TX_CTRL Signal for TX Burst Indication
Features
The TX_CTRL signal is a 2.8V indication signal for TX Burst with a 100K pull-up resistor
implemented inside the WISMO218 module.

During TX burst
Low
No TX
High
During TX burst, there will be higher current drain from the VBATT power supply which causes a
voltage drop. This voltage drop from VBATT is a good ind ication of a high current drain situation
during TX burst.
The blinking frequency is about 216Hz.
The output logic low duration, Tduration, depends on the number of TX slots and is comp uted as
follows:
Tduration = Tadvance + (0.577ms x number of TX slots) + Tdelay.
