. the total internal capacitance is 12.7 pf and is adjustable in 127 steps (100 ff/step). the crystal frequency adjustment can be used to compensate for crystal production tolera nces. utilizing the on-chip temperature sensor and suitable control software, the temperature dependency of the crystal can be canceled. a tcxo or external signal source can easily be used in lieu of a conventional xtal and should be connected to the xin pin. the incoming signal is ac coupled internally to a squaring buffer so no external ac coupling or dc bias is required. if dc is provide it should be set to 500 mv. the incoming signal amplitude is should be set in the range from 500?900 mv. the internal capacitor bank will create a capacitive divider when an external source is used so the xtal capacitor bank should be set to 0. 29 tel: + 86-755-82973805 fax: + 86- 755-82973550 e-mail: sales@hoperf.com http:/ / www.hoperf.com RFM24W 6. data handling and packet handler 6.1. rx and tx fifos two 64 byte fifos are integrated into the chip, one for rx and one for tx, as shown in figure 11. writing to command register 66h will load data into the tx fifo and reading from command register 77h will read data from the rx fifo. the tx fifo has a threshold for when the fifo is almost empty which is set by the ?tx_fifo_empty? property. an interrupt event occurs w hen the data in the tx fifo reaches the almost empty threshold. if more data is not loaded into the fifo then the chip automatically exits the tx state after the ipksent interrupt occurs. the rx fifo has one programmab le threshold which is programmed by setting the ?rx_fifo_full? property. when the incoming rx data crosses the almost full threshold an interrupt will be generated to the microcontroller via the nirq pin. the mi crocontroller will then need to read the data from the rx fifo. both the tx and rx fifos may be cleared or reset with the ?fifo_reset? command. tx fifo rx fifo rx fifo almost full threshold tx fifo almost empty threshold 6.2. packet handler figure 11. tx and rx fifos when using the fifos, automatic packet handling may be enabled for tx mode, rx mode, or both. the usual fields for network communication (such as preamble, synchroni zation word, headers, packet length, and crc) can be configured to be automatically added to the data payload. the fiel ds needed for packet generation normally change infrequently and can therefore be stored in registers. automatically adding thes e fields to the data payload in tx mode and automatically checking them in rx mode great ly reduces the amount of communication between the microcontroller and si446x. it also greatly reduces the required computational power of the microcontroller. the general packet structure is shown in figure 12. any or a ll of the fields can be enabled and checked by the internal packet handler. the header/frame/length section is entirely configurable to almost any packet configuration with the match/value configuration properties. reference designs and examples are available for 15.4g and mbus packet structures. pr eamble sync header / fr ame / length payload crc
