In section 17.1.9 of the nRF51 reference manual it states:
Maximum consecutive transmission time is defined as the longest time the RADIO can be active transmitting before it has to be disabled, i.e. the longest possible time between READY event and DISABLE task.
Maximum consecutive transmission time for the RADIO is 1 ms running of a 60 ppm crystal and 16 ms running of a 30 ppm crystal.
I have a few questions:
-
Why does this exist? (And why does it depend on the crystal?)
-
Can I just re-enable the radio immediately after it is disabled?
-
What happens if I go past the 1 or 16 ms time limit?
