• Bit 2 - AACK_ACK_TIME
According to IEEE 802.15.4, section 7.5.6.4.2 the transmission of an acknowledgment frame
shall commence 12 symbol periods (aTurnaroundTime) after the reception of the last symbol of
a data or MAC command frame. This is fulfilled with the reset value of the register bit [2]
(AACK_ACK_TIME).
If AACK_ACK_TIME = 1 an acknowledgment frame is sent 32 µs after the reception of the last
symbol of a data or MAC command frame. This may be applied to proprietary networks including
networks using the High Data Rate Modes to improve the overall data throughput.
