MICRF114

After the wake-up delay, the MICRF114 starts to

automatically transmit. Since the exact timing of this is

unknown by the MCU, keep the transmit data input low

until the maximum specified wake-up time passes.

Although the MICRF114 wakes up earlier, it transmits

‘0’, that is, no carrier. Transmit data is asynchronous

and directly modulates the RF carrier. The MCU takes

care of all timing and coding of the data in software.

This is feasible due to the typical low-data rates and is

necessary due to the great variety of proprietary

protocols. The flowchart in Figure 2-4 shows the

MICRF114 states during a normal operation cycle.

Parameter Selection

All transmit parameters of the MICRF114 are stored in

a single 16-bit register. This is loaded with default

values at POR. The MCU can modify these values

before sending the transmit data. There are four

distinct parameter fields in the register as shown in

Table 2-1. To keep the MCU interface simple, only the

complete register as a whole can be updated. Fields

that need to remain unchanged must be reloaded with

the same value. For example, the new register value is

retained in Sleep mode until the next POR event.
