... The AX5151 behaves as a SPI slave interface. Configuration of the AX5151 is also done via the SPI interface. AX5151 supports any data rate from 38.4 kbps to 200 kbps for FSK and MSK and from 38.4 kbps for 600 kbps for ASK and PSK. To achieve optimum performance for specific data rates and modulation schemes several register settings to configure the AX5151 are necessary, they are outlined in the following, for details see the AX5151 Programming Manual ...
Page 20
... Voltage Regulator The AX5151 uses an on-chip voltage regulator to create a stable supply voltage for the internal circuitry at pin VREG from the primary supply VDD_IO. All VDD pins of the device must be connected to VREG. The antenna pins ANTP and ANTN must be DC biased to VREG. The I/O level of the digital pins is VDD_IO. The voltage regulator requires a 1µ ...

... PCB to avoid interference. 5.4. Power-on-reset (POR) and RESET_N Input AX5151 has an integrated power-on-reset block. No external POR circuit or signal at the RESET_N pin is required, prior to POR the RESET_N pin is disabled. After POR the AX5151 can be reset in two ways SPI accesses: the bit RST in the PWRMODE register is toggled. ...

... MHz band, the BANDSEL bit in the PLLLOOP register must be programmed. VCO Auto-Ranging The AX5151 has an integrated auto-ranging function, which allows to set the correct VCO range for specific frequency generation subsystem settings automatically. Typically it has to be executed after power-up. The function is initiated by setting the RNG_START bit in the PLLRANGING register ...
Page 23
... The channel filter offers bandwidths of 40 kHz up to 600 kHz. For detailed instructions how to program the digital channel filter and the demodulator see the AX5151 Programming Manual, an overview of the registers involved is given in the following table. The register setups typically must be done once at power-up of the device. ...

... It does so without adding additional bits, i.e. without changing the data rate. Spectral Shaping uses a self synchronizing feedback shift register. The encoder is programmed using the register ENCODING, details and recommendations on usage are given in the AX5151 Programming Manual. Version 1.0 Remarks This register programs the bandwidth of the digital channel filter ...

... FIFO needs servicing. In interrupt mode EMPTY, NOT EMPTY, FULL, NOT FULL and programmable level interrupts are provided. The AX5151 signals interrupts by asserting (driving high) its IRQ line. The interrupt line is level triggered, active high. Interrupts are acknowledged by removing the cause for the interrupt, i ...
Page 26
... HDLC Mode Note: HDLC mode follows High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC, ISO 13239) protocol. HDLC Mode is the main framing mode of the AX5151. In this mode, the AX5151 performs automatic packet delimiting, and optional packet correctness check by inserting and checking a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) field. ...

... The despreader function of the receiver undoes that. In 802.15.4 mode, the AX5151 framing unit performs the spreading and despreading function according to the 802.15.4 specification. In receive mode, the framing unit will also automatically search for the 802 ...

... Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) The AX5151 can be programmed via a four wire serial interface according SPI using the pins CLK, MOSI, MISO and SEL. Registers for setting up the AX5151 are programmed via the serial peripheral interface in all device modes. When the interface signal SEL is pulled low bit configuration data stream is expected on the input signal pin MOSI, which is interpreted as D0 ...
