IEEE 802.15.4 operation

nRF54L15 | nRF54L10 | nRF54L05 Datasheet

The IEEE standard 802.15.4 differs from the Nordic proprietary and Bluetooth Low Energy modes. Differences include modulation scheme, channel structure, packet structure, security, and medium access control.

The following are the main features of the IEEE 802.15.4 mode:
  • Ultra-low power 250 kbps, 2450 MHz, IEEE 802.15.4-2020 compliant link
  • Clear channel assessment (CCA)
  • Energy detection (ED) scan
  • CRC generation

To enable RADIO to comply with the IEEE 802.15.4-2020 standard, set MODE = Ieee802154_250kbit.
