Address (Sync ID) 

The Sync ID is sent and received starting from the LSB. For example, if the “Sync ID Length” is set to 16 and the “Sync ID Value” 

is set to 1, the binary value of the Sync ID is “0000 0000 0000 0001”. In this case, bit<0> = 1 is received first and bit<15> = 0 is 

received at the end of the Sync ID field. 

 

 

D0, D1, D2, D3 

These are the 4 data bits D0, D1, D2, D3 received to control the data pins. D0 is received first. 

 

 

CRC 

The 8-symbol CRC field can increase the reliability of the communication, while it also increases the entire packet length. The 

CRC is calculated on the address (Sync ID) field and the data (D0 – D7) field of the Normal Packet, and is only calculated on the 

address (Sync ID) field of the Study Packet (See below section). The CRC polynomial is:

5.1.2  1920 Study Packet Structure

 

The study packet is used for the device to learn the Sync ID from the transmitter in order to pair with the transmitter. It contains an 

optional Preamble, a 32-symbol Head_S, a Sync ID and an optional 8-symbol CRC.

Figure 28. 1920 Study Packet Structure 

 

The Study Packet structure is not illustrated on the RFPDK since the settings of Preamble, Sync ID and CRC are identical to 

those of the Normal Packet. Differing from the Head_N in the Normal Packet, the Head_S indicates the current packet is a Study 

Packet. Also, the Study Packet does not contain the data field. The pattern of Head_S is shown below:

5.1.3  1920 Bit Format

 

In 1920 packet, a single bit can be constructed (encoded) by 3, 4, 5 or 6 symbols. The user can select the desired value of the 

“Bit Format” parameter on the RFPDK. Please note that only the Sync ID field and the D0, D1, D2, D3 field have the unit of “bit”.
