Radio : Radio Registers
RSSIL (0xDF07)
Bit
Name
Reset
R/W
Description
RSSI estimate on a logarithmic scale, signed number in 2’s
complement.
7:0
RSSI_VAL[7:0]
0x80
R
Unit is 1 dB, offset is TBD [depends on the absolute gain of
the RX chain, including external components, and should
be measured]. The RSSI value is averaged over 8 symbol
periods.
SYNCWORDH (0xDF08)
Bit
Name
Reset
R/W
Description
7:0
Synchronization word. The SYNCWORD is processed from
the least significant nibble (F at reset) to the most significant
nibble (A at reset).
SYNCWORD[15:8]
0xA7
R/W
SYNCWORD is used both during modulation (where 0xF’s
are replaced with 0x0’s) and during demodulation (where
0xF’s are not required for frame synchronization). In
reception an implicit zero is required before the first symbol
required by SYNCWORD.
The reset value is compliant with IEEE 802.15.4.
SYNCWORDL (0xDF09)
Bit
Name
Reset
R/W
Description
7:0
Synchronization word. The SYNCWORD is processed from
the least significant nibble (F at reset) to the most significant
nibble (A at reset).
SYNCWORD[7:0]
0x0F
R/W
SYNCWORD is used both during modulation (where 0xF’s
are replaced with 0x0’s) and during demodulation (where
0xF’s are not required for frame synchronization). In
reception an implicit zero is required before the first symbol
required by SYNCWORD.
The reset value is compliant with IEEE 802.15.4.
TXCTRLH (0xDF0A)
Bit
Name
Reset
R/W
Description
TX mixer buffer bias current.
00 : 690 uA

TXMIXBUF_CUR[1:0]
10
R/W
01 : 980 uA
10 : 1.16 mA (nominal)
11 : 1.44 mA
Sets the wait time after STXON before transmission is
started.
5
TX_TURNAROUND

1 : 12 symbol periods (192 us)
Selects varactor array settings in the transmit mixers.
4:3

0
R/W
R/W
Transmit mixers current:
00 : 1.72 mA
01 : 1.88 mA
10 : 2.05 mA
11 : 2.21 mA
Power Amplifier (PA) output select. Selects differential or
single-ended PA output.
0
PA_DIFF
1
R/W
0 : Single-ended output
1 : Differential output
