f

RM

is lower than the lowest feasible frequency of a data signal. By this means, RM

cannot be misinterpreted by the connected microcontroller.

If the receiver is set back to polling mode via pin DATA, RM cannot be canceled by
accident if t1 is applied according to the proposal in the section “Programming the
Configuration Register” on page 21.

By means of that mechanism, the receiver cannot lose its register information without
communicating that condition via the reset marker RM.

Programming the
Configuration Register

The configuration registers are programmed serially via the bi-directional data line
according to Figure 20 and Figure 21.
