Si4421 INTERRUPT HANDLING In order to achieve low power consumption th ere is an advanced event handling circui t implemented. The device has a very low power consumption mode, so called sleep mode . I n t h i s m o d e o n l y a f e w p a r t s o f t h e c i r c u i t a r e w o r k i n g .
Si4421 The best practice in interrupt handling is t o s t a r t w i t h a s t a t u s r e a d w h e n i n t e r r u p t o c c u r s , a n d t h e n m a k e a d e c i si o n b a s e d o n the status byte. It is very importa nt to mention that any interrupt can “wake-up” the EZradio chip from sleep mode.

Si4421 RX FIFO BUFFERED DATA READ In this operating mode, incoming data are clocked into a 16-b it FI FO buffer. The receiver starts to fill up the FIFO when the V alid Data Indicator (VDI) bit and the synchron patter n recognition circu it indicates potentially re al incoming data.
Si4421 CRYSTAL SELEC TION GUIDELINES The crystal oscillator of the Si4421 requires a 10 MHz parallel mode c rystal. Th e circuit contains an integrated load capacitor in order to minimize the external component count. The internal load capacitance value is programmable from 8.
Si4421 RX-TX ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES RX-TX frequency offset can be caused only by the differences in the actual reference freq uency. To minimize these errors it is suggested to use the same crystal type and the same PC B layout for the crystal placement on the RX and TX PCBs.
