T
TimeoutRxPreamble
should be set to the expected transmit preamble duration (depends on PreambleDetectSize and
BitRate).
T
Timer1
should be set to 64 µs (shortest possible duration).
T
Timer2
is set so that T
Timer1 +
T
Timer2
defines the time between two start of reception.
In order to ensure packet detection and optimize the receiver power consumption the received packet Preamble should be
defined so that T
Preamble =
T
Timer2
- T
SyncAddress
with T
SyncAddress
= (SyncSize + 1)*8/BitRate.
An example of DIO configuration for this mode is described in the following table:
Table 46 Listen Mode with PreambleDetect Condition Recommended DIO Mapping
LowPowerSelection 1: To Idle state
FromIdle 1: To Receive state on
T1 interrupt
FromReceive 101: To Sequencer off on
SyncAddress interrupt
FromRxTimeout 10: To LowPowerSelection
