and the original data appear in the receiver.
The PN9 sequence is reset to all 1’s.
receiver. With CC2510Fx/CC2511Fx, this can be
done automatically by setting
PKTCTRL0.WHITE_DATA=1. All data, except
the preamble and the sync word, are then
XOR-ed with a 9-bit pseudo-random (PN9)
sequence before being transmitted as shown
in Figure 49. At the receiver end, the data are
XOR-ed with the same pseudo-random
Data whitening can only be used when
PKTCTRL0.CC2400_EN=0(default).
