Delay of 30ms while transmitting data using RF24 library : arduino or esp with Nrf21L01 module.

[Sneha M S]

Hi,

I am using NRF24L01 with arduino using RF24 library (https://github.com/maniacbug/RF24).

While executing the transmission code i have observed the following line takes about 30 to 30ms time delay to execute.

radio.write(&charBuf, sizeof(charBuf));

  It would be helpful if the delay is reduced by a significant amount of time. 

1. Is there any possible way to achieve <1ms delay? Is it the library the reason behind the delay or the chip that is causing the delay, If NRFL01 is the reason can you suggest the alternate chip.

2.How to interface the NRF24L01 chip with a microcontroller (without Arduino/other development board).

Thank you.

If the radio is powered off, it will take max 4 ms to start up the crystal oscillator. No reason for it to take 30 ms. 

For the arduino questions, I'm afraid that you have to ask elsewhere.
