CC2510 PER Testing

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TEST2

Hello Support,

We need to do PER testing on our device using a signal generator (SG) at various amplitudes. It seems the best way to handle this would be to output a serial stream from a microcontroller into the SG and have it modulated for the receiving DUT. Because there's additional information (CRC, 30/32 sync) appended to the packet by the radio's packetizer, we need some help getting a test packet assembled. Will you please provide a serialized packet, including CRC checksum for the following packet...

preamble (4) + length (8) + sync (MG) + payload (ST_PER) + checksum

The radio settings we are using is as follows...

  FSCTRL1   =     0x08;       // Frequency Synthesizer Control
  FSCTRL0   =     0x00;       // Frequency Synthesizer Control
  FREQ2     =     0x5C;       // Frequency Control Word, High Byte
  FREQ1     =     0x5C;       // Frequency Control Word, Middle Byte
  FREQ0     =     0xEC;       // Frequency Control Word, Low Byte
  MDMCFG4   =     0x78;       // Modem configuration
  MDMCFG3   =     0x83;       // Modem Configuration
  MDMCFG2   =     0x13;       // Modem Configuration
  MDMCFG1   =     0x23;       // Modem Configuration
  MDMCFG0   =     0x8A;       // Modem Configuration
  CHANNR    =     0x4A;       // Channel Number
  DEVIATN   =     0x44;       // Modem Deviation Setting
  FREND1    =     0x56;       // Front End RX Configuration
  FREND0    =     0x10;       // Front End TX Configuration
  MCSM0     =     0x14;       // Main Radio Control State Machine Configuration
  FOCCFG    =     0x16;       // Frequency Offset Compensation Configuration
  BSCFG     =     0x6C;       // Bit Synchronization Configuration
  AGCCTRL2  =     0x43;       // AGC Control 
  AGCCTRL1  =     0x40;       // AGC Control 
  AGCCTRL0  =     0x91;       // AGC Control 
  FSCAL3    =     0xA9;       // Frequency Synthesizer Calibration
  FSCAL2    =     0x0A;       // Frequency Synthesizer Calibration
  FSCAL1    =     0x00;       // Frequency Synthesizer Calibration
  FSCAL0    =     0x11;       // Frequency Synthesizer Calibration
  TEST2     =     0x88;       // Various Test Settings
  TEST1     =     0x31;       // Various Test Settings
  TEST0     =     0x09;       // Various Test Settings
  PA_TABLE0 =     PA_Level; //0xFE;       // PA Power Setting
  PKTCTRL1  =     0x04;       // Packet Automation Control
  PKTCTRL0  =     0x05;       // Packet Automation Control
  ADDR      =     0x00;       // Device Address
  PKTLEN    =     0xFF;       // Packet Length

Thanks for your help,
