    CAUTION: It is recommended to keep the default value of this parameter in order to maintain expected reception performance.

PLC_ID_SYNC_XCORR_PEAK_VALUE (0x402F)

  • Description: Correlation value in last received PDU. The format is the same described in PLC_ID_SYNC_XCORR_THRESHOLD (0x403B).
  • Access: Read-only
  • Value Range: 2 bytes
  • Default Value: 0

PLC_ID_PPM_CALIB_ON (0x4030)

  • Description: Enable the oscillator clock signal to go out through TXRX1 pad. This is useful to measure clock frequency deviation.
  • Access: Read-write
  • Value Range: 1 byte
  • Default Value: 0

PLC_ID_SFO_ESTIMATION_LAST_RX (0x4031)

  • Description: Estimation of the double-sided (between transmitter and receiver) clock frequency deviation for the last received PDU. The value is signed and the unit is 0.001 ppm. To convert to ppm, the read value has to be divided by 1000.
  • Access: Read-only
  • Value Range: 4 bytes
  • Default Value: 0

PLC_ID_PREAMBLE_LEN_BYTES (0x4032)

  • Description: Number of bytes present on PLC frames preamble. It is used on both Tx for generation and Rx for validation
  • Access: Read-write
  • Value Range: 1 byte
  • Default value: 4
