The device enters forced PWM mode operation immediately whenever the MODE/DATA pin turns to high level.
The device also stays in forced PWM mode during the entire protocol reception time.
With a falling edge on the MODE/DATA pin the device starts bit decoding. If the MODE/DATA pin stays low for at
least t
timeout
, the device gets an internal timeout and Power Save Mode operation is enabled.
A protocol sent within this time is ignored because the falling edge for the Mode change is first interpreted as
start of the first bit. In this case it is recommended to send the protocol first, and then change at the end of the
protocol to Power Save Mode.

ACK OUT Acknowledge condition active 0, this condition will only be applied in case RFA bit is
set. Open drain output, Line needs to be pulled high by the host with a pullup
resistor.
This feature can only be used if the master has an open drain output stage. In case
of a push pull output stage Acknowledge condition may not be requested!
