Table 20: Relevant Configuration Registers in Packet Mode (data processing related only)
Rx Mode:
It is not possible to receive multiple packets. Once a packet has been received and filled into the FIFO all its
content needs to be read i.e. the FIFO must be empty for a new packet reception to be initiated.
The Payload_ready interrupt goes high when the last payload byte is available in the FIFO and remains high until
all its data are read. Similar behavior is applicable to Adrs_match and CRC_OK interrupts.
The CRC result is available in the CRC_status bit as soon as the CRC_successful and Payload_ready interrupt
sources are triggered. In Rx mode, CRC_status is cleared when the complete payload has been read from the
FIFO. If the payload is read in Stby mode, then CRC_status is cleared when the user goes back to Rx mode and a
new Sync word is detected.
The Fifo_fill_method and Fifo_fill bits don’t have any meaning in the Packet mode and should be set to their default
values only.

IRQParam
Configure all data processing related registers listed below appropriately. In this example we assume CRC is
enabled with autoclear on.
Program Rx/Stby interrupts: IRQ_0 mapped to /Fifoempty (Rx_stby_irq_0=10) and IRQ_1 mapped to CRC_OK
(Rx_stby_irq_1=00)
Go to Rx (note that Rx is not ready immediately, see section 7.3.1
Wait for CRC_OK interrupt
Go to Stby
Read payload bytes from FIFO until /Fifoempty goes low.
Go to Sleep mode
