RF-24G MCU Speed

I have the following questions on the MCU - RF-24 G transreceiver.

This site provides some PIC code but what if another processor is to be used.

Is the code timing sensitive or can the shockburst mode be used so that the MCU code need not be timing dependant ?

Would it be advisable to use SPI or just GPIO ?

I am planning to get started on this and am real confused.

Thanks.

You can pretty much use any uC you want, you just have to follow the rules spelled out in the 24G’s datasheet. It’s real picky about how you talk to it, and using shockburst mode won’t relieve that. You’ve got to obey the timimg constraints or it just flat out won’t work.

My MCU is running at 8Mhz and most of the instructions are 1 cycle.

I have hooked up the RF-24 G transreceiver, idependantly the lines are being toggled by the code but I dont see any data being transferred.

I am using a modified version of the SparkFun sample code but the DR1 pin does not go high at all :-(.

I am lost on what to do, could there be a timing problem ?

I am using GPIO and not SPI. Should I enable pull ups on the pins ?

TIA.

hi Wu

I’m interested to help you to develop a modified code for the smirf transceivers, but I need yourhelp, maybe which compiler you are using, how do you want to transfer the data, etc. please contact me at

anybody who want to help me to develop or optimize the code please write me or contact me
