In automatic operation mode (no strobe signal is needed from the microcontroller to update the output offset register) the AFC circuit is
automatically enabled when the VDI indicates potential incoming signal during the whole measurement cycle and the circuit measures the
same result in two subsequent cycles.
There are three operation modes, example from the possible application:
1, (a1=0, a0=1) The circuit measures the frequency offset only once after power up. In this way extended TX-RX maximum distance can be
achieved.
Possible application:
In the final application, when the user inserts the battery, the circuit measures and compensates for the frequency offset caused by the
crystal tolerances. This method allows for the use of a cheaper quartz in the application and provides protection against tracking an
interferer.
2a, (a1=1, a0=0) The circuit automatically measures the frequency offset during an initial effective low data rate pattern –easier to receive-
(i.e.: 00110011) of the package and changes the receiving frequency accordingly. The further part of the package can be received by the
corrected frequency settings.
2b, (a1=1, a0=0) The transmitter must transmit the first part of the packet with a step higher deviation and later there is a possibility to
reduce it.
In both cases (2a and 2b), when the VDI indicates poor receiving conditions (VDI goes low), the output register is automatically cleared. Use
these settings when receiving signals from different transmitters transmitting in the same nominal frequencies.
3, (a1=1, a0=1) It’s the same as 2a and 2b modes, but suggested to use when a receiver operates with only one transmitter. After a
complete measuring cycle, the measured value is kept independently of the state of the VDI signal.
