Several I/Os are connected to the digital interface connector for custom applications. AADET0_N AADET0_N is an input pin and it is used to report whether an external circuit has detected an external antenna or not. Low means antenna has been detected. High means no external antenna has been detected. RoyalTek Confidential...
