Figure 16 Timing of ShockBurst™ in RX
The CE may be kept high during downloading of data, but the cost is higher current
consumption (18mA) and the benefit is short start-up time (200µs) when DR1 goes
low.

Figure 17 Timing of direct mode TX
In TX direct mode the input data will be sampled by nRF2401A and therefore no
clock is needed. The clock must be stable at low level during transmission due to
noise considerations. The exact delay T

is given by the equation:

The maximum length of a package (ToaDM) over all voltages and temperatures is
4ms. This is limited by frequency drift in the transmitter and is independent of data
rate and frequency channel.
