Field Description
7
LFDO
LFDO – LF Detector Output
This read-only bit follows the bit slicer output signal that goes high during the presence of a carrier. It may
change at any time.
0 = LF detector output low (no signal above threshold); Result of power-on reset. Existing state remains
after all other types of reset.
1 = LF detector output high (received signal above threshold)
6
TOGMOD
TOGMOD – LFR Mode Toggle
This read/write bit enables the toggling of the CARMOD bit at each new LFON sequence. Reset clears this
bit. Therefore the reception chain will alternately look for a carrier frame or for a data frame.
0 = CARMOD bit does not change and determines detector mode; Result of power on or LFR reset. Existing
state remains after all other reset types.
1 = CARMOD bit will be toggled every LFON detection sequence, starting by CARMOD selection.
5:4
SYNC[1:0]
SYNC[1:0] – LF Synchronization Patter Selection
The two bits SYNC[1:0] selects the type of SYNC pattern. Reset presets these bits to the 11 (9T SYNC)
option. Compatible with preamble consisting of minimum 2 ms Manchester data to allow for proper
averaging filter operation.
0 0 = For factory test purposes, not intended for use in any application.
0 1 = 6T SYNC pattern
1 0 = 7.5T SYNC pattern
1 1 = 9T SYNC pattern; Result of power on or LFR reset. Existing state remains after all other reset types.
3:0
LFCDTM[3:0]
LFCDTM[3:0] – LF Carrier Detect Time
The 4 bits LFCDTM[3:0] select the length of time which the LFR input detector must detect a carrier before
validating it. In carrier mode (CARMOD = 1), if the carrier is active for at least the time selected by the
LFCDTM[3:0] bits and the LFCC counter value is reached, the LFCDF flag in the LFS register will be set;
and if the LFCDIE control bit is also set, the MCU will be interrupted (wake-up).
In the data receive mode (CARMOD = 0) the LFCDTM[3:0] bits select the length of time which the LFR input
detector must detect a carrier before the effective receive chain is powered on. Once the carrier has been
validated the LFCDTM[3:0] bits ignored during the decode of the rest of the data.
0 0 1 0 = Result of power on or LFR reset. Existing state remains after all other reset types.
See Table 80 for additional states.
