Basic Operating Mode Timing
The following paragraphs depict state transitions and their timing properties. Timing figures are
explained in

Power-on Procedure
The power-on procedure to P_ON state is shown in
.
Figure 7-3.
Power-on Procedure to P_ON State
When the external supply voltage (V
DD
) is firstly supplied to the AT86RF231, the radio trans-
ceiver enables the crystal oscillator (XOSC) and the internal 1.8V voltage regulator for the digital
domain (DVREG). After t
TR1
= 380 µs (typ.), the master clock signal is available at pin 17
(CLKM) at default rate of 1 MHz. If CLKM is available the SPI is already enabled and can be
used to control the transceiver. As long as no state change towards state TRX_OFF is per-
formed the radio transceiver remains in P_ON state.
