cc2570 and external crystal

Hi,

I am trying to change chip solutions from the NRF24AP2 to the CC2570. I am using the same low level serial functions in byte sync mode that I had successfully used with the NRF24AP2, but am not having the same luck with the cc2570. I have configured all of the pins the same and designed the circuit to match the reference design by TI.

The SEN line is pulled down and only pulses with a reset, which seems correct. The SEN and SCLK lines are inactive when a SRDY is applied. I have seen a function for enabling an external crystal (ANT_crystalEnable()) is this required for the CC2570?

Any other ideas would be helpful as well,

Thanks

Hello,

You shouldn't have to use ANT_EnableCrystal to turn your crystal on.
Would you be able to provide timing diagrams so that I can have a better understanding of what the problem might be?

Cheers

Would you be able to provide the schematic that you're working off of. Also, are you using the reset pin, a power up, or a soft reset to reset your device?

Attached is the schematic that I am working from.

I am using the reset pin and doing a hard reset followed by a soft reset.

In your schematic, it looks as though your reset pin is not connected to anything, but you say that you are using it. Can you please provide your reset pin circuitry?
