CC2500 won't go to sleep - oliver at mettrix - Aug 11 9:44:21 2008
Hello All, we have another synapse splitting problem.
Our design includes a CC2500 for communication. We send it an SIDLE command followed by an SPWD to put it to sleep. We then try communicating with it
and sure enough we get an interrupt on the GDO0 line to tell us that a packet is available. The SIDLE should remove any possibility of a wake on radio occuring thus we can't understand why we can still communicate. When we try to talk to it, it received the message that it is sent. The unit runs on battery and as long as we can't put it to sleep the batteries don't even last two hours.
Any help is appreciated.
Separately thanks to bb_stephan for his previous insight.
