FIFO Buffered Data Read

In this operating mode, incoming data are clocked into a 16 bit FIFO buffer. The receiver starts to fill

up the FIFO when the Valid Data Indicator (VDI) bit and/or the synchron word recognition circuit indicates

potentially real incoming data. This prevents the FIFO from being filled with noise and overloading the

external microcontroller.

For further details see the Receiver Setting Command and the Output and FIFO Command.

Polling Mode:

The nFFS signal selects the buffer directly and its content could be clocked out through pin SDO by

SCK. Set the FIFO IT level to 1. In this case, as long as FFIT indicates received bits in the FIFO, the

controller may continue to take the bits away. When FFIT goes low, no more bits need to be taken. An

SPI read command is also available.

Interrupt Controlled Mode:

The user can define the FIFO level (the number of received bits) which will generate the nFFIT when

exceeded. The status bits report the changed FIFO status in this case.

FIFO Read Example with FFIT Polling:

During FIFO access the f

SCK

cannot be higher than f

ref

/4, where f

ref

is the crystal oscillator frequency.

RX-TX ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES

RX-TX frequency offset can be caused only by the differences in the actual reference frequency. To
