The MACA is responsible for construction of packets for TX including FCS, and for parsing the received
packets. The MACA will also handle ACKs and TxPoll sequences independent of the ARM processor.
During TX the MACA will construct the entire packet. This includes preamble and SFD (start of frame
delimiter). During receive, the modem will recognize preamble and SFD, then the MACA will begin
receiving the packet with the first bit of frame length, and finally, will check the FCS.
3.4.1.1
In order to reduce CPU load, the MACA module has embedded features for controlling parts of the IEEE
802.15.4 PHY and MAC layer requirements. The MACA core features include:

Sequence Manager sequences / auto sequences
— RX only
— TX only
— Automatic acknowledgment frame reception on transmitted packets
— Automatic acknowledgment frame transmission on received packets
— Auto-RX for continuous reception as coordinator
— Auto sequence for transmitted MAC data.request
— Assist for efficient response to MAC data.request
— Embedded channel assessment in sequence
— Support for sequences with slotted mode access
— Timer triggered and immediately executed actions
— Support for extended RX for reception in random backoff and battery life extension
— Support for promiscuous mode
Programmable auto sequence timing - Each CCA, RX, or TX event is an independent operation.
The radio gets through a power-up or “warm-up” sequence for each operation (including VCO),
and there is also a power-down or “warm-down” time. Sequences are combinations of radio
operations and are highly configurable.
— RX warm-up is 72 µs
