Product Description
The IR Click Board™ is an add-on board in mikroBUS form factor. It’s a compact and easy solution for adding infrared (IR) remote control module to your design. It features TSOP38338 IR receiver module as well as QEE113 IR emitting diode. The 38 kHz receiver carrier frequency is recommended for RCMM, NEC, RC5, RC6, r-step and XMP codes. IR Click™ communicates with the target microcontroller via mikroBUS™ UART (Tx and Rx) or AN and PWM lines. Jumpers J2 and J3 enable you to choose between these two ways. J1 zero-ohm SMD jumper is used to select between 3.3V or 5V power supply. It is soldered in 3.3V position by default.
Active Devices
The IR Click Board™ includes:
- TSOP38338 IR receiver module: This miniaturized receiver for infrared remote control system features a photo detector and preamplifier assembled on a lead frame. It is optimized to better suppress spurious pulses from energy saving fluorescent lamps.
- QEE113 IR emitting diode: The QEE113 is an infrared light emitting diode encapsulated in a plastic sidelooker package.
SMD Jumpers
The J2 and J3 SMD jumpers allow the user to select between the two communication modes. The target board MCU is capable of transmitting signal to IR emitting diode via PWM (IN) or RX, as well as receive signal from IR receiver via AN (OUT) or TX mikroBUS pins. Another zero-ohm J1 SMD jumper can select between 3.3V or 5V power supply (in 3.3V position by default).
