Microchip Information

14.3.1.1.4 RF_NeedCal Function

C

bool RF_NeedCal(void);

Description

This routine will decide if RF need to be calibrated. current method is a default 60 sec timer to trigger calibration

Parameters

None

Returns

A boolean value: True means RF need to be calibrated. False means RF doesn't need to be calibrated
