Lim_min and Lim_max are defined by a 5-bit word each within the LIMIT register.
Using the above formulas, Lim_min and Lim_max can be determined according to the
required T
Lim_min
, T
Lim_max
and T
XClk
. The time resolution when defining T
Lim_min
and
T
Lim_max
is T
XClk
. The minimum edge-to-edge time t
ee
(t
DATA_L_min
, t
DATA_H_min
) is defined
according to the section “Receiving Mode”. Due to this, the lower limit should be set to
Lim_min
³
10. The maximum value of the upper limit is Lim_max = 63.
Figure 10, Figure 11 and Figure 12 illustrate the bit check for the default bit check limits
Lim_min = 14 and Lim_max = 24. When the IC is enabled, the signal processing circuits
are enabled during T
Startup
. The output of the demodulator (Dem_out) is undefined dur-
ing that period. When the bit check becomes active, the bit check counter is clocked with
the cycle T
XClk
.
Figure 10 shows how the bit check proceeds if the bit-check counter value CV_Lim is
within the limits defined by Lim_min and Lim_max at the occurrence of a signal edge. In
Figure 12, the bit check fails as the value CV_lim is lower than the limit Lim_min. The bit
check also fails if CV_Lim reaches Lim_max. This is illustrated in Figure 13.
