data
The value for t
depends on the speed setting of the modulator (32LF periods in standard
data
and 22 periods in high speed mode, with one period being 8µs when operating with 125kHz
output frequency and therefore 8MHz system clock).
The least amount of data that can be processed by the modulator stage is four LF bits or two
(e.g. Manchester-encoded) data bits. The first command in the upper example is a mini-
mum-length LF data command.
To ensure the traceability of the LF protocol, two pins are provided, which indicate an active
data transmission (MACT) and the change of an LF bit (BCNT).
Figure 3-12
illustrates the
function of these two signals:

BCNT Signal
The MACT signal can be used to start a timer whereas BCNT can be used as input signal to a
counter. Note that for carrier transmissions, only the MACT signal is active. There are not any
pulses on the BCNT line.
