Acknowledge Frames
The
transmitting
specified in [1]. Figure 21 shows the
format of the acknowledge frame.
If MDMCTRL0.AUTOACK is enabled, an
acknowledge frame is transmitted for all
incoming frames accepted by the address
recognition with the acknowledge request
flag set and a valid CRC. AUTOACK
therefore does not make sense unless

For systems using beacons, there is an
additional timing requirement that the
acknowledge frame transmission should
be
boundary (20 symbol periods) at least 12
symbol periods after the last symbol of the
incoming frame. This timing must be
controlled by the microcontroller by issuing
the SACK and SACKPEND command strobe
12 symbol periods before the following
backoff-slot boundary, as illustrated in
Figure 22.

enabled. The sequence number is copied
from the incoming frame.
AUTOACK may be used for non-beacon
systems as long as the frame pending
field (see Figure 17) is cleared. The
acknowledge frame is then transmitted 12
symbol periods after the last symbol of the
incoming frame. This is as specified by [1]
for non-beacon networks.
If a SACK or SACKPEND command strobe
is issued while receiving an incoming
frame,
transmitted 12 symbol periods after the
last symbol of the incoming frame. This
should be used to transmit acknowledge
frames in non-beacon networks. This
timing is also illustrated in Figure 22.
Using SACKPEND will set the pending data

pending flag will then be set for future

Acknowledge frames may be manually
