Receiver – Digital Section

The output of the TRF7962A analog receiver block is a digitized subcarrier signal and is the input to the digital receiver block, which consists of two sections that partly overlap. The digitized subcarrier signal is a digital representation of the modulation signal on the RF envelope. The two sections of the digital receiver block are the protocol bit decoder section and the framing logic section.

The protocol bit decoder section converts the subcarrier coded signal into a serial bit stream and a data clock. The decoder logic is designed for maximum error tolerance. This tolerance lets the decoder section successfully decode even partly corrupted subcarrier signals that would otherwise be lost due to noise or interference.

The framing logic section formats the serial bit stream data from the protocol bit decoder stage into data bytes. During the formatting process, special signals such as the start of frame (SOF), end of frame (EOF), start of communication, and end of communication are automatically removed. The parity bits and CRC bytes are also checked and removed. The end result is "clean" or "raw" data that is then sent to the 12-byte FIFO register where it can be read by the external microcontroller system. Providing the data this way, in conjunction with the timing register settings of the TRF7962A, means the firmware developer must know about much less of the finer details of the ISO protocols to create a very robust application, especially in low-cost platforms where code space is at a premium and high performance is still required.

The start of the receive operation (successfully received SOF) sets the IRQ flags in the IRQ Status register (0x0C). The end of the receive operation is signaled to the external system MCU by setting pin 13 (IRQ) to high. When data is received in the FIFO, an interrupt is sent to the MCU to signal that there is data to be read from the FIFO. The FIFO Status register (0x1C) should be used to provide the number of bytes that should be clocked out during the actual FIFO read. Additionally, an interrupt is sent to the MCU when the received data occupies 75% of the FIFO capacity to signal that the data should be removed from the FIFO. That interrupt is triggered when the received data packet is longer than 9 bytes.

Any error in the data format, parity, or CRC is detected and notified to the external system by an interrupt request pulse. The source condition of the interrupt request pulse is available in the IRQ Status register (0x0C). The main register controlling the digital part of the receiver is the ISO Control register (0x01). By writing to this register, the user selects the protocol to be used. With each new write in this register, the default presets are reloaded in all related registers, so no further adjustments in other registers are needed for proper operation.

NOTE

If additional register setting changes are needed to fine-tune the system, set the ISO Control register (0x01) before making the additional changes.

The receive section also includes two timers. The RX wait time timer is controlled by the value in the RX Wait Time register (0x08). This timer defines the time interval after the end of the transmit operation in which the receive decoders are not active (held in reset state). This prevents false detections resulting from transients following the transmit operation. The value of the RX Wait Time register (0x08) defines the time in increments of 9.44 µs. This register is preset at every write to ISO Control register (0x01) according to the minimum tag response time defined by each standard.

The RX no response timer is controlled by the RX No Response Wait Time register (0x07). This timer measures the time from the start of slot in the anticollision sequence until the start of tag response. If there is no tag response in the defined time, an interrupt request is sent and a flag is set in the IRQ Status register (0x0C). This enables the external controller to be relieved of the task of detecting empty slots. The wait time is stored in the register in increments of 37.76 µs. This register is also automatically preset for every new protocol selection.
