nRF401 Single Chip RF Transceiver
IMPORTANT TIMING DATA
Timing information
The timing information for the different operations is summarised in Table 5.
(TX is transmit mode, RX is receive mode and Std.by is Standby mode.)

Table 5 Switching times for nRF401.
Switching TX ↔ RX (operational mode).
When switching from RX-mode to TX-mode data (DIN) may not be sent before the
TXEN-input has been high for at least 1ms, see Figure 4(a).
When switching from TX-mode to RX-mode the receiver may not receive data
(DOUT) before the TXEN-input has been low for at least 3ms, see Figure 4(b).

Figure 4. Timing diagram for nRF401for switching from RX to TX (a)
and TX to RX (b).
Switching between standby and RX-mode (operational mode).
The time from the PWR_UP input is set to “1”, until the data (DOUT) is valid is tSR,,
see Table 5. Worst case tSR is 3ms for nRF401 as can be seen in Figure 5 (a).
Switching between standby and TX-mode (operational mode).
The time from the PWR_UP input is set to “1”, until the synthesised frequency is
stable is tST, see Table 5.
