[258] RADIO: PHYEND event is delayed for some AoA and AoD configurations

This anomaly applies to Revision 2, build codes QDAA-C00.

It was inherited from the previous IC revision Engineering B.

Symptoms

The PHYEND event is generated 16 μs too late when compared to the actual end of frame on air.

Conditions

The RADIO peripheral enables the parsing of CTEInfo from the received packets in Bluetooth Low Energy modes using the CTEINLINECONF register and the received PDU does not contain CTEInfo.

Consequences

If protocol timing, for example T_IFS, is based on the PHYEND event, the device is not compliant.

Workaround

Checking the CTEPRESENT event allows software to detect this case. It must then compensate any timing based on the PHYEND event by 16 μs.
