Bit 3 – DVREG_EXT
If set, this register bit disables the internal digital voltage regulator to apply an external
regulated 1.8 V supply for the digital building blocks.

Register Bit
Value
Description
0
Internal voltage regulator enabled (digital domain)
DVREG_EXT
1
Internal voltage regulator disabled; use external
regulated 1.8 V supply voltage for the digital domain
Bit 2 – DVDD_OK
This register bit indicates if the internal 1.8 V regulated voltage supply DVDD has
settled. The bit is set to logic high if DVREG_EXT = 1.

Register Bit
Value
Description
0
Digital voltage regulator disabled or supply voltage not
stable
DVDD_OK
1
Digital supply voltage has settled
While the reset value of this bit is 0, any practical access to the register is only possible
when DVREG is active. So this bit is normally always read out as 1.
Bit 1:0 – Reserved

Bit 7 – RX_SAFE_MODE
Bit 6 – TRX_OFF_AVDD_EN
If this register bit is set, the analog voltage regulator is turned on (kept on) during
TRX_OFF, enabling faster RX/TX turn on time. This is especially useful for a short
stopover in TRX_OFF state. The recharge time for capacitances is avoided in this case.
The current consumption increases by typical 100 A.
