The 12-bit parameter F (bits
f11
to
f0
) should be in the range
of 96 and 3903. When F value sent is out of range, the
previous value is kept. The synthesizer center frequency f
0
can be calculated as:
f
0
= 10 · C1 · (C2 + F/4000) [MHz]
The constants C1 and C2 are determined by
the selected band as:

The actual bit rate in transmit mode and the expected bit rate of the received data stream in receive mode is determined by the 7-bit
parameter R (bits
r6
to
r0
) and bit
cs
.
BR = 10000 / 29 / (R+1) / (1+
cs
· 7) [kbps]
In the receiver set R according to the next function:
R= (10000 / 29 / (1+
cs
· 7) / BR) – 1, where BR is the expected bit rate in kbps.
Apart from setting custom values, the standard bit rates from 600 bps to 115.2 kbps can be approximated with small error.
Data rate accuracy requirements:
Clock recovery in slow mode:
BR/BR < 1/(29 · N
bit
)
Clock recovery in fast mode:
BR/BR < 3/(29 · N
bit
)
BR is the bit rate set in the receiver and
BR is the bit rate difference between the transmitter and the receiver. N
bit
is the maximum
number of consecutive ones or zeros in the data stream. It is recommended for long data packets to include enough 1/0 and 0/1
transitions, and to be careful to use the same division ratio in the receiver and in the transmitter.
