8.6 Correlator

After frequency detection the data correlation is only performed if the correlator is enabled (R1<1>=1).

The data correlation consists of checking the presence of a preamble (ON/OFF modulated carrier) followed by a certain pattern.

After the frequency detection the correlator waits 16 bits (see bit rate definition in Table 18) and if no preamble is detected the chip is set back to

listening mode and the false-wakeup register (R13<7:0>) is incremented by one.

To get started with the pattern correlation the correlator needs to detect at least 4 bits of the preamble (ON/OFF modulated carrier).

The bit duration is defined in the register R7<4:0> according to the Table 18 as function of the Real Time Clock (RTC) periods.
