MODES OF OPERATION Overview of Operational Modes
The NRF2402/NRF2402G can be set in the following main modes depending on three control pins:
Mode Active Configuration Stand By Power Down PWR_UP 1 1 1 0 CE 1 0 0 X CS 0 1 0 X
Table 6 Overview of Operational Modes of NRF2402/NRF2402G. Active Modes The NRF2402/NRF2402G has two transmit modes: * * ShockBurstTM Direct Mode
The device functionality in these modes is determined by the content of a configuration word. This configuration word is presented in the configuration section.
ShockBurstTM
The ShockBurstTM technology uses on-chip FIFO to clock in data at a low data rate and transmit at a very high rate thus enabling extreme reduction in power consumption. When operating the NRF2402/NRF2402G (in co-operation with nRF2401/nRF24E1) in ShockBurstTM, you gain access to the high data rates (1 Mbps) offered by the 2.4 GHz band without the need of a costly, high-speed micro controller (MCU) for data processing. By putting all high speed signal processing related to RF protocol on-chip, the NRF2402/NRF2402G offers the following benefits: * * * Highly reduced current consumption Lower system cost (facilitates use of less expensive micro controller) Greatly reduced risk of `on-air' collisions due to short transmission time
The NRF2402/NRF2402G can be programmed using a simple 3-wire interface where the data rate is decided by the speed of the micro controller. By allowing the digital part of the application to run at low speed while maximizing the data rate on the RF link, the nRF ShockBurstTM mode reduces the average current consumption in applications considerably.

Direct Mode
In direct mode the NRF2402/NRF2402G works like a traditional RF device. The data rate must be 1Mbps 200ppm, or 250kbps 200ppm at low data rate setting, for the receiver (NRF2402/nRF24E1) to detect the signals. MCU interface pins: CE, DIN 1. When application MCU has data to send, set CE high 2. The NRF2402/NRF2402G RF front end is now immediately activated, and after 200 s settling time, signal on the DIN pin will modulate the carrier directly. 3. All RF protocol parts must hence be implemented in MCU firmware (preamble, address and CRC).
Configuration Mode
In configuration mode a configuration word of up to 20 bits is downloaded to NRF2402/NRF2402G. This is done through a simple 3-wire interface (CS, CLK and DIN). For more information on configuration please refer to the NRF2402/NRF2402G device configuration chapter, page13.
Power Down Mode
Power down mode is used to achieve very low current consumption. Effectively the chip is disabled with minimal leakage current consumption, typically less than 200nA. Operating in this mode when not transmitting data significantly increases battery lifetime.
Stand-By Mode
Stand by mode is used to achieve low current consumption. In this mode only a part of the crystal oscillator is running (12A) to guarantee a short start-up time. Operating in this mode when not transmitting data increases battery lifetime while keeping start up delays short.

DEVICE CONFIGURATION
All configuration of the NRF2402/NRF2402G is done via a 3-wire interface to a single configuration register. The configuration word can be up to 20 bits long for ShockBurstTM use and up to 14 bits long for direct mode.
Configuration for ShockBurstTM operation
The configuration word in ShockBurstTM enables the NRF2402/NRF2402G to handle the RF protocol (in co-operation with nRF2401/nRF24E1). Once the protocol is completed and loaded into NRF2402/NRF2402G only seven bits, also used in direct mode, needs to be updated during operation. The configuration bits dedicated to ShockBurstTM is as follows: * Preamble: Generation of 8 bit preamble in transmitted data. * CRC: Enables NRF2402/NRF2402G on-chip CRC generation. NOTE: The MCU must generate an address and a payload section that fits the configuration of the nRF2401/nRF24E1 that is to receive the data. When using the NRF2402/NRF2402G on-chip CRC feature ensure that CRC is enabled and uses the same length for both the NRF2402/NRF2402G and the receiving nRF2401/nRF24E1 devices.

General device configuration
Table 8 Table of configuration words. The configuration word is shifted in MSB first on positive CLK edges. New configuration is enabled on the negative edge of CS. NOTE! On the negative edge of CS, the NRF2402/NRF2402G updates the number of bits actually shifted in during the last configuration. Ex: If the NRF2402/NRF2402G is to be configured for Preamble and CRC in ShockBurstTM, a total of 17 bits must be shifted in during the first configuration after VDD is applied. Once the wanted "protocol" and modus are set there is no need to update this part of the configuration during operation. If RF channel is to be changed, only the RF_CH# bits need to be updated.

Suggestions for the use of addresses in ShockBurstTM: In general more bits in the address gives less false detection, which in the end may give lower data packet loss. * The address made by (5, 4, 3, or 2) equal bytes are not recommended because it in general will make the packet-error-rate increase. * Addresses where the level shift only one time (i.e. 000FFFFFFF) could often be detected in noise that may give a false detection, which again may give raised packet-error-rate. Direct mode will be dependent on the software used in the MCU, but it is recommended to have the same restrictions on addresses for this mode.

Note that the configuration word will be lost when VDD is turned off and that the device then must be configured before going to active mode. If the device is configured one can go directly from power down to active mode. Note: CE and CS may not be high at the same time. Setting one or the other decides whether configuration or active mode is entered. Configuration Mode In configuration mode the transmitters output power, transmit frequency, data rate, CRC, and preamble is set. The configuring data will be loaded during the Chip Select period (CS="1"). A random number of bits between 1 and 20 may be shifted in to the register to configure the transmitter, but normally you would at least shift in the seven channel frequency bits. The new configuration is activated on the negative edge of CS. When one or more of the bits in the configuration word needs to be changed the following timing apply. Configuration Mode Timing

Figure 14 Timing Diagram of Direct Mode In direct mode the input data will be sampled by NRF2402/NRF2402G and therefore no clock is needed. The clock must be stable at low level during transmission due to noise considerations. The exact delay Tsby2txDM is given by the equation:
Tsby 2txDM = 194us + 1 / F XO 20 + 2.25us
The maximum length of a package (ToaDM) over all voltages and temperatures is 4ms. This is limited by frequency drift in the transmitter and is independent of data rate and frequency channel.

PERIPHERAL RF INFORMATION Antenna output
The ANT1 and ANT2 output pins provide a balanced RF output to the antenna. The pins must have a DC path to VDD_PA, either via a RF choke or via the center point in a balanced antenna. Differential load impedance between the ANT1 and ANT2 pins, 100+j175, is recomme nded for maximum output power. Antennas with lower load impedance (for example 50) can be matched to NRF2402/NRF2402G by using a simple matching network.
Antenna matching networks
The recommended 50 matching network is shown in Figure 15. This is a low pass network improving higher harmonic suppression.

Figure 16 High pass antenna matching network This network utilizes one component less and uses few inductors, but performance of this network requires very careful PCB ground plane layout. The value of capacitor Cout is dependent on PCB ground plane layout and parasitics in the layout, and must hence be matched to a given application layout. The value of Cout will typically be in the range 1.0pF - 1.8pF. Cout must be tuned while checking that the harmonics output is below frequency regulatory limits.

Table 17 Crystal specification of the NRF2402/NRF2402G To achieve a crystal oscillator solution with low power consumption and fast start-up time, it is recommended to specify the crystal with a low value of crystal load capacitance. Specifying a lower value of crystal parallel equivalent capacitance, Co=1.5pF is also good, but this can increase the price of the crystal itself. Typically Co=1.5pF at a crystal specified for Co_max=7.0pF. The crystal load capacitance, CL, is given by:
CL = C1 'C 2 ' , C1 '+C 2 ' where C1 ' = C1 + C PCB1 + C I 1 and C 2 ' = C 2 + C PCB 2 + C I 2
C1 and C2 are 0603 SMD capacitors as shown in the application schematics. CPCB1 and CPCB2 are the layout parasitic on the circuit board. CI1 and CI2 are the capacitance seen into the XC1 and XC2 pin respectively; the value is typical 1pF.

NRF2402/NRF2402G Single Chip 2.4 GHz Radio Transmitter
Sharing crystal with micro controller. When using a micro controller to drive the crystal reference input XC1 of the NRF2402/NRF2402G transmitter some rules must be followed. Crystal parameters: When the micro controller drives the NRF2402/NRF2402G XC1 input, all crystal load parameters (C L, C 0, ESR) are set by the micro controller specification. The frequency accuracy (30 ppm) is still set by the NRF2402/NRF2402G specification. The NRF2402/NRF2402G will load the crystal circuitry of the micro controller by XC1 input capacitance (0.5pF) plus PBC routing paracitics. External reference input amplitude & Current consumption The reference input should never have signal levels exceeding rail voltages. Exceeding rail voltage will excite the ESD structure and the radio performance is degraded below specification. Applying reference sources without DC bias will bring the reference signal under GND level, and this is not acceptable.

Principle of crystal oscillator
It is hence recommended to use a DC-block before the XC1 pin so that the internal ESD structures will self bias the XC1 voltage. The NRF2402/NRF2402G crystal oscillator is amplitude regulated. To achieve low current consumption and also good signal-to-noise ratio, it is recommended to use an input signal

larger than 0.4 V-peak. The needed input swing is independent of the crystal frequency. When using external crystal refernce, XC2 is not used and can be left as an open pin. Frequency Reference MCU In direct mode there is a requirement on the accuracy of the data rate. For the receiver to detect the incoming data and recover the clock, the data rate must be within 200ppm, given that the data is "random", i.e. there is a statistical calculation on how often a preamble like sequence is present in the data. The clock is synchronized for any preamble detection, be it a dedicated preamble or part of the data stream. PCB layout and de-coupling guidelines A well-designed PCB is necessary to achieve good RF performance. Keep in mind that a poor layout may lead to loss of performance, or even functionality, if due care is not taken. A fully qualified RF-layout for the NRF2402/NRF2402G and its surrounding components, including matching networks, can be downloaded from www.nordicsemi.no. A PCB with a minimum of two layers including a ground plane is recommended for optimum performance. The NRF2402/NRF2402G DC supply voltage should be de-coupled as close as possible to the VDD pins with high performance RF capacitors, see Table 18. It is preferable to mount a large surface mount capacitor (e.g. 4.7F tantalum) in parallel with the smaller value capacitors. The NRF2402/NRF2402G supply voltage should be filtered and routed separately from the supply voltages of any digital circuitry. Long power supply lines on the PCB should be avoided. All device grounds, VDD connections and VDD bypass capacitors must be connected as close as possible to the NRF2402/NRF2402G IC. The VSS pins should be connected directly to the ground plane. One via hole should be used for each VSS pin. Full swing digital data or control signals should not be routed close to the crystal or the power supply lines.
