ESB short TX repeat intervals with large ACK payload

[Steve H]

Hi,

If an ESB PRX has queued a 250-byte auto-ack payload, that will take around 2ms at 1Mbs to transmit.

If the ESB PTX has the standard 250us repeat interval, will the PTX ever receive the packet or will it timeout before the whole ACK payload has been received?

Historically you would need to scale the re-transmit delay to ensure it could receive the entire ack payload depending on max size and data-rate. I doubt this has changed since.

Best regards,
Kenneth
