3.11
Similar to Buffered mode operation, in Packet mode the
NRZ data to/from the (de)modulator is not directly
accessed by the host microcontroller but is stored in
the FIFO and accessed through the SPI data interface.
The MRF89XA’s packet handler also performs several
packet oriented tasks such as Preamble and Sync
word generation, CRC calculation/check, DC scram-
bling
filtering. This simplifies the software still further and
reduces microcontroller overhead by performing these
repetitive tasks within the MRF89XA itself.

Another important feature is the ability to fill and empty
the FIFO in Stand-by mode, ensuring optimum power
consumption and adding more flexibility for the soft-
ware. Figure 3-25 shows the interface diagram during
Packet Mode.
Note:
Bit Synchronizer and Sync word recogni-
tion are automatically enabled in Packet
mode.
