OZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCES POLICY STATEMENT

It is the policy of Vishay Semiconductor GmbH to
1. Meet all present and future national and international statutory requirements.
2. Regularly and continuously improve the performance of our products, processes, distribution and
operating systems with respect to their impact on the health and safety of our employees and the
public, as well as their impact on the environment.
It is particular concern to control or eliminate releases of those substances into the atmosphere which
are known as ozone depleting substances (ODSs).
The Montreal Protocol (1987) and its London Amendments (1990) intend to severely restrict the use of
ODSs and forbid their use within the next ten years. Various national and international initiatives are
pressing for an earlier ban on these substances.
Vishay Semiconductor GmbH has been able to use its policy of continuous improvements to eliminate
the use of ODSs listed in the following documents.
1. Annex A, B and list of transitional substances of the Montreal Protocol and the London Amendments
respectively
2. Class I and II ozone depleting substances in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 by the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the USA
3. Council Decision 88/540/EEC and 91/690/EEC Annex A, B and C (transitional substances)
respectively.
Vishay Semiconductor GmbH can certify that our semiconductors are not manufactured with ozone
depleting substances and do not contain such substances.

Infrared Data Communication According to IrDA Standard

Part 1: Physical Layer
What is IrDA?
IrDA is the abbreviation for the Infrared Data Association, a non-profit organization for setting standards
in IR serial computer connections. The following is an
original excerpt from the IrDA Web site
(http://www.irda.org).
Executive Summary
IrDA was established in 1993 to set and support hardware and software standards which create infrared
communications links. The Association's charter is to
create an interoperable, low-cost, low-power, halfduplex, serial data interconnection standard that supports a walk-up, point-to-point user model that is
adaptable to a wide range of applications and
devices. IrDA standards support a broad range of
computing, communications, and consumer devices.
International in scope, IrDA is a non-profit corporation
headquartered in Walnut Creek, California, and led by
a Board of Directors which represents voting membership worldwide. As a leading high technology standards association, IrDA is committed to developing
and promoting infrared standards for the hardware,
software, systems, components, peripherals, communications, and consumer markets.
Industry Overview
Infrared (IR) communications is based on technology
which is similar to the remote control devices such as
TV and entertainment remote controls used in most
homes today. IR offers a convenient, inexpensive and
reliable way to connect computer and peripheral
devices without the use of cables. IrDA connectivity is
being incorporated into most notebook PCs to bring
the most cost-effective and easy to use support available for wireless technologies.
There are few US, European or other international
regulatory constraints.
Manufacturers can ship IrDA-enabled products globally without any constraints, and IrDA functional
devices can be used by international travellers wherever they are, and interference problems are minimal.
Standards for IR communications have been developed by IrDA. In September 1993, IrDA determined
the basis for the IrDA SIR Data Link Standards. In
June 1994, IrDA published the IrDA standards which
www.vishay.com
8
includes Serial Infrared (SIR) Link specification, Link

Access Protocol (IrLAP) specification, and Link Management Protocol (IrLMP) specification. IrDA
released extensions to SIR standard including
4 Mbit/s in October 1995. The IrDA Standard Specification has been expanded to include high speed
extensions of 1.152 Mbit/s and 4.0 Mbit/s. This extension will require an add-in card to retrofit existing PCs
with high speed IR, and a synchronous communications controller or equivalent.
In 1995, several market leaders announced or
released products with IR features based on IrDA
standards. These products include components,
adapters, printers, PCs, PDAs, notebook computers,
LAN access, and software applications. In November
1995, the Microsoft Corporation announced it had
added support for IrDA connectivity to the Microsoft
Windows 95 operating system, enabling low-cost
wireless connectivity between Windows 95 based
PCs and peripheral devices.
IrDA's interoperable infrared serial data link features
low power consumption with data speeds up to
4 Mbit/s, allowing a cordless 'walk-up-to' data transfer
in a simple, yet compelling way. Applications are in
both consumer and commercial markets with a universal data connection relevant in the use of docking
and input units, printers, telephones, desktop/ laptop
PCs, network nodes, ATMs, and handheld mobile
peers (PDA meets PDA). Yesterdays systems with
IR capabilities such as Newton, Omnibook, Wizard
and Zoomer are not easily compatible with each other
or other complementary devices. IrDA is the response
in which many segments of the industry have committed themselves to realizing the opportunity of a general standard providing data links which are noninterfering and interoperable.
The IrDA - Standard

The current IrDA physical layer standard is version
1.4 and includes all changes and add-ons up to VFIR
with 16 Mbit/s. Version 1.4 replaced version 1.3 which
is obsolete as are all former versions from 1.0 to 1.2.
Referring to these versions currently can describe
only historical steps of the IrDA - development.

Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06

How IrDA Transmission Works
The transmission in an IrDA-compatible mode (sometimes called SIR for serial IR) uses, in the simplest
case, the RS232 port, a built-in standard of all compatible PCs. With a simple interface, shortening the
bit length to a maximum of 3/16 of its original length
for power-saving requirements, an infrared emitting
diode is driven to transmit an optical signal to the
receiver.
This type of transmission covers the data range up to
115.2 kbit/s which is the maximum data rate supported by standard UARTs (see figure 1). The minimum demand for transmission speed for IrDA is only
9600 bit/s. All transmissions must be started at this
frequency to enable compatibility. Higher speeds are
a matter of negotiation of the ports after establishing
the links.
Higher speeds require special interfaces which operate at 1.152 Mbit/s and use a similar pulse-shortening
process as in the RS232-related mode, but with a
pulse reduction to 1/4 of the original pulse length. The
fastest data rate supported by IrDA is 4.0 Mbit/s (often
called FIR), operating with 125-ns pulses in a 4-PPM
(PPM = Pulse-Position Modulation) mode. The typical
interfaces for the various modes are shown in figure
2. In the following chapter "IrDA Standard - Physical
Layer", the definitions of the IrDA standard are given.
Optical output power and receiver sensitivity are set
to a level where a point-and-shoot activity (r15q) is
sufficient for point-to-point communication, but prevents the pollution of the ambient by straying needless power. Transmission over a distance of at least
1 m is ensured. The detector front end receives the
transmitted signal, re-shapes the signal and feeds it
to the port. The system works in a half-duplex mode
that allows only one transmission direction to be
active at any given time.
For frequencies up to 115.2 kbit/s, the minimum output intensity is defined with 40 mW/sr. For higher
speeds, a higher output intensity of 100 W/sr minimum is used. The sensitivity thresholds are
40 mW/m2 and 100 mW/m2 for SIR and FIR respectively.
The wavelength chosen for the standard is between
850 nm and 900 nm.
An additional IrDA standard was generated in 1997
(voted Feb. 1998) for Control applications, the socalled IrControl standard.
This standard is using the IEC1603-1 sub carrier frequency allocation with a carrier at 1500 kHz. The
transmission capacity is 72 kbit/s. This system has
still some compatibility problems with the SIR/FIR
Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06
IrDA Standard. One of the disadvantages is that the

detector circuitry is different from the other, baseband system. Therefore, integrating both into one
application is expensive. Using IrControl and SIR/FIR
in one application would imply that two IR hardware
channels must be built-in. The Very Fast IR (VFIR,
min. 16 Mbit/s transfer rate over more than 1 m)
established in 1999.
What do I need to enable

IrDA Transmission?
The simplest way of optical interfacing in the SIR
mode is shown in figure 1. For pulse shaping and
recovery, the Vishay Semiconductors device
TOIM4232 is recommended. The front end including
transmitter and receiver should be realized for example by the integrated transceiver module TFDU4100
or other devices of the 4000 series. The TFDU4100
can also be directly connected to Super I/Os.
A transimpedance amplifier is used in the receiver for
input amplification. Its output signal is fed to the comparator input, whose reference level is adjusted to
efficiently suppress noise and interferences from the
ambient.
Additionally, the digital pulse-shaping circuit must be
inserted for shortening the pulse to be emitted to
1.6 Ps (i.e., 3/16 of the bit length at 115 kbit/s) and
pulse recovery of the detected signal to comply with
the IrDA standard. Only the active low bits (0) are
transmitted.
For the high-speed mode, the TFDU6102 or other
devices from the 6000 series are recommended to be
operated with e.g NSCs or SMCs IrDA-compatible
Super I/O circuits. Circuit proposals for the various
modes can be found in our application section. A
block diagram is shown in Figure 2.

IrDA-Standard - Physical Layer

Specification
In SIR mode, the data is represented by optical pulses
between 1.6 s and 3/16 of the bit length of the
RS232 data pulse in SIR mode. Pulse-length reduction is also applied in the higher frequency modes.
The limits of the standards are shown in tables 1 and
3. The optical radiant intensity and detector sensitivity
are adjusted to guarantee a point-to-point transmission in a cone of r15qover a distance of at least 1 m.
The radiant intensity and the sensitivity of the front
end can be increased to ensure a transmission over
3 m (see figure 3). Data from the optical interface
standard are documented in tables 2 to 4.
Media Interface Specification

Overall Links
There are two different sets of transmitter/ receiver
specifications. The first, referred to as Standard, is for
a link which operates from 0 to at least 1 meter. The
second, referred to as the Low Power Option, has a
shorter operating range, and is only defined up to
115.2 kbit/s. There are three possible links (see Table
1 below): Low Power Option to Low Power Option,
Standard to Low Power Option; Standard to Standard. The distance is measured between the optical
reference surfaces.The Bit Error Ratio (BER) shall
be no greater than 10-8. The link shall operate and
meet the BER specification over its range.
Signaling Rate and Pulse Duration: An IrDA serial

infrared interface must operate at 9.6 kbit/s. Additional allowable rates listed below are optional. Signaling rate and pulse duration specifications are
shown in table 2.
For all signaling rates up to and including 115.2 kbit/s
the minimum pulse duration is the same (the specification allows both a 3/16 of bit duration pulse and a
minimum pulse duration for the 115.2 kbit/s signal
(1.63 s minus the 0.22 s tolerance). The maximum
pulse duration is 3/16 of the bit duration, plus the
greater of the tolerance of 2.5 % of the bit duration, or
0.60 s.
For 0.576 Mbit/s and 1.152 Mbit/s, the maximum and
minimum pulse durations are the nominal 25 % of the
bit duration plus 5 % (tolerance) and minus 8 % (tolerance) of the bit duration.
For 4.0 Mbit/s, the maximum and minimum single
pulse durations are the nominal 25 % of the symbol
duration plus and minus a tolerance of 2 % of the
symbol duration. For 4.0 Mbit/s, the maximum and
minimum double pulse durations are 50 % of the symbol plus and minus a tolerance of 2 % of the symbol
duration. Double pulses may occur whenever two
adjacent chips require a pulse.
The link must meet the BER specification over the link
length range and meet the optical pulse constraints.

HHH (1,13) Modulation Code for the 16-Mbit/s VFIR Standard
The HHH (1, 13) modulation code has the following
salient features:
Code Rate:
2/3 ,
Maximal Duty Cycle:
1/3 (~ 33 %) ,
Average Duty Cycle:
~ 26 % ,
Minimal Duty Cycle:
1/12 (~ 8.3 %) ,
Run-Length Constraints:
(d, k) = (1, 13) ,
Longest Run of '10' s:
yyy'000'101'010'101'000'yyy ,
Chip Rate at Data Rate 16 Mbit/s:
24 Mchips/s ,
System Clock at Data Rate 16 Mbit/s:
N 12 MHz (where N t 4).

Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06
The HHH(1,13) code is a Run Length Limited (RLL)

code that provides both power efficiency and bandwidth efficiency at the high data rate. The signaling
rate of the code is 24 Mchips/s allowing a rise and fall
time of 19 ns. LED on time is further improved by having a 26 % average duty cycle for random data. The
lower duty cycle is achieved by scrambling the incoming data stream. The run length constraints
(d, k) = (1, 13) ensure an inactive chip after each
active chip, i.e. only single-chip-width pulses occur.
This feature allows a source or a receiver to exhibit a
long tail property. To take full advantage of the d = 1
feature of HHH(1, 13) in strong signal conditions,
clock and data recovery circuitry should be designed
to ignore the level of the chip following an active chip
and assume these chips are inactive. The 13 in
HHH(1, 13) denominates that the maximum number
of chips without a signal is 13. That limits the lower
cutoff frequency of the system and optimizes threshold trigger stability in receiver designs. The modulation code is enhanced with simple framesynchronized scrambler/descrambler mechanisms as
defined and described in the IrDA IrPhy 1.4 standard.
While such a scheme does not eliminate worst-case
duty cycle signal patterns in all specific cases, the
probabilities of their occurrence are reduced significantly on average. This leads to a better "eye" opening and reduced jitter in the recovered signal stream
for typical payload data.

The following five specifications form a set which can
be measured concurrently:
Maximum irradiance in angular range, mW/m2
Minimum irradiance in angular range, mW/m2
Half-angle, degrees
Bit Error Ratio, (BER)
Receiver Latency Allowance, ms
These measurements require an optical power
source and means to measure angles and BERs.
Since the optical power source must provide the
specified characteristics of the Active Output, calibration and control of this source can use the same
equipment as that required to measure the intensity
and timing characteristics. BER measurements
require some method to determine errors in the
received and decoded signal. The latency test
requires exercise of the node's transmitter to condition the receiver.
Definitions of the reference point etc., are the same as
for the Active Output Interface optical power measurements except that the test head is now an optical
power source with the in-band characteristics (peak
wavelength, rise and fall times, pulse duration, signaling rate and jitter) of the Active Output Interface. The
optical power source must also be able to provide the
maximum power levels listed in the Active Output
Specifications. It is expected that the minimum levels
can be attained by appropriately spacing the optical
source from the reference point.

Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06
Figure 4 illustrates the region over which the Optical

High State is defined. The receiver is operated
throughout this region and BER measurements are
made to verify the maximum and minimum requirements. The ambient conditions of A.1 (page 20) apply
during BER tests; BER measurements can be done
with worst case signal patterns. Unless otherwise
known, the test signal pattern should include maximum length sequences of "1"s (no light) to test noise
and ambient, and maximum length sequences of "0"s
(light) to test for latency and other overload conditions.
Latency is tested at the Minimum Irradiance in angular Range conditions. The receiver is conditioned by
the exercise of its associated transmitter. For rates up
to and including 1.152 Mbit/s, the conditioning signal
should include maximum length sequences of "0"s
(light) permitted for this equipment. For 4.0 Mbit/s
4 PPM operation, various data strings should be
used; the latency may be pattern dependent. The
receiver is operated with the minimum irradiance levels and BER measurements are made after the specified latency period for this equipment to verify
irradiance, half angle, BER and latency requirements.
The minimum allowable intensity value is indicated by
"minimum" in figure 5, since the actual specified value
is dependent upon the data rate, SIR or FIR.

Low Power Standard and Full Range Operation
The message that a Low Power device must be a
special design is often propagated, but is incorrect.
Full standard devices can be operated easily with
reduced IRED drive current to fulfill the low power
specification. However, devices specially designed

for Low Power applications with low profile package
are not able to cover the full standard because of limited efficiency and little drive current capability.

Transmission Distance
From figure 5, the transmission distance as a function
of the sensitivity (necessary irradiance on the detector) can be read. For example: Sensitivity given as a
minimum irradiance on the detector of 40 mW/m2,
combined with an intensity of 40 mW/sr, results in a
transmission distance of 1 m. A combination of a
detector with a minimum irradiance of 10 mW/m2 and
an emitter with 250 mW/sr can transmit over almost
five meters. Vishay Semiconductor transceivers work

well with standard remote control receivers and can
therefore be operated as remote control transmitters.

defined under ambient conditions listed in an appendix which has been reprinted in the following chapters.

Appendix A. Test Methods

Note - A.1 is Normative unless otherwise noted. The
rest of Appendix A and all of Appendix B are Informative, not Normative {i.e. it does not contain requirements, but is for information only}. Examples of
measurement test circuits and calibration are provided in IrDA Serial Infrared Physical Layer Measurement Guidelines.
A.1. Background Light and Electromagnetic Field

There are four ambient interference conditions in
which the receiver is to operate correctly. The conditions are to be applied separately:
Electromagnetic field: 3 V/m maximum (Refer to
IEC 61000-4-3. test level 2 for details) (For
devices that intend to connect with or operate in
the vicinity of a mobile phone or pager, a field of
30 V/m with frequency ranges from 800 MHz to
690 MHz and 1.4 GHz to 2.0 GHz including 80 %
amplitude modulation with a 1 kHz sine wave is
recommended. Refer to IEC 61000-4-3 test level 4
for details. The 30 V/m condition is a recommendation; 3 V/m is the normative condition.)
Sunlight: 10 kilolux maximum at the optical port
This is simulated with an IR source having a peak
wavelength within the range 850 nm to 900 nm
and a spectral width less than 50 nm biased to provide 490 W/cm2 (with no modulation) at the optical port. The light source faces the optical port.
This simulates sunlight within the IrDA spectral
range. The effect of longer wavelength radiation is
covered by the incandescent condition.
www.vishay.com
20
Incandescent Lighting: 1000 lux maximum. This

is produced with general service, tungsten filament, gas-filled, inside-frosted lamps in the
60 Watt to 150 Watt range to generate 1000 lux
over the horizontal surface on which the equipment under test rests. The light sources are above
the test area. The source is expected to have a filament temperature in the 2700 to 3050 degrees
Kelvin range and a spectral peak in the 850 nm to
1050 nm range.
Fluorescent Lighting: 1000 lux maximum This is
simulated with an IR source having a peak wavelength within the range 850 nm to 900 nm and a
spectral width of less than 50 nm biased and modulated to provide an optical square wave signal
(0 W/cm2 minimum and 0.3 W/cm2 peak amplitude with 10 % to 90 % rise and fall times less than
or equal to 100 ns) over the horizontal surface on
which the equipment under test rests. The light
sources are above the test area. The frequency of
the optical signal is swept over the frequency
range from 20 kHz to 200 kHz. Due to the variety
of fluorescent lamps and the range of IR emissions, this condition is not expected to cover all circumstances. It will provide a common basis for
IrDA operation.

IRDC, Part 2: Protocol

Infrared Data Communication According the IrDA Standard

Part 2: Protocol
IrDA Protocol Stack
The IrDA protocol stack provides hardware and software architecture guidelines for designing an IrDA
compliant system. Figure 1 shows the different layers
in the stack. As a minimum, compliance to IrPHYS,
IrLAP, and IrLMP is required. Optional sections of the
protocol include the Higher Speed Extensions
(1.15 and 4 Mbit/s), IrCOMM, TinyTP & PnP.
17265
Figure 1. IrDA Protocol Stack
IrDA Link Access Protocol (IrLAP)

IrLAP, is derived from an existing asynchronous data
communications standard (an adaptation of HDLC). It
provides guidelines for link access in which the software searches for other machines to connect to (sniffing), recognizes other machines (discovery), resolves
addressing conflicts, initiates connection and information exchange, and manages disconnection. During
data transfer, IrLAP is responsible for providing reliable error detection, retransmission, and flow control.
While the discovery and address conflict resolution
procedures are somewhat unique to IrLAP, the link
initialization/ shutdown, connection startup, disconnection and information transfer procedures all
resemble similar operations in HDLC protocols and
are adapted to the IrDA serial infrared environment.
A link operates essentially as follows:
A device (primary) will want to connect to another
device (either by automatic detection via the discovery and sniffing capability of IrLAP, or via direct user
request). A data link involves at least one primary
Document Number: 82504
Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06
(commanding) station and one or more secondary

(responding) stations, whose roles IrLAP has the
responsibility of managing. The primary station has
responsibility for the data link. All transmissions over
a data link go to or from the primary station and can
be point-to-point or point-to-multi-point. There is
always one and only one primary station while all
other stations must be secondary stations.
After obeying the media access rules the primary will
send connection request information at 9600 bit/s to
the other device, this data will include information
such as its address and its other capabilities such as
data rate, etc. The responding device will assume the
secondary role and, after obeying the media access
rules, return information that contains its address and
capabilities. The primary and secondary will then
change the data rate and other link parameters to the
common set defined by the capabilities described in
the information transfer. The primary will then send
data to the secondary confirming the link data rate
and capabilities. The two devices are now connected
and the data is transferred between primary and secondary under the complete control of the primary.
Rules are defined which ensure that the secondary
and primary are both able to efficiently transfer data.
Any station that is capable can contend to play the primary station role. The role of primary is determined
dynamically when the link connection is established
and continues until the connection is closed (the
exception is that there is a method provided for a primary and secondary on a point to point link to
exchange roles without closing the connection).

IrDA Infrared Link Management Protocol
(IrLMP)
Once a connection is established, IrLMP manages
the available functions and applications between the
communicating devices. IrLMP determines the capabilities of the connected devices (discovery) and manages negotiation of link parameters and correct data
transfer (link control). The link management framework also provides a means for a device to establish
coexisting access to an IR connection between multiple devices (multiplexing).
Discovery occurs when two devices first encounter
each other. Each service and each protocol on a
device will have registered with the link management.
The information registered includes both standard
and protocol specific information. An application can
query the capabilities of devices within range.
Once an application on one device has determined
which service or protocol it wishes to use, it requests
the link control to use the protocol. The link management framework allows multiplexing of application or
transport protocols on the same link connection at the
same time.
Multifunctional devices may have requirements for
the IR link to support concurrent activities. While the
IrDA Link Access Protocol, IrLAP, provides a single
connection between a given pair of IrDA compliant
devices, it provides no means for multiple application
components to share coexisting access to that connection.
A useful feature set of capabilities would have the
mobile user wishing his handheld/PDA or note-book
computer to synchronize systems, check/send/
receive electronic mail, reconcile scheduling &
address book (PIM) data, and also initiate deferred
printing when it makes contact with the owner's desktop personal computer (PC) and network gateway.
Each activity may be controlled by distinct application
components within each device (mobile unit and PC)
and each component has a separate requirement to
locate its peer component and establish the relevant
connection.
www.vishay.com
22
IrDA Link Management Protocol, IrLMP, is a mandatory component of IrDA compliant devices and
addresses both the previous needs mentioned.
Connection multiplexing services provided by
IrLMP Multiplexer (LM-MUX).
Location of peer application components supported by IrLMP Information Access Service(LMIAS)
IrLMP Multiplexer (LM-MUX) provides multiplexed
channels on top of an IrLAP connection. Each of
these so called Link Service Access Point or LSAPconnections (distinguished from IrLAP connections)
carries a logical separated information stream. The
multiplexer operates in two modes. In multiplexed
mode, the multiplexer will accept data from any of its
clients (transport entities or directly bound applications). In exclusive mode a single LSAP-connection
claims access to the IR medium.
IrLMP Information Access Service (LM-IAS) is a
direct client of LM-MUX and operates in a sclient
servers manner. Application components that wish to
make themselves accessible to peer components in
other devices "describe" themselves by creating an
object whose attributes carry the essential parameters required to establish a connection between the
two peers. An application component seeking a peer
application component inspects the objects within the
remote LM-IAS information base. Assuming a suitable object exists, the connection parameters and the
mechanism are retrieved, which is accessible at the
top of the LM-IAS.
MUX is used to enumerate the devices available. The
resulting list of devices may be sorted/prioritized on
the basis of the information hints supplied in discovery responses.
IrDA Physical Layer (IrPHY)

The Physical Layer provides guidelines for the physical connection of equipment using IR and defines the
specifications which infrared transceivers must be
able to meet. The specifications of the Physical Layer
were already described in a previous chapter.

Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06

IrDA Flow Control Mechanism (Tiny TP)
Whilst IrLAP provides a flow-control mechanism
between peer IrLAP entities, the introduction of multiplexed channels above IrLAP by IrLMP LM-MUX
introduces a problem. Reliance on IrLAP to provide
flow-control for a multiplexed channel can result in
dead-locks if the consumption of data from one multiplexed channel is dependent on data flowing in an
adjacent multiplexed channel. Conversely, if inbound
data on a multiplexed channel cannot be consumed
and the underlying IrLAP connection cannot be flow
controlled off due to the possibility of deadlock,
inbound data (freshly arrived or buffered) must be discarded in the event of buffer exhaustion. Sadly this
reduces the reliable delivery service provided by
IrLAP to a best effort delivery service provided by
IrLMP LM-MUX (when multiple multiplexed channels
are in operation).There are at least two possible solutions for restoring a reliable delivery service above
IrLMP LM-MUX.
Provide a per application stream flow-control
mechanism above LM-MUX between peer application entities. This ensures that there is always
sufficient buffer space available to accommodate
in-bound application data.
Provide a per application stream retransmission
mechanism above LM-MUX that recovers from the
loss of data that arises if inbound buffering
become exhausted.
The Tiny TP protocol provides:
Independently flow controlled transport connections
Segmentation and re-assembly
IrDA Serial & Parallel Port Emulation

(IrCOMM)
IrCOMM defines the emulation of Serial and Parallel
ports over the IrLMP/IrLAP protocol stack. The motivation for IrCOMM comes from the many printing and
communication applications which use standard communication APIs to talk to other devices via serial and
parallel ports. By making IrDA protocols accessible
via these APIs, many existing applications including
printing can run over an IrDA infrared link without
change. This intent to support so-called legacy applications is the basis for IrCOMM. New applications are
encouraged to take better advantage of IrDA protocols by using their capabilities directly.
Emulating COMM ports raises a number of questions,

Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06
starting with what kinds of ports will be emulated.

IrCOMM emulates RS-232 (EIA/TIA-232-E) serial
ports, and Centronics parallel ports like those found
on most personal computers. The four service types
used to emulate these ports are the core of this specification. Before discussing service types, however,
there are some basic differences between wired and
IrDA communications to consider.
Wired communications methods can send streams
of information in both directions at once, because
there are multiple wires (some to send data on, some
to receive data from). With infrared, there is the equivalent of only one wire (the IR path through the air).
This has the following implications:
IrDA protocols send packets one way at a time.If a
device tried to send data and listen for data at the
same time, it would "hear" itself and not the device
it wants to communicate with. The way IrDA
devices achieve two way communications is to
take turns, also known as "turning the link around".
This happens at least every 500 ms, and can be
made more frequent as necessary. This latency
makes it impossible to perfectly emulate the wired
COMM environment - very timing sensitive operations will be disrupted.Fortunately, many communication tasks are not so sensitive, and can
therefore use IrCOMM.
All of the information carried on multiple wires
must be carried on the single IR "wire". This is
accomplished by subdividing the packets into data
and control parts. In this way a logical data channel and control channel are created, and the various wires can be emulated.
On a different level, IrCOMM is intended for legacy
applications, applications that know about serial or
parallel ports but know nothing about IrDA protocols.
IrDA protocols, however, have very different procedures and APIs from wired COMMs. Suppose, for
example, a word processing application wants to print
via IR using IrDA protocols, an application must first
"discover" the printer (locate a printer in IR-space),
then check the printercs IAS to find information
needed to connect. Since the word processing application (a legacy application) knows nothing about
this, IrCOMM maps these operations into normal
COMM operations so that it is completely transparent.
For the purposes of IrCOMM a complete communication path involves two applications running on different devices (the communication endpoints) with
a communication segment between them. The
www.vishay.com
23

communication segment may consist solely of IR or
IR connections to a network. The figure below shows
the complete communication path.
Application

IrCOMM is intended to cover applications that make

use of the serial and parallel ports of the devices in
which they reside. In the simple case, the communication segment is an IR link from one device to
another (direct connect). In the case where the communication segment is a network, IR is used for the
path between the device and a networking connection
device like a modem. Modems communicate through
the network using wire, radio or IR. IrCOMM is only
concerned with the connection between devices in
the direct connect case or between the device and a
modem in the network case. There are other configurations that IrCOMM can support such as modules
that communicate via IR on one side and provide a
wired interface on the other side. These devices are
not really modems but offer a similar service and thus,
are not explicitly discussed.
Basically two device types exist that IrCOMM must
accommodate. Type 1 devices are the communication end points such as computers and printers. Type
2 devices are those that are part of the communication segment such as modems. Though IrCOMM
does not make a distinction between these two device
types in the protocol, accommodating both types of
devices impacts the IrCOMM protocol. The figures
below illustrate how the two IrCOMM device types fit
into communication paths.

The information transferred between two IrCOMM

entities has been defined to support both type 1 and
type 2 devices. Some information is only needed by
type 2 devices while other information is intended to
be used by both. In the protocol no distinction is made
www.vishay.com
24
between type 1 and type 2 therefore, it is up to the

IrCOMM implementor to determine if the information
passed in the IrCOMM protocol is of use to the implementation. Since the devices do not know the type of
the other device in the communication path, they
must pass all the information specified by the protocol
of which they have knowledge.
IrCOMM emulates serial and parallel ports. However,
printing and communications applications use communication ports in a variety of ways. To address this
need, IrCOMM provides four service types or classes:
3-Wire raw, 3-Wire, 9-Wire, and Centronics. The service types fall into 2 camps, which are called raw and
cooked; the differences hinge on whether a control
channel is supplied and the type of flow control used.
3-Wire raw provides a data channel only, and uses
IrLAP flow control. The "cooked" service types (3Wire, 9-Wire, and Centronics) support a control channel, and employ Tiny TP flow control.
3-Wire raw - This service type can be used for serial
or parallel emulation when a single exclusive connection is acceptable, and only the data circuits need to
be emulated (no non-data circuits in a corresponding
wired setting carry any information). The name of this
service comes from the notion of emulating the minimum three RS-232 circuits required for full duplex
communications. The circuits are shown below.

This connection carries data received

Here are the main attributes of the 3-Wire Raw service class:
Only one non-IAS IrLMP connection can be
open if 3-Wire raw is used - all other connections
must be closed before it can be established, and
others must wait until the raw connection is closed
before they can connect.This is because 3-Wire
raw uses the flow control features of IrLAP, which
can result in a deadlock condition if more than one
non-IAS connection is open.
Minimal Implementation. All the IrCOMM data is
sent directly via IrLMP in IrLMP packets. All data
that follows the IrLMP Mux bytes in an IrLMP
packet is IrCOMM data, (i.e., it is the information
that would travel over the data line(s) of a wired
interface). No control channel is available to comDocument Number: 82504
Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06

municate information about the state of other
leads (e.g., RTS/CTS), software flow control settings, and the like. A service which employs 3-Wire
raw must be able to do without that information.
The link is merely a raw channel for the movement
of data.
This service can be used to emulate both serial
and parallel ports. This may seem counterintuitive (who has ever heard of a 3-Wire parallel
port?), but if you remove the non-data circuits
(which 3-Wire raw does not emulate), serial and
parallel are equivalent, i.e., just streams of data.
IrLPT is an IrDA service in use on commercially available printing devices. It is equivalent to 3-Wire raw in
functionality, but is slightly different in how it uses the
IAS.
3-Wire - Like 3-Wire raw, the name of this service
comes from the minimum three RS-232 circuits
required for full duplex communications. Like 3-Wire
raw, it is intended for both serial and parallel ports.
However, there are the following important differences to be noted:
3-Wire service class makes use of Tiny TP flow
control, so that it may coexist with other connections that employ higher level (not IrLAP) flow control (including other cooked IrCOMM connections).
It is not limited like 3-Wire raw to a single IrLMP
connection.
3-Wire service class supports a control channel for
sending information like data format. The control
channel mechanism is described in the chapter
titled Frame Formats and the Control Channel.
Because of the need for flow control and the use
of the control channel, the 3-Wire service type
uses a more elaborate frame format.
9-Wire - The name of this service class comes from
the notion of emulating the 9 circuits of an
RS-232 interface which are part of a standard IBM
compatible PC. Unlike the previous services it is true
to its name;
9-Wire emulates serial ports only. Three of the circuits
are the same as described in the 3-Wire service
classes. The other six are listed below.

Like 3-Wire, it uses the Tiny TP flow control mechanism. It also uses the same control channel
mechanism for sending information like data format.
The control channel is used to send the states of
the other RS-232 leads as they change.
Centronics - This service is intended to emulate the
function of a standard Centronics interface. This service is for parallel ports only. Some attributes of this
service are listed below.
It uses the Tiny TP flow control mechanism.
It uses the same control channel mechanism used
in 3-Wire to send the status/changes of the additional circuits.
IrDA Object Exchange Protocol (IrOBEX)

One of the most basic and desirable uses of the IrDA
infrared communication protocols is simply to send an
arbitrary "thing", or data object, from one device to
another, and to make it easy for both application
developers and users to do so. We refer to this as
object exchange (uncapitalized), and it is the subject
of the protocol IrOBEX (for IrDA Object Exchange,
OBEX for short). OBEX is a compact, efficient, binary
protocol that enables a wide range of devices to
exchange data in a simple and spontaneous manner.
OBEX is being defined by members of the Infrared
Data Association to interconnect the full range of
devices that support IrDA protocols. It is not, however, limited to use in an IrDA environment.
OBEX performs a function similar to HTTP, a major
protocol underlying the World Wide Web. However,
OBEX works for the many very useful devices that
cannot afford the substantial resources required for
an HTTP server, and it also targets devices with different usage models from the Web. OBEX is enough
like HTTP to serve as a compact final hop to a device
"not quite" on the Web.
A major use of OBEX is a "Squirt" or "Slurp" application, allowing rapid and ubiquitous communications
among portable devices or in dynamic environments.
For instance, a laptop user squirts a file to another
laptop or PDA; an industrial computer slurps status
and diagnostic information from a piece of factory
floor machinery; a digital camera squirts its pictures
into a film development kiosk, or if lost can be queried
(slurped) for the electronic business card of its owner.
However, OBEX is not limited to quick connect-transfer-disconnect scenarios - it also allows sessions in
which transfers take place over a period of time, maintaining the connection even when it is idle.
www.vishay.com
25

PCs, pagers, PDAs, phones, auto-tellers, information
kiosks, calculators, data collection devices, watches,
home electronics, industrial machinery, medical
instruments, automobiles, pizza ovens, and office
equipment are all candidates for using OBEX. To support this wide variety of platforms, OBEX is designed
to transfer flexibly defined "objects"; for example,
files, diagnostic information, electronic business
cards, bank account balances, electrocardiogram
strips, or itemized receipts at the grocery store.
"Object" has no lofty technical meaning here; it is
intended to convey flexibility in what information can
be transferred. OBEX can also be used for Command
and Control functions directives to TVs, VCRs, overhead projectors, computers and machinery.
OBEX consists of two major parts: a model for representing objects (and information that describes the
objects), and a session protocol to provide a structure
for the "conversation" between devices.
OBEX is designed to fulfill the following major goals:
IrDA Infrared Transfer Picture (IrTran-P)

IrTran-P (Infrared Transfer Picture) is an image communication scheme for a digital camera based on the
Infrared Communication Standard specification created by IrDA. The IrTran-P specification should generally be used together with the IrDA standard
specifications.
IrTran-P is placed on the upper layer of IrSIR, IrLAP,
IrLMP, TinyTP and IrCOMM which is already established as IrDA standard specifications. SCEP (Simple
Command Execute Protocol) and a bFTP (Binary File
Transfer Protocol) are necessary for exchanging an
image between devices and mutually exchanging
properties of the devices. An image format (file) called
UPF (Uni Picture Format) is exchanged on such an
entity (UPF is the image format out of the category of
IrDA, and can be found in the appendix of the IrTranP specification). IrTran-P is a generic name given to
all of these components.

IrDA SIR 1.0 (115.2kbit/s) / SIR 1.1 (4.0Mbit/s)
SCEP establishes a session on IrCOMM and provides a transparent session which notifies an upper
layer of a command. The procedure of SCEP is developed by a lower layer making use of an advantage
that an IrDA protocol is "error free", as a high speed
session layer matching the IrDA protocol.
As is apparent from its name, bFTP provides a service for transferring a binary file. The bFTP assumes
a virtual file system together with a communication
protocol. The bFTP has an aspect which enables it to
be easily implemented, because it assumes such a
simple file system that will allow "a binary file to be
stored with its name".
Moreover, bFTP is characterized by a query function
which allows it to query functions and properties of a
device and the image format available in the theme of
this section, i.e., the image transfer. This query function simplifies the user interface of a digital camera,
Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06

and allows the most suitable data of an image to be
transferred between the digital cameras or printers
facing each other. In addition, this function makes it
possible for the user to transfer, communicate or print
suitable image data regardless of the difference in
platform or model just by "selecting a photograph to
be sent and pushing a transmission button".
As mentioned earlier, UPF is the standard of an
image format not included in the category of the IrDA
standard. The IrDA standards were originally provided for defining and standardizing a protocol in connection with infrared communications. Therefore, it is
out of the scope to define the contents of an image
transfer. However, in order to ensure mutual connectivity as an application of a digital camera, it is
required to decide an image format so that image data
sent via infrared communication is reliably reproduced. Therefore, in advocating IrTran-P as a standard to IrDA, the specific contents of an image format
of IrTran-P are defined and described in an appendix.
UPF is an image file format based on the JPEG base
line. JFIF, which is a JPEG file, makes an image of
various color forms available and employs a high level
of compression scheme. For this reason, JFIF may be
regarded as the industry standard of an image file format today. Since JPEG is a format enabling a variety
of color forms, a compromise is required to some
extent in order to realize the standard at a low cost, for
example adopting only a part of the format as the
standard. In UPF, among the formats included in the
base line of JPEG, the format which allows the
devices at least to reliably display and mutually transfer an image is defined as an indispensable one, and
others are regarded as an option. For more details,
please refer to the sections of UPF in the later part of
this document.
It is characteristic of a digital camera that all the data
accompanying a photograph taken by a digital camera, such as a photo-taking date/time and the orientation (direction) of an image and other additional data,
cannot be covered by the data within the JPEG format. In view of such a background, UPF is designed
so that data is separated and stored on its own
header arranged in the file without changing the
image data scheme of JPEG Base Line at all. In addition, the header has expendability and allows a vendor-unique function to be added thereto. This makes
it possible to separate the data necessary for a digital
video camera from the data necessary for display and
expansion of an image. This is advantageous in that
the existing JPEG techniques can be used where
they stand and do not have to be changed. In a compact device like a digital camera, when using existing
Rev.1.4, 20-Sep-06
hardware or software, e.g. in the case where an algorithm of JPEG compression/expansion or the like is
performed by hardware or is fixedly used as firm
ware, it is undesirable to change JPEG itself.
As a further advanced step, UPF is designed so that
additional data on an ambiguous point within the data
of JPEG scheme is arranged in the header part. The
additional data includes factors such as white level,
black level and color-difference signal, necessary for
reproducing an image with correct brightness and
color.
Although the format of a digital camera is being examined by various organizations, a conclusive decision
has not yet been made. In most cases, an arrangement such as a new addition of a tag to JPEG or the
like has been proposed. However, it will take a long
time to reach a conclusion satisfactory to all the companies concerned. The approach of making the best
use of an existing standard, wherein the data necessary for a digital camera is separated and added so as
to assure expendability, is more realistic than the
approach of waiting for a new standard to be defined
and finalized.
Though UPF is defined as an appendix, it is indispensable in order that the IrTran-P standard is able to
support an image format of a UPF scheme. In IrTranP, a sender starts an operation which transfers picture data from a digital camera.
Operation by User
With the use of "selection of a specific picture" and
a "transmission button" the user puts the digital
camera of the sender into a transmission state.
It is assumed that the device of a receiver is
always in a receiving state or put info a picture
data receiving state by a "reception button".
Establishment of Session by SCEP
The digital camera of the sender carries out a discovery procedure using IrDA protocols and performs a connection for the physical to IrCOMM
layers of IrDA protocols in accordance with IrDA
protocols. When an IrDA transmission path is
established, SCEP makes a "session establishment request" from the sender to the receiver of a
digital camera, printer or PC. If the receiver is
implemented with SCEP, it must make a response
of either "session established" or "session establishment rejected".
Query Operation by bFTP (Query function)
When a session by SCEP is established, the digital camera of the sender issues a Query request in
order to recognize the picture processing functions of the receiver. The information mutually
www.vishay.com
27

exchanged by the Query request includes the
transmittable / receivable picture size, the picture
compression format and the basic picture size of
the device. Since this information is exchanged
before transfer of picture data, the picture data can
be transferred in "the most reasonable format"
between devices of different platforms.
In IrTran-P, a "mandatory format" is defined
among the picture data formats of both sides,
whereby a picture can be reliably exchanged
between devices of different grades or manufacturers.
Furthermore, the power supply condition of the
device, the receivable data capacity etc. should be
queried. This makes it possible to deal with the
applications of a portable system.
Transfer of Picture Data by bFTP
Transfer of picture data is started once the most
appropriate picture format for both the sender and
the receiver has been determined by Query.
SCEP performs the data transfer at a high transmission rate by making use of IrDA protocols. After
the file transfer is completed, next picture data
may be subsequently transmitted, or a session
may be disconnected by SCEP. (Accordingly,
even a simple model can transmit more than one
picture in succession.)
Completion of Session by SCEP
When the picture transfer has been completed, the
digital camera of the sender disconnects a session
by SCEP. Thereafter, a disconnection request is
issued for IrCOMM and lower layers of IrDA protocols and the picture transfer operation has been
completed.
IR Mobile Communication Standard

(IrMC)
The IrDA IrMC specification defines the rules for utilization of IR in wireless communications equipment,
e.g., in mobile handsets, PDAs, PCs, notebook computers and pagers.
The IrMC specification enables IrMC Object
exchange between a variety of applications. For
instance, the IrMC specification enables easy
exchange of:
business cards between Phone Book Applications
text messages between Messaging Applications
calendar and todo items between Calendar Applications
short notes between Note applications
www.vishay.com
28
The IrMC Call Control specification enables call control of mobile handsets. The IrMC Audio Specification
enables real time audio transmission respectively.
These two specifications are for communication
between a handset and PC or a handset and car cradle.
Data Transmission
The IrMC framework uses the existing IrDA specifications as much as possible. IrDA connection-oriented
services are used as is, and the connectionless service (Ultra) is further defined to be applicable to IrMC
devices.
Physical Layer Considerations
Because the power consumption requirements of the
IrMC devices are very critical, a low power option for
these devices has been specified already in the
IrPHY version 1.2. This specification defines a lighter
physical layer and allows up to ten times savings in
the LED drive current. It should be noted that this
specification, which only expects the Specifications
for IR Mobile Communications (IrMC) Version 1.1
IrMC devices to be capable of 20 cm link distance
from IrMC device to IrMC device and 30 cm from IrMC
device to a standard IrDA device, is optional and the
original IrDA-SIR values may be used in all IrMC
device implementations. Despite the shorter communication range of some IrMC devices, all devices must
clearly be compatible with the IrDA-SIR in the short
range.
Devices supporting IrCOMM communications with
personal computers should realize that the RF interference shielding of PCs may be imperfect.
For Mobile Communication applications standard
transceivers, fulfilling the IrDA physical layer specification can be applied. However, especially in mobile
phone application the demand for a high EMI immunity must be considered. Vishay Semiconductors supplies devices suited for these applications.

IR Financial Messaging (IrFM)
IrSimpleTM - Simple Connect Standard
The IrFM profiles have been developed to enable a

digital payment system which will cut transaction
costs for the merchant and the financial institutions,
cut charge-back fees to merchants through the electronic warehousing of transaction receipts, and provide a simpler method of financial transaction tracking
to individuals for personal and business use. In simple words: IR enabled devices as mobile phones or
PDAs will include the credit card information and the
transaction will be done over the air by Infrared beaming.
IrFM provides a quick and seamless way for users of
infrared enabled portable devices, such as PDAs and
mobile phones, to pay for services and merchandise
by beaming their "soft" credit cards, debit cards,
checks, cash, or other financial instruments to a point
of sale device (POS), ATM, vending machine or other
compatible payment terminal. The IrFM Profiles
define the minimum technical requirements needed to
implement the use cases described. Potential devices
implementing these Profiles include pagers, PDAs
and mobile phones communicating with POS terminals, vending machines, ATMs and other existing
POS devices enabled with infrared adapters, or new
devices with IrDA capability built in.
IrFM is compatible with the Ir Physical Layer standard
and any physical layer compliant hardware transceiver will support IrFM.
Early adopters of this new financial messaging scenario will include the many millions of users of IrDA
enabled PDA's and mobile phones; paying for meals
at restaurants and fast food outlets, buying gas at the
pump, making purchases at all types of stores, going
to the movies, using public transportation systems
and a host of other applications made possible by the
electronic wallet concept.
The manual card swipe/card reader interaction
between the consumer's physical card and the point
of sale terminal is replaced by the consumers handheld device and an IR-enabled point of sale terminal.
After the transaction has been "beamed", the backend processing of the transaction is treated as if the
process had occurred by card swipe. No backend
processing changes are required.
IrSimple (Acronym: IrSC), is one of the latest additions to the upper layer protocols, it does not replace
but enhances most of the other application based protocols by providing a more efficient mechanism to
transfer specific object data formats such as graphic
files that are typically associated with small portable
devices maintaining the lowest usage of memory.
Frequent scenarios are the transmission of pictures
between mobile phones as well as from mobiles to TV
sets. This protocol also relies on the binding Access
and Management protocols.
Because it must maintain a degree of integrity with
other applications protocol that would also allow it to
handle standard bidirectional transmission of small
data files, it makes use of a sequence manager protocol IrSMC for the segmentation and reassembly of
frames (flow control), primarily between the application protocols and the link management protocol
IrLMP. Unlike with other robust and complex data
transfer protocols, IrSC is specifically aimed at visual
(graphical data transfers). It is not mandatory for the
receiving station to maintain a bidirectional link
because successful transmission of data is visually
ackknowledged.
The Infrared Data Association (IrDA) announced the
availability of the IrSimple Protocol and Profile Specifications under the brand name SimpleShotTM. Simple Shot enables mobile devices like Camera Phones
to wireless transmit digital images to similarly enabled
Televisions, Monitors, Projectors and Photo Kiosks.
SimpleShot frees the billions of digital images trapped
in Camera Phones and PDAs, allowing them to be
viewed on large screens or quickly printed. The IrDA
Special Interesting Group (SIG) developed and perfected SimpleShot for fast, wireless communication
between mobile devices and digital home appliances.

Note: In addition to the thermodynamic temperature (symbol T), expressed in kelvins, use is
also made of Celsius temperature (symbol t )

T0 = 273.15 K by definition. To express Celsius
temperature, the unit "degree Celsius", which
is equal to the unit "kelvin" is used; in this case,
"degree Celsius" is a special name used in

visible radiation
Any optical radiation capable of causing a

Note: There are no precise limits for the spectral range of visible radiation since they depend
upon the amount of radiant power reaching the
retina and the responsivity of the observer. The
lower limit is generally taken between 360 nm
and 400 nm and the upper limit between
760 nm and 830 nm

sr
steradian (sr)
SI unit of solid angle :
Solid angle that, having its vertex at the centre
of a sphere, cuts off an area of the surface of
the sphere equal to that of a square with sides
of length equal to the radius of the sphere.
(ISO, 31/1-2.1, 1978)
Example:
The unity solid angle, in terms of geometry, is
the angle subtended at the center of a sphere
by an area on its surface numerically equal to
the square of the radius (see figures below)
Other than the figures might suggest, the
shape of the area doesn't matter at all. Any
shape on the surface of the sphere that holds
the same area will define a solid angle of the
same size. The unit of the solid angle is the
steradian (sr). Mathematically, the solid angle
is dimensionless, but for practical reasons, the
steradian is assigned

are taken from the current editions of IEC60050

Radiant and Luminous Quantities and Their Units
These two kinds of quantities have the same basic
symbols, identified respectively, where necessary, by
the subscript e (energy) or v (visual), e.g.)e, )v. See
note.
Note: Photopic and scotopic quantities. - Luminous
(photometric) quantities are of two kinds, those used
for photopic vision and those used for scotopic vision.
The wording of the definitions in the two cases being
almost identical, a single definition is generally sufficient with the appropriate adjective, photopic or
scotopic added where necessary.
The symbols for scotopic quantities are prime
()'v, I'v, etc), but the units are the same in both cases.

Rev. 1.4, 06-Oct-06

The radiometric terms are used to describe the quantities of optical radiation.
The relevant radiometric units are:
In general, optical radiation is measured in radiometric units. Luminous (photometric) units are used when
optical radiation is weighted by the sensitivity of the
human eye, correctly spoken, by the CIE standard
photometric observer (Ideal observer having a relative spectral responsivity curve that conforms to the
V(O) function for photopic vision or to the V'(O) function for scotopic vision, and that complies with the
summation law implied in the definition of luminous
flux).
Note: With a given spectral distribution of a radiometric quantity the equivalent photometric quantity can
be evaluated. However, from photometric units without knowing the radiometric spectral distribution in
general one cannot recover the radiometric quantities.

Relation between distance r, irradiance (illuminance) Ee (Ev) and intensity Ie (Iv)

The relation between intensity of a source and the
resulting irradiance in the distance r is given by the
basic square root rule law.
An emitted intensity Ie generates in a distance r the
irradiance Ee = Ie/r2.
This relationship is not valid under near field conditions and should be used not below a distance d
smaller than 5 times the emitter source diameter.

Absolute maximum ratings
Optical and electrical characteristics
Typical characteristics (diagrams)
Dimensions (mechanical data)
Additional information on device performance is provided if necessary.
The thermal resistance junction ambient (RthJA)

quoted is that which would be measured without artificial cooling, i.e., under worst-case conditions.
Temperature coefficients, on the other hand, are
listed together with the associated parameters under
"Optical and Electrical Characteristics".
Description
Typical Characteristics (Diagrams)
The following information is provided: Type number,

semiconductor materials used, sequence of zones,
technology used, device type and, if necessary, construction.
Also, short-form information on the typical applications and special features is given.
Besides the static (dc) and dynamic (ac) characteristics, a family of curves is given for specified operating
conditions. Here, the typical independence of individual characteristics is shown.
Absolute Maximum Ratings

These define maximum permissible operational and
environmental conditions. If any one of these conditions is exceeded, this could result in the destruction
of the device. Unless otherwise specified, an ambient
temperature of 25 r3 C is assumed for all absolute
maximum ratings. Most absolute ratings are static
characteristics; if they are measured by a pulse
method, the associated measurement conditions are
stated. Maximum ratings are absolute (i.e., interdependent).
Any equipment incorporating semiconductor devices
must be designed so that even under the most unfavorable operating conditions, the specified maximum
ratings of the devices used are never exceeded.
These ratings could be exceeded because of
changes in supply voltage, the properties of other
components used in this equipment, control settings,
load conditions, drive level, environmental conditions
and the properties of the devices themselves (i.e.,
ageing).
Some thermal data is given under the heading "Absolute Maximum Ratings" (e.g., junction temperature,
storage temperature range, total power dissipation).
This is because it imposes a limit on the application
range of the device.

Rev. 1.1, 29-Sep-05
Optical and Electrical Characteristics

The most important operational optical and electrical
characteristics (minimum, typical and maximum values) are grouped under this heading, together with
associated test conditions supplemented with curves.
Dimensions (Mechanical Data)

In this section, important dimensions and connection
sequences are given, supplemented by a circuit diagram. Case outline drawings carry DIN-, JEDEC or
commercial designations. Information on angle of
sensitivity or intensity and weight completes the list of
mechanical data.
Note:
If the dimensional information does not include any
tolerances, then the following applies:
Lead length and mounting hole dimensions are minimum values. Radiant sensitive or emitting area
respectively are typical, all other dimensions are maximum.
Any device accessories must be ordered separately
and the order number must be quoted.

Moisture Proof Packing
The reel with the taped components is packed in a
moisture proof aluminum bag to protect the devices
from absorbing moisture during transportation and storage. This bag finally is packed in a cardboard box. On
the reel as well as on the bag and the box are labels,
which are described in the following (see figure 4). This
is an example and little variations may be between different plants.
Pb-free information is part of the bar code label, but

when it is missing a "lead (Pb)-free"-label (figure 8)
may be attached. In addition the "Moisture-Sensitive
Identification Label (MSID)" is applied (figure 9).

Recommended Method of Storage
Dry box storage is recommended as soon as the dry
bag has been opened to prevent moisture absorption.
The following conditions should be observed, if dry
boxes are not available:
Storage temperature 10 qC to 30 qC
Storage humidity d60 % RH max.
After more than 72 hours under these conditions
moisture content will be too high for reflow soldering.
In case of moisture absorption, the devices will
recover to the former condition by drying under the
conditions given in the label on the aluminium bag as
shown in figure 5. Such an EIA JEDEC Standard

JSTD-020 Level 4 label is included on all dry bags
(see figure 10).
ESD Precaution
Proper storage and handling procedures should be
followed to prevent ESD damage to the devices especially when these are removed from the Antistatic
Shielding Bag. ElectroStatic Sensitive Deviceswarning labels (figure 6) are affixed on the packaging.

Surface Mount Assembly Instruction

Soldering Process
When assembling IrDC transceivers on a printed
circuit board (PCB), it is useful to have an understanding of the properties of the materials used during manufacturing.
While IrDC transceivers use semiconductor dice
and other constituents processed in the semiconductor industry, there are considerable differences
between transceivers and other semiconductor
devices. One of the most important differences is
the molding material that is used for its manufacture.
Packaging material used for transceivers must be
transparent to infrared radiation in order to emit and
receive optical signals. However, visible light might
disturb the proper performance of the transceiver
ASIC. A special dye is mixed into the encapsulant to
block visible light. This results in the transceiver
appearing black. The need for good optical performance requires the use of pure resin. No other
ingredients can be added.
The encapsulant used for standard integrated
circuits (IC), however, is a mixture of resin
(typically 30 %) and other ingredients (e.g. nearly
70% silica sand). This mixture results in more uniform mechanical properties of semiconductor die,
leadframe and encapsulant.
Figure 1 and figure 2 show the difference between
filled and unfilled epoxy resin.
The following table 1 shows the main differences
between the two types of mold compound

A standard molded integrated circuit will have its

constituents nicely matched to each other in terms
of thermal expansion. The typical IC package

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06
is rather free of mechanical stress compared

to an IrDC transceiver, which experience more
mechanical stresses during manufacturing.
www.vishay.com
53

Moisture Sensitivity
The high rate of moisture ingress is another property
of the optical clear molding compound. The
saturation value for room temperature of moisture
intake is roughly a factor of ten larger than for filled
molding compound. Due to this high rate of
moisture ingress transceivers are more prone to the
"popcorn effect".
Any possible void (delamination, bubble) inside the
package will be filled very quickly with moisture.
Even the whole package can soak up a considerable amount of moisture. Whenever the package is
heated up above the boiling point of water, a very
high vapor pressure builds up inside the voids. This
pressure can cause the package to crack or creates
severe delamination.
The amount of moisture absorbed by the package
is determined by the exposure time to humid air.
The exposure time allowed for a particular package
is defined by a moisture sensitivity level (MSL)
according to JEDEC standards J-STD-020 and
JESD22-A113.
Vishay transceivers are designed to withstand three
subsequent passes through a reflow soldering oven
using our recommended reflow temperature-time
profile when the package has been exposed not
longer than 72 hours to environmental conditions of
d 30 C/60 % RH. This correlates to MSL 4.
The parts will be delivered in a moisture barrier bag
containing desiccant and a humidity indicator card.
As long as the parts are stored in the sealed bag,
the performance will not degrade. As soon as the
bag is opened, the material should be consumed
within 72 hours or must be stored in a dry place
(chamber which is purged with a dry gas like air or
nitrogen) or baked according to the sticker on the
reel.
Reflow Soldering
Vishay Semiconductor transceivers are surface
mount devices and are designed to be assembled to
printed circuit boards (PCB) using reflow soldering.
State of the art for reflow soldering is the use of a
so-called convection reflow oven.
Recommendations for reflow conditions can only be
given in general terms since each PCB should be
considered individually depending on the size and
distribution of components. Because IrDA transceivwww.vishay.com
54
ers are more sensitive to thermal stress than most

other components, it is recommended that these be
used to determine the optimum soldering conditions. If the subsequent recommendations are followed excellent results can be achieved despite the
limitations of the materials used.
Reflow Solder Profile

There are two distinct tasks for the temperature-time
profile of the solder process:
Prepare the components for the stress at the soldering temperature.
Solder the components to the PCB.
The main idea behind this pre-soldering preparation
(neglecting the solder paste activation and the like)
is to have a very small temperature difference
between all components. This allows for a low peak
temperature and damage free soldering.
There are two different profile types used in industry
nowadays. The most often used type in the past and
still today is the ramp-soak-spike profile (RSS).
The convection oven allows for a ramp-to-spike
profile (RTS), and the application of this type is
increasing.
A solder profile consists roughly of three distinct
phases.
Pre-heating or Soak Phase: For standard components, this is the phase where all parts should
come roughly to the same temperature. This is
achieved either by keeping the PCB for a certain
time at a specific temperature (RSS) or ramp-up
the temperature at a certain speed (RTS) to have
all parts at all times of the profile at the same
temperature.
Soldering: During this phase, the actual soldering takes place. We recommend not to exceed
260 C peak temperature and the device should
not be exposed to higher temperatures than
255 C for more than 30 s (TFDUxxxx) or 20 s
(TFBSxxxx) depending on the type of transceiver
Cool Down: The PCB should be cooled down
rather quickly to have a fine grain solder joint.
As outlined previously a transceiver package has
built-in mechanical stress, which should be reduced
before submitting the part to the actual solder temperature. This stress is relieved during the soak
phase.

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06

Depending on the encapsulant material used for
packaging, the best soak temperature is in the
range of 140 C to 160 C and the time interval is
120 s to 180 s. As a rule of thumb, the temperature
should be slightly above the glass transition
temperature and the dwell time must be long
enough to allow for stress relief. This is most
conveniently realized with an RSS profile.
For RTS profiles, the low thermal conductivity
compared to standard components should be
considered. To get the transceiver into thermal
equilibrium with the PCB and allow for internal
stress relief the thermal ramp-up rate normally must
be lower than for standard components.
Vishay Semiconductor recommended

RSS Profile
Wave Soldering
For TFDUxxxx and TFBSxxxx transceiver devices
wave soldering is not recommended.
Manual Soldering
Manual soldering is the standard method for lab
use. However, for a production process it cannot be
recommended because the risk of damage is quite
highly depending on the experience of the operator.
Nevertheless, we added a chapter, describing manual soldering and desoldering. Before soldering or
desoldering be sure that the devices (or boards) are
correctly dried corresponding to given MSL-condition. See the equivalent standard JEDEC J-STD033A, "Handling, Packing, Shipping and Use of
Moisture/Reflow Sensitive Surface Mount Devices".
Storage
The storage and drying processes for all VISHAY
transceivers (TFDUxxxx and TFBSxxx) are equivalent to MSL4 if not otherwise specified in the data
sheet.
The data for the drying procedure is given on labels
on the packing and also in the application note
"Taping, Labeling, Storage and Packing"
(http://www.vishay.com/docs/82601/82601.pdf).

Manual Soldering
Although IrDC transceivers are surface mount
components and therefore designed for reflow
soldering, it is possible to solder these manually
using soldering irons. Be sure that the devices are
correctly dried corresponding to the MSL4 conditions. Based on long-standing experience of some
of Vishay Semiconductors customers the following
rules should be observed:
Use standard Pb-Sn or Sn solder

Use a high power (at least 25 W) temperature
controlled soldering iron
Soldering iron temperature 345 C 5 C
Soldering time 1 second maximum per lead
Avoid any mechanical stress to the leads during
soldering or cool down
18272
18270
Step 1:
Start with one pad only and get some solder on it.
18271
Step 2:
Place the transceiver at its appropriate position
www.vishay.com
56
Step 3:
Solder the lead to lead pad prepared in step 1
18273
Step 4:
Solder quickly and skillfully the remaining leads

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06

Desoldering
Hot air method
If it is necessary to remove a transceiver from a PCB

for replacement or investigation without damage the
same constraints apply as for soldering. Excessive
heat or mechanical strain (e.g. usage of pliers) could
result in cracks or damaged wire bonds. Bake the
whole board according to MSL4 before removing
the part to avoid moisture effects. Vishay recommends two procedures which have been found to
give the most consistent results:
Nozzle temperature 400 C 10 C

Lead temperature (nozzle 5 cm from the device)
270 C 10 C
Hold device with long tweezers
Apply air at an angle of 45 to the lead moving
the nozzle to heat all of the leads or apply the
heat from the back side when no components
are mounted on the back under the transceiver
When the solder melts (< 4 s) push gently or lift
device to lift off the leads
It is important that as little mechanical force as
possible is applied to the leads when the package
is hot and softened by the heat. Any excessive force
can tear off the leads causing internal damage to
the wire bonds.
Soldering iron method

Use a high thermal capacity soldering iron
(> 25 W) at 360 C 10 C
Use a solder iron with a very broad tip
Hold device with long nose tweezers
Heat leads
Do not apply force until the solder melts
Push the unit away without force
18274
Use a broad tip for desoldering with a solder iron
18276
When the solder is completely molten (< 2 s)

push the transceiver gently off the solder pads

Window Size in Housings


In Figure 1 and 2, the minimum window size in relation to the distance between the window and the
transceiver is described.
Generally speaking, a 10 % transmission loss should
be accounted for in the design calculations so that
output power and input sensitivity requirements are
met for the system design. The external filter should
be placed squarely against the transceiver otherwise
reflection may cause emitter power loss or a decrease
in receiver sensitivity in the system.
Optically transparent window materials are available
from different sources, e.g. Bayer, GE, Rohm & Haas
(see Source for Accessories).
The optical window must be a minimum size of
d1 x d2 rectangular or elliptical so as not to reduce
the IrDA performance.
The following expressions apply to figures 1 to 4.
d1 = w + 2x = w + 0.54a
d2 = h + 2x = h + 0.54a
where x = a tan 15q
Dimensions of d1, d2, and a are given in mm.

Some recommendations to enhance robustness of
your design:
Do not make the window larger than needed, otherwise you will unnecessarily increase the influence of ambient (sun) light.
The larger the distance a, the better the shielding
against the ambient light.
The outer window surface may be recessed
against the surrounding case material to protect
the window from scratches, abrasion, dust, etc.
Recessed window
avoiding scratches
Recessed transceiver
is recommended to
shield against ambient
(sun)light

Avoid vignettation but

limit the reception angle

Ambient Light and Electromagnetic Interference


IrDA specifies normative tests, with specific ambient conditions, under which IrDA applications
must be able to operate within the IrDA specifications.
These normative conditions are part of the physical layer specification IrPHY 1.4, Appendix A.
In the following these four essential requirements
are quoted from the original standard:
Background Light and Electromagnetic Field
There are four ambient interference conditions in
which the receiver is to operate correctly. The conditions are to be applied separately.
1. Electromagnetic field:
3 V/m maximum Refer to IEC 61000-4-3 test
level 2 for details. (For devices that intend to
connect with or operate in the vicinity of a
mobile phone or pager, a field of 30 V/m with
frequency ranges from 800 MHz to 960 MHz
and 1.4 GHz to 2.0 GHz including 80% amplitude modulation with a 1 kHz sine wave is recommended. Refer to IEC 61000-4-3 test level 4
for details.
The 30 V/m condition is a recommendation;
3 V/m is the normative condition.)
2. Sunlight:
10 kilolux maximum at the optical port This is
simulated with an IR source having a peak
wavelength within the range 850 nm to 900 nm
and a spectral width less than 50 nm biased to
provide 490 W/cm2 (with no modulation) at
the optical port. The light source faces the optical port. This simulates sunlight within the IrDA
spectral range. The effect of longer wavelength
radiation is covered by the incandescent condition.
3. Incandescent Lighting:
1000 lux maximum This is produced with general service, tungsten-filament, gas-filled,
inside-frosted lamps in the 60 Watt to 150 Watt
range to generate 1000 lux over the horizontal
surface on which the equipment under test
rests. The light sources are above the test
area. The source is expected to have a filament
temperature in the 2700 to 3050 degrees
Kelvin range and a spectral peak in the 850 nm
to 1050 nm range.
4. Fluorescent Lighting :
1000 lux maximum This is simulated with an IR
source having a peak wavelength within the
range 850 nm to 900 nm and a spectral width
www.vishay.com
66
of less than 50 nm biased and modulated to

provide an optical square wave signal
(0 W/cm2 minimum and 0.3 W/cm2 peak
amplitude with 10 % to 90 % rise and fall times
less than or equal to 100 ns) over the horizontal
surface on which the equipment under test
rests. The light sources are above the test
area. The frequency of the optical signal is
swept over the frequency range from 20 kHz to
200 kHz. Due to the variety of fluorescent
lamps and the range of IR emissions, this condition is not expected to cover all circumstances. It will provide a common floor for IrDA
operation.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)

Standards
The IrDA EMI specification is similar to the conditions
specified by the standard conditions used for European "CE" certification. The standards to be taken
into account are specified as IEC standards or equivalent EN standards
IEC/EN 61000-4-3: "Electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) - Part 4: Testing and measurement techniques - Section 3: Radiated, radio-frequency, electromagnetic field immunity test".
IrDA doesnt specify the immunity to conducted disturbances. However, this is also necessary for CE
certification for the final product. See for that:
IEC/EN 61000-4-6: "Electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) - Part 4: Testing and measurement techniques - Section 6: Immunity to conducted disturbances, induced by radio-frequency fields".
For mobile phone applications the conditions are
listed in
ETSI EN 301 489-1
Electromagnetic compatibility
and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM);
ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
standard for radio equipment and services;
Part 1: Common technical requirements
ETSI EN 301 489-7
ElectroMagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum
Matters (ERM);
ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standard for
radio equipment and services;
Part 7: Specific conditions for mobile and portable
radio and ancillary equipment of digital cellular radio
telecommunications systems (GSM and DCS)

Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06

Testing
The Vishay Semiconductors transceivers for IrDA
applications are tested according the standards in the
frequency range of 15 kHz (the standard starts at
150 kHz) to 80 MHz and for mobile phone frequencies in the extended range of 700 MHz to 2100 MHz
covering the 800 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, and
1900 MHz mobile phone applications. The test capabilities also include frequencies up to 3000 MHz to
cover the 2400 MHz band.
In the frequency range of 700 MHz to 3000 MHz a
GTEM 250 Cell with a field strength test capability of
up to 500 Vrms/m is used. This RF signal is AM modulated by 217 Hz, 80 % modulation depth, GSM
equivalent burst duration of 550 s.
Another tool available for testing is DPI (direct power
injection).
In the lower frequencies (15 kHz to 80 MHz) strip line
boxes are used with a maximum applied field of about
80 Vrms/m. The RF signal is AM modulated by 1 kHz,
80 % modulation depth.
In both ranges the transceivers are tested for the
specified Bit Error Ratio (BER).
The IrDA specified field strengths are sufficient for
normal applications. However, when transceivers are
operated close to an antenna, much higher field
strengths may occur.
An electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of 30 V/m is
not sufficient when the transceiver is built into a
mobile phone close to an antenna. Experience shows
that a minimum of 100 V/m is necessary in the case
when pick-up in the wired circuit is avoided.
Board Layout and EMI
In most of the GSM Applications - EMI is not caused
by the transceivers. At these frequencies very strong
(and resonant) coupling to the wiring from and to the
transceiver can occur. Therefore all connecting lines
should be sandwiched between grounded layers and
these lines should be handled like strip lines and terminated. Transceiver inputs/ outputs detect the RF
signal when the signal voltage is above the threshold.
In 3 V applications, using DPI test method, it was verified that applied GSM signals with RF voltages of
more than 1.5 V trigger the input. Therefore it has to
be pointed out, that a suitable circuit layout and correct termination of lines is the major issue when discussing the EMI behavior of transceivers. The design
goal for the transceiver itself (when used in mobile
phones) is to withstand field strength of 300 V/m when
terminated lines are used and no RF signals above
the threshold are applied.

Rev. 1.4, 20-Sep-06
The internal shielding mechanism in the transceivers

is efficient and additional metal EMI shields are not
necessary. Additional metal shielding has no or even
worse effect on the EMI behavior.
Interference with Optical Light (Radiation) Sources
Unmodulated sources of optical radiation are e.g.
sunlight and incandescent lamps. The spectra of both
are different, therefore the eye sensitivity related visible impression of a source (measured e.g. in lux or
lumen per Watt) is quite different, also in the case
when the optically generated detector current (A) in a
Si-detector might be the same. The Silicon detector
absorption characteristic defining the detector sensitivity is very different from the human eye. The invisible infrared part of the radiation of incandescant light
is much larger compared to sunlight and more efficiently detected. Therefore the incandescent lamp is
a more disturbing source for a Silicon receiver than
sunlight, same illuminance assumed.
Such unmodulated sources generate a background
current in the photo detector, which generates noise,
and offsets and displacements of the operating conditions. Vishay typically specifies and test designs for
higher values than given by the standard.
Vishay is testing with vertical incidence on the optical
axis, a condition much worse than the IrDA given condition with irradiating the optical test setup from the
ceiling.
Fluorescent Lighting
Fluorescent Lamps and especially Compact Fluorescent Lamps operated with electronic ballasts generate a quite strong infrared radiation modulated with a
wide electrical spectrum. The IrDA specified value of
3 mW/m2 reflects the worst-case irradiance in about a
meter distance of a fluorescent lamp. In this case also
Vishay is testing with vertical incidence on the optical
axis, a condition much worse than the IrDA given condition with irradiating the optical test setup from the
ceiling. The majority of the Vishay Semiconductors
transceivers are specified with a no-output level of
4 mW/m2, an additional safety margin vs. the IrDA
specified value.

Eye Safety of Diode Emitters

Eye Safety of Diode Emitters

Since 1993, the International Electrotechnical Committee (IEC) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC, officially
recognized as the European Standards Organization
in its field by the Commission in Directive 83/189/EEC)
have included Diode Emitters1) such as IREDs2) and
LEDs3) in the laser safety standard. LEDs and lasers
are technologically similar. However, the different
radiance of LEDs compared to lasers was not taken
into account. This resulted in LEDs being incorrectly
assessed concerning eye safety. In the 1997 edition of
the standard EN 60825-1 (and the IEC equivalent IEC
60825-1) the basic assessment errors were corrected.
The standard was further revised in January 2001.
Amendment 2 was added (IEC60825-1 Amd. 2
Ed. 1.0) and is available at www.iec.ch. Based on the
parallel voting process, this standard is also effective
as a CENELEC document, EN60825-1 Amendment 2.
Amendment 2 allows for a large increase in exposure
limits, especially for the extended sources such
as conventional LEDs and IREDs. The standard
describes the Maximum Possible Exposure (MPE)
and the Accessible Emission Levels (AEL) for the
human eye and skin. The safe emission level is
dependent on exposure time, wavelength, virtual
source size and other parameters. For extended
sources like LEDs, the apparent or virtual source size
is the most important parameter in assessing risk and
shall be specified in the component manufacturer's
data sheet. Given the revised exposure limits, under
normal operating conditions the MPE and AEL values
are difficult to exceed when using conventional LEDs.
Also, recognizing the low risk emissions of these
sources, Amendment 2 eliminated the single fault
condition for standard LEDs.
Worldwide, no eye damage by LEDs has ever been

reported. Diode Emitters efficiency is still increasing.
Especially at the shorter wavelengths, a risk due to
blue light effects, called blue light hazard, may occur
and shall be considered.
By definition, Laser Class 1 devices are safe under all
reasonably foreseeable conditions.
All of Vishay's IrDA transceivers and LEDs are rated
as Class 1 devices when operated within specifications. The datasheet of each transceiver notes this
Class 1 rating. The following example justifies the
Class 1 rating. Given an LED transmitter emitting at
880 nm with a source size of 2 mm, the Class 1 limit
for continuous operation is approximately 570 mW/sr.
For an IrDA application using an FIR transceiver with
a 25 % duty cycle, this limit would allow the LED to
emit pulse intensities up to 2280 mW/sr. When operated within specifications, this high intensity will never
occur. First, the IrDA Physical Layer limits emitter
intensities to 500 mW/sr. Second, IrDA transceivers
limit the pulse duration. Finally, if drive conditions are
set outside the specification, the thermal saturation of

An infrared remote control unit is used to control many
common consumer electronic products such as TVs,
DVD players, VCRs and CD players. When a button
is pressed on the remote control unit, a signal is sent
from the unit, and received for example by the TV.
The remote control unit contains an infrared emitting
diode (LED) that transmits the signal and the TV contains an infrared receiver that receives the signal. This
signal commands the TV to perform a function like
Power-On/Off, Sound-Up/Down, and Channel-Up/
Down. The signal contains the TVs address and the
command code. Each function will have a different
command code. The signal is encoded and transmitted using a modulated carrier wave in the frequency
range of 30 kHz to 56 kHz.
There are many different coding systems used for
remote control. The most common codes are the
RC5, RC6, and RMM codes from Philips and the
NEC code. Different products may use different coding systems. For example, your old TV remote control
unit may not work with your new TV because they use
different coding systems. For products using the
same coding system, each product will have a different address to avoid performing a command meant
for another product. Figure 1 in the Remote Control
Data Formats section provides an example of a
remote control signal using the Philips RC5 code
when the channel 3 is pressed. For more information about remote control codes, please refer to this
section and the document Data Format for IR
Remote Control.
Design engineers of handheld devices such as
mobile phones and PDAs are faced with the challenge of combining multiple functions in a single
device. Among the new features being integrated into
handheld devices is TV remote control. Most of these
devices feature a Vishay IrDA transceiver used for
short-distance wireless communication. The transceivers emitter can be used to transmit remote
control signals. This eliminates the need to designin an additional discrete LED emitter. At no additional
cost or board space, this is an excellent solution.
The remote control signal can be generated by software or by the combination of hardware (Baud Rate
Generator or Timer) and software. Remote control
applications generally include many of the available
coding systems. For handheld devices, it is best if the
application supports a teach function where the
handheld device learns the codes from the remote
control unit. The detector of the IrDA transceiver
receives the emitted signals to be stored in the handheld application.

By integrating the remote control application with

voice recognition, PDA and mobile phone manufacturers can offer their customers a very attractive capability: while in the process of answering a call, the user
can simply say Mute to mute the TV. Convert the
spoken word into an infrared remote control signal.
Hardware - Interface Schematics

The same hardware interface can be used for
Vishays IrDA transceivers whether used for IrDA
communication or remote control. No additional components are required for remote control. The following
is a general interface block diagram for IrDA and
remote control (RC) using Vishays new generation
transceivers (figure 2).
There are two output signals (IRTXD and SD/Mode)
from the controller and one input signal to it. To use
the same output line IRTXD of a controller for both
IrDA and RC, the IrDA TXD port should be a multifunction port, which supports also GPIO (General
Purpose Output) and UART (asynchronous serial
data Transmit, in case using its Baud Rate Generator), and its functions can be alternated by software.
To use the same input line IRRXD of a controller for
both IrDA and RC Teaching/Learning function, the
IrDA RXD port should be a multifunction port, which
supports also GPIO (General Purpose Input), and its
functions can be alternated by software.
If the IrDA port does not support UART or GPIO one
has to find another port and an extra multiplexer to do
the RC.

Rev. 1.6, 20-Sep-06

The circuit diagram in figure 2 shows additionally to
the connections for the logic the little external circuit
to be added for filtering the supply voltage (low-pass
R1, C) and a resistor R2 for limiting the LED drive current. The resistor R2 is only necessary when the
transceiver has no internal current control or the current should be reduced to a level lower than the internally controlled current.
Also when operated with a supply voltage Vcc > 4 V
the resistor R2 may be necessary when the application is operated close to the maximum temperature
limits. "Transceiver" stands here for e.g. TFDU4300
(SIR, 115.2 kbit/s) or TFBS6614 (FIR, 4 Mbit/s). For
these the pin numbers are valid.

Transmit Distance
Factors Influencing Transmit Distance
This section provides a detailed description of factors
influencing transmit distance:
Wavelength of emitter and detector
Optical intensity of the emitter
Receiver Sensitivity
Frequency of the emitter and detector.
Operating Range
The primary factors in the theoretical distance calculation are radiant intensity of the emitter (Ie in mW/sr)
and sensitivity of the receiver (given as minimum or
threshold irradiance Eemin in mW/m). Calculating
transmission distance in the simplest case assumes a
square-law relationship between distance d and irradiance Eemin on the receiver. Shown below is the calculation using a receiver sensitivity of
Eemin = 0.4 m W/m2 and an intensity of Ie = 40 mW/sr.
The distance d is resulting as

Transmission distance increases as the intensity

increases and as the receiver becomes more sensitive.
Wavelength
Standard infrared remote control uses a wavelength
of 900 nm to 950 nm and a subcarrier frequency of
33 kHz to 40 kHz (IEC61603-1). Some manufacturers
use a subcarrier frequency range from 30 kHz to
56 kHz. After the use of these wavelengths became
standard, the still more efficient and much faster
850 nm to 900 nm emitters became available. These
emitters are used in IrDA applications. Vishay further
limits the peak wavelength used in its IrDA transceivers to 880 nm to 900 nm with a typical value of
886 nm.
The main difference between an LED used exclusively for remote control and an IrDA LED is the emitted wavelength. The wavelength of Vishays IrDA
LED is t 880 nm while the wavelength of a typical
remote control LED is 940 nm.
For longer transmit distances, the spectral distribution
of an emitting LED should match the remote control
receiver spectral sensitivity. Vishays IrDA transceivers are effective for remote control because the
remote control receiver is sensitive to the wavelength
emitted by the transceiver. Figure 4 shows that
Vishays IrDA (886 nm) LED emits a wavelength long
enough to be received by the remote control receivwww.vishay.com
71

meaning there is an 11 % range loss when using an
886-nm emitter instead of a 950-nm emitter.
Normalized Spectral Emission or Sensitivity
ers. Though the peak wavelength of the emitter and

receiver are not matched, enough radiation is
received to function well. Figure 5 shows spectral
sensitivity curve of the leading remote control receivers.
Because the peak wavelengths of the IrDA emitter
and receiver are not matched, transmit distance is a
function of a reduction factor, Rf, derived from the relative responsivity of the receiver Rf = Eemin/Ee
(with Eemin = threshold irradiance at the maximum at
950 nm and Ee = threshold irradiance at the given
wavelength). This reduction factor, Rf, is obtained
from the curves by reading the normalized sensitivity
value (Y-axis) where the receiver sensitivity curve
intersects the IrDA emitters peak wavelength of 886
nm.The wavelength of 886 nm is the specified typical
peak wavelength of Vishays IrDA-transceivers. In the
following equations the parameter IrDA represents
the wavelength range from 880 nm to 900 nm, CIR
refers to the consumer IR wavelength of 930 nm to
950 nm.

Optical Intensity
As already described, remote control transmit distance is a function of emitter intensity. Transmit distance increases as the intensity of the emitter diode
increases. Vishay lab results indicate that to transmit
over a distance of 10 meters, the minimum intensity of
the 880-nm emitter should be 70 mW/sr. Most lowpower IrDA transceivers have a LED intensity of less
than 9 mW/sr, woefully inadequate to be used for
remote control function.
The intensity of the emitter depends on its peak current and efficiency. The peak current can be controlled by using a serial, current-limiting resistor. By
reducing the value of the resistor, the LED peak current will increase which increases the intensity. Each
IrDA transceiver, however, has a limit or maximum
intensity. For example, the TFDU6102, the worlds
leading FIR transceiver, has a peak current of typically 550 mA and typical intensity of 170 mW/sr (max.
350 mW/sr). Similarly, the TFDU4300 peak current
and resulting intensity are typically 300 mA and
65 mW/sr.
While the TFDU6102 does not require a current limiting resistor, figure 6 shows the dependence of intensity on the value of the serial resistor for randomly
selected transceivers. The serial resistor may be
used to reduce the internal power dissipation or to
reduce the current consumption with resulting lower
intensity. Note that these curves are for a few transceivers only. Single devices may deviate from average or normal behavior due to device parameter
tolerances.

Carrier Frequency
The sensitivity of an infrared remote control receiver
is dependent on the carrier frequency as shown in
Figure 7. The 3-dB bandwidth f is about 1/10 of its
central frequency f0.
A carrier based modulation scheme is used for
remote control to efficiently filter the signal from disturbed ambient. Therefore remote control receivers
can be much more sensitive (x 100 to x 200) than
baseband transmission systems as e.g. IrDA equivalent receivers.
The carrier frequency of the handheld devices controller should be the same as the central frequency of
the target device. A difference will result in a loss in
sensitivity and subsequent transmit distance. For
example, the transmit distance of a system which
uses a 36-kHz controller with a Vishay TSOP1238
receiver (center frequency of 38 kHz) will be reduced
by approximately 10 %. The selectivity is not that high
to allow multi-channel operation. With strong signals
as e.g. in a distance of 1 m a TSOP1238 will receive
also 30 kHz and 56 kHz carriers.
Battery Charge
A weakly charged battery causes a drop in the
strength of the emitted signal, particularly the beginning of the signal. In the following two diagrams (see
figure 8 and 9) the effect of charging state of the battery is shown. This drop at the beginning of the signal
may reduce the efficiency of the gain control of the
receiver, requiring longer response times or repeating
of the signal. Note that this is not RC-5 code. This
code provides a long header to allow the receiver to
adjust gain but with a weak battery the header is
dropped.

Since carrier frequency has no influence on the optical matching of transmitter to receiver, the collected
data can be transferred to any other carrier frequency
system. This remote control transmitter generated a
digital signal. The signal is fed to an IRED driver transistor. When testing IrDA transceivers with internal
current controllers, the signal from the remote control
was directly fed to the TXD input of the transceiver.
For transceivers without internal current controllers, a
serial resistor was used to generate constant current
signal during the pulse. The transmitter supply voltage was set to 3 V.

Expected Performance
Remote Control and IrDA applications are both
using Infrared as transmission medium. The remote
control applications are using historically the wavelength band from 930 nm to 960 nm while IrDA covers
the band from 850 nm to 900 nm. In the early days
the 950-nm band was also under consideration for the
IrDA organization. However, expecting future higher
speed, IrDA decided to go with the shorter wavelength range. Standard IrDA receivers are able to
receive RC signals, while RC receivers may not necessarily be able to receive IrDA signals. The typical
RC receivers have cut-off filters which are in the center of the IrDA band. In general one can state, that the
sensitivity of remote control receivers is questionable
in the lower part of the IrDA band while above 880 nm
the sensitivity of remote control receivers is quite

good and can be used. This opens up the option to
use IrDA transmitters also with remote control without
spending an additional long wavelength chip.
The experience confirms, that for the wavelength
range from 880 nm to 900 nm for the majority of stateof-the-art remote control receivers a sensitivity
threshold of 0.7 mW/m2 can be assumed.
In the following table 1 the range is listed which can
be expected under IrDA intensity conditions with the
boundary condition that the wavelength is above
880 nm.
In table 2 the expected range with some VISHAY
transceivers is listed.

Remote Control Data Formats
There are many different coding systems used for
remote control. The most common codes are the
RC5 and RC6 codes from Philips and the NEC
code. For more information see the application note
Data Formats for IR Remote Control. Figure 13 is an
example of a remote control signal using the Philips
RC5 code when channel 3 is pressed. It was
recorded using an oscilloscope connected to IR PIN
detector.

Figure 14. Philips RC5 IR remote control protocol
The RC5 - code has an instruction set of 2048 different instructions and is divided into 32 addresses
(5 bits) of each 64 instructions or commands (6 bits).
Each remote controlled device has its own address,
making it possible to change the volume of the TV
without changing the volume of the CD player. The
transmitted code is a data word that consists of 14 bits
and is defined as:

Rev. 1.6, 20-Sep-06
2 start bits (ss) for the automatic gain control in the

infrared receiver.
ss = 10 (Add 64 to command)1)
ss = 11 (Use command as it is)
1 toggle bit (change every time when a new button
is pressed on the IR transmitter)
5 address bits for the system address
6 instruction bits for the command or key pressed
The RC5 code uses the Bi-Phase modulation technique, meaning that a single bit is split up into two half
bits:
0 -> 10
1 -> 01
The duration time of each bit is equal to 1.778 ms containing 32 pulses with a repetition rate of 36 kHz, the
carrier frequency of this code. The total time of a full
RC5 code is 24.889 ms. The space between two
transmitted codes is 50 bit times or 88.889 ms. The
carrier frequency is used to enable a narrow band
reception to improve the noise rejection. The carrier
frequency of the RC5 code is 36 kHz. The complete
signal is repeated every 114 ms as long as the command button is still pressed. The toggle bit is changing its polarity each time the button is pressed.
For example, pressing and holding the volume key
will hold the toggle bit constant and the volume will
continuously increase bar by bar, the signal will not
change but will be repeated. By discretely pressing
the volume button, the toggle bit will change its value
each time. The final result is the same. In this case,
the toggle bit has no influence. However, when
selecting channel 1 and pressing and holding the
1- key, the receiver will detect the unchanged toggle
bit and will recognize only the 1 ignoring identical
signals regardless of how long the button is pressed.
Even if the transmission path is interrupted, it will not
detect 11 or 111. To change to channel 11, the
number 1 must be pressed twice. With each press,
the polarity of the toggle bit changes and the receiver
recognizes the command.
Additional Components Required for Remote Control

No additional components are required when using
Vishay transceivers. Vishays transceivers have an
emitter driver built-in and use the same digital input
pin, TXD, for IrDA and RC. No MOSFET is required.
1)The command set can be increased by 64 commands by using a
modified start bit 10 instead of 11 using the second start bit as a
7th command bit.

Application Examples
Motorola MC68SZ328 Processor (DragonBall)
The Motorola MC68SZ328 Processor (DragonBall) is
a high-performance low-power 32-bit microcontroller
with an integrated IrDA block for direct support of the
IrDA physical layer protocol (SIR, 9.6 kbit/s to
115.2 kbit/s).
The application circuit is shown in figure 15.
This processor uses the pin TXD / PE5 for IrDA or RC
data output and RXD / PE4 as IrDA or RC data input.
The pin RTS* / PE6 serves originally as RTS or GPIO.
Here this pin is used as a general-purpose output. It
is connected to SD for controlling the transceiver
operating mode by asserting this pin low or high to
enable or shutdown it. It is controlled by RTS bit of
UMISC register.
TXD/PE5, RXD/PE4 and RTS/PE6 pins are dedicated to the UART/Infrared Communication Port. For

PESEL register to 1. Control of these pins is given to
the Port E for use as general-purpose input/output
pins.
Intel SA-1110 Processor, StrongArm

The Intel SA-1110 Processor or StrongArm is a high
performance, low-power microcontroller with an IrDA
interface which supports SIR (9.6 kbit/s to 115.2 kbit/s)
and FIR (4 Mbit/s). It does not support MIR (1 Mbit/s).
The Vishay low profile (2.7 mm) transceiver
TFBS6614 is an option to operate with this processor
in the FIR range while the low profile (2.5 mm) transceiver TFDU4300 supports SIR in this application.
Both can be used for IrDA and remote control operations.
Other transceivers depending on the demand of the
application (device profile, and range) may be applicable, too. The pin numbering of the transceiver may
be different from that shown in figure 15.
The SA1110 pin functions (see figure 16) are RXD2
as IrDA data input, and TXD2 as IrDA data output.
GPx is an available general-purpose pin used for SD
and Bandwidth selection. TXD2 and RXD2 pins are
dedicated to the infrared communication port.
If serial transmission is not required and this port is
disabled, control of these pins is given to the peripheral pin control (PPC) unit for use as general-purpose
input/output pins, uninterruptible. Refer to section
11.13 entitled "Peripheral Pin Controller" on page 11167 of the Intel StrongArm SA-1110 Microprocessor
Developers Manual. To use these pins for remote
control, the user must also program the PPC pin
direction register. The direction of TXD2 should be
output and RXD2 should be input.

The pin numbers are related to the VISHAY transceiver TFDU4300. Depending on the demand also
TFBS4650, TFBS4652, or other SIR transceivers can
be used, the pin numbering may be different in that
case.

Intel PXA255 Processor or XScale
The Intel PXA255 Processor or XScale is a high-performance low-power microcontroller and has an IrDA
interface which supports both SIR (9.6 kbit/s to 115.2
kbit/s) and FIR (4 Mbit/s), see figure 17.

applications
The Vishay low profile (2.7 mm) transceiver

TFBS6614 is an option to operate with this processor
in the FIR range while the low profile transceiver (2.5
mm) TFDU4300 supports SIR in this application. Both
can be used for IrDA and remote control operations.
The circuit diagram is shown in figure 17.
The transmitter input TXD (pin-3) of the transceiver is
connected to the processor's pin IRTXD/GPIO[47],
the receiver output RXD (pin-4) is connected to
IRRXD/GPIO[46] and the shutdown SD (pin-5) to one
of any available GPIO pins.
The I/Os IRRXD/GPIO[47] and IRTXD2/GPIO[46] are
multifunctional pins. To change their function
between IrDA and RC the bit-pair AF47 and AF46 of
the GPIO Alternate Function Select Registers
(GAFR1) is to be programmed. For example, setting
the bit-pair of GAFR1_L AF47 alters its function
between SIR, FIR, STD_UART and GPIO for remote
control as shown in the following table.

Refer to section 4.1.3 GPIO Register Definitions, on
page 4-6 of "Intel PXA255 Processor Developer's
Manual", March 2003
1.
Set the direction of port GPIO[47] to Output, by
setting 1 to bit-15 (PD47) of register GPDR1
(GPIO Pin Direction). Set the direction of port
GPIO[46] to input, by setting 0 to bit-14 (PD46)
of register GPDR1 (GPIO Pin Direction).
2.
Set the IRTXD/GPIO[47] port to GPIO, by writing 00 to bit-pair <31,30> (AF47) of register
GAFR1_L. Set the IRRXD/GPIO[46] port to
GPIO, by writing 00 to bit-pair <29,28> (AF46)
of register GAFR1_L.
3.
Send the same signals through the output port,
by writing one to either bit-15 (PS47) of register
GPSR1 (to set) or bit-15 (PC47) of GPCR1
(to clear).
4.
Read and record the inputs from port
IRRXD/GPIO[46] for RC simulation. The pin
state can be read by reading the bit-14 (pl46) of
register GPLR1.

Interfacing SIR transceivers to an RS232
port
A quite common method of adding the IrDA capability
to a desktop computer is the usage of a so-called dongle connected to the COM - port (RS232 - port). This
connectivity is currently available at any desktop or
laptop computer but in future will be replaced by the
USB port.
For interfacing the SIR frontend transceivers (4000
series) as for other SIR transceivers an Encoder/
Decoder device (TOIM4232) is necessary to provide
the NRZ to RZI conversion. This device also provides
the clock generator and can be programmed by a set
of (8 bit-) commands. Drivers for the RS232 connector with TOIM4232 are provided by Microsoft (R) with
the Operating Systems. The block diagram of a dongle connection to RS232 is shown in figure 1.

Interfacing MIR and FIR Transceivers.

Advanced UART Interfaces provides
this Port.
Our MIR transceivers support speeds from 9.6 kbit/s
to 1.152 Mbit/s while the FIR transceivers are supporting speeds from 9.6 kbit/s to 4 Mbit/s. Only
TFDU5307 out of the 5000 series is compatible to the
NSC and SMSC controller circuits described in the
following. All available devices of the 6000 series are
compatible to the described interface circuits.
NSCPC87108
The configuration shown in figure 2 is recommended
to interface MIR and FIR transceivers to the National
Semiconductor PC87108VHG "Advanced UART and
Infrared Controller".
C1 and C2 should be placed as close as possible
to the Infrared Transceiver.
The area which is grounded should be large
enough to cover as much space as possible between
the circuit paths leading to the Infrared Transceiver.
This will enhance EMI shielding to the internal optoelectronics.
NSCPC87338VLJ
The configuration shown in figure 3 is recommended
to interface MIR and FIR transceivers to the National
Semiconductor's PC87338VLJ.
C1 and C2 should be placed as close as possible
to the Infrared Transceiver.
The area which is grounded should be large
enough to cover as much space as possible between

and will be the most common connector in future.
Therefore it is important to also support the IrDA
wireless connectivity at the USB port. In the drawing
in figure 5 the circuit block diagram using a SigmaTel
solution is shown.
This design operates up to the VFIR speed of 16 Mbit/s
using the VISHAY transceiver TFDU8108. The USB

Interface Circuits
Remarks to the circuit shown in figure 6, STIR4230 16-Pin 4 x 4 mm QFN Reference design.
1) VDD is the core supply for the 4230. Connect to the host systems 1.8 V supply.
2) VDDIO is the I/O supply for the 4230 and must be connected to the I/O supply used by the host processor
and IR transceiver to ensure proper logic levels.
VDDIO can be either 3.3 V or 1.8 V.
3) The integrity of the SPI_MOSI, SPI_MISO, and SPI_SCK signals are critical to the proper operation of the
4230. Use proper high speed layout techniques for these signals. Use signal paths that are as short and clean
as possible. Introducing a delay of even a few nanoseconds can be enough to prevent full speed operation of
the SPI bus and must be avoided.
4) While transmitting, the IR transceiver will consume large amounts of power and cause large current spikes
on the supply and ground planes. Peak currents of over 500 mA are common for devices that transmit 1 m.
Attention must be paid to power and ground layout as well as supply bypassing to prevent issues related to
excessive ground bounce or power supply ripple. In some circumstances R2, C5 and C6 can be used to help
isolate the transmit diode from the rest of the system. The optimum values for R2 and C5 depend on several
factors and will be unique to each design.
5) The supply used for the transmit diode (V_IR) must be above 2.7 V. The transmit diode does not require a
regulated supply, and for systems with battery voltages that are between 2.7 V and 5.5 V, can be powered from
the battery. If the supply voltage is above 4 V, a series resistor may be needed to limit the amount of power
dissipated inside the IR transceiver.
6) Place bypassing caps as close as possible to the ICs power and ground pins. For U1, place C3 close to
pins 15 and 16 and C4 close to pins 7 and 8. For U2, place C7 as close as possible to pins 6 and 7.
7) Place Y1 close to the STIR430.
8) The DAP (die attachpad) is not needed either electrically or thermally and attaching it to the PC board is not
required. However, attaching the DAP provides additional mechanical support and may improve self allignment.

Reference Layouts and Circuit Diagrams


For testing and comparing test results a common
base is necessary. The layout of a test board can
have a quite big influence on parameters, especially
on rise and fall time and also on jitter.
testing all transceivers with the common Vishay pin

order and with a 1 mm lead pitch.1 The test boards
and the Gerber plots of the test boards are available
on request.
In most cases the used power supplies are far away

from the device under test and the wiring is done with
long inductive cables. In such a case the power supply is not able to supply high peak currents. The only
way to overcome this condition is to implement many
capacitors close to the device under test.
For comparison test data, especially as mentioned

before for rise and fall times, the circuit ambient must
be well defined. The circuit and the layout may have
a quite big influence on the resulting data. Therefore
a comparison should only be done under equal or
very similar conditions. The boards for testing can be
used for different types. Therefore redundant pads for
circuit components may be in some cases not used or
may have different purposes for different transceivers. For connecting to the test equipment, controllers,
and power supplies twisted pair cables are used,
which provide low capacitive load and defined
impedance. The different usage of pin 7 of the transceiver in figure 2 leads to a layout where only for the
case of Vlog at pin 7 the components C5, C6, and R4
may be used. In other cases a jumper replaces R4,
and C5 and C6 are omitted.
It is very important to note, that the circuit for testing

is different from the application circuit, where e.g. in a
telephone application the battery is very close to
the transceiver and the wiring is also low impedance.
In general we recommend using in application circuits
the combination R1/C4 (shown in figure 1 and
figure 2) and not more than that.
In this chapter a common reference layout and the circuit diagram is described which is used for

Circuit description
The test board is using only one power supply voltage
VCC (at pin 1 of connector JP1, figure 2) for the transmitter and receiver. Another supply voltage is available for different logic voltages Vlog at JP1, pin 3
connected to pin 7 of the transceiver. The analog supply voltage VCC1 at pin 6 of the transceiver is connected to VCC via a low pass filter given by R1 and C3/C4.
Also C1/C2 contribute to smoothing and stabilizing
the voltage at pin 6, VCC1. The IRED anode is connected to the power supply via R2/R3 (two parallel
resistors for increased power dissipation). These re1
sistors define the IRED current for the case a switch

is built into the transceiver. In case of a built-in current
controller, these two resistors can be replaced by a
jumper. For supply voltages above 4 V it might by advisable to use these for lowering the power dissipation
inside the transceiver, especially in case the maximum operating temperature will be used. In that case
care should be taken, that the voltage at the IRED pin
doesnt drop below the minimum specified supply
voltage.
Note: This is an example for the 8 pin devices with 1-mm pitch. For other devices with different pitch and less pins equivalent boards are
also available.

The recommended board layouts are Vishay references for testing the transceivers. Identical boards
are used for all speeds from SIR to VFIR. The layout
has an influence on the rise/fall times of the signals,
especially of the optical output pulse due to the quite
high drive current through the LED. The circuit is also
identical for all transceivers apart from the different
use of pin 5 (SD or not connected as e.g. in case of
TFDU4100, which has no SD function), pin 7 (Mode,
Vlogic, or NC), and the device dependent current limiting resistors R2 for controlling the current through
the IR emitter.
As already described, the given layout is nearly
identical for all Vishay transceivers because the pin
order is identical for all devices. For different lead
pitch different boards are available.
www.vishay.com

Transceiver I/Os (8-pin as example) Optical Domain, Input and Output

The IrDA physical layer standard specifies only the
optical interlink, not the electrical input or output signals. The optical domain is strictly specified and
tested with the IrDA-given conditions. However, the
constriction to the IrDA standard limits the application
of the transceivers outside the IrDA protocol.
Due to the pulse duration limits of minimum and maximum optical pulse width IrDA receivers are designed
to suppress low frequency and DC radiation as sunlight, incandescent or fluorescent lamps. Therefore
these receivers cannot be used as DC-radiation sensors. The emitter pulse duration is limited to overcome the overload risk during start-up conditions of
computers and for eye safety issues, too.
Rev. 2.0, 20-Sep-06

Pin #1 - IR Emitter Anode
There are in general different LED (or IRED) drive
options in the different devices. Most of the new
designs have a built-in current control for the LED
drive current to set the intensity correctly for the
application adapted to the IrDA standards (e.g.
TFDU6102, TFBS6614, TFDU4300, TFBS4650). In
that case the IREDA-pin is directly connected to the
supply voltage. Only in special cases a series
resistor is applicable: Adding an external resistor in
series to the LED can have two reasons. The first is
to reduce the dissipated power inside the receiver
when supply voltages above 4 V are used (and
specified) and the full temperature range should be
covered keeping the internal current control active.
The second is to reduce the internally set current e.g.
for low power application or just saving power when
the full range is not needed. In that case the controller
function is changed just to a switch.
Other transceivers are using only an internal switch.

In that case the external resistor R2 from pin #1 to the
power supply is responsible for the current limitation.
With the internally defined current through the LED
the intensity is to a great extent independent of the
applied voltage while in case of using the switch the
intensity is strongly voltage dependent and the resistor R2 is to be selected depending on the applied voltage. Also when the internal regulation is overruled by
an external resistor this will behave like a switched but
not controlled IRED. In figure 9 the typical resulting
currents dependent on the applied voltages are
shown when the current limitation is done by a series
resistor Rs. In figure 10 the influence of the series
resistance on the resulting current is shown.

The on-resistances RDSon of the driver transistors do

not vary very much. Therefore this example is quite
representative for all transceiver types with built-in
switches. One should keep in mind that the parameters may slightly change over the temperature range.
In figure 11 and figure 12 the behavior of transmitters
with built-in current control is shown. There only a little
voltage dependency can be observed for the drive

current and the intensity, respectively. To increase the
intensity a serial LED can be used when the quite high
operating voltage is available. The abs. max ratings
must be taken into account.

In most cases the IR Emitter Cathode pin is not to be

added to operate the Emitter like via an or-gate.

Pin #3 TXD Transmitter Input

Inputs in general
All inputs (as all other pins) are ESD protected. For
the protection level see the data sheets or the Qualpacks for the special transceivers. Nevertheless, care
should be taken that the voltage at the inputs does not
exceed the specified values. Voltages above the
threshold will trigger the input. This is valid also for applied RF signals. Some EMI is just generated by too
high applied RF voltages to the inputs (e.g. of more
than 1.5 V with 3 V logic levels). When the transceivers are operated close to RF-antenna it should be
avoided to couple RF to the input or output lines.
As a counter measure terminating inputs (and also

output lines) is recommended.
Most devices have a built-in dynamic load circuit at
the inputs (TXD, SD, Mode, SC), which keeps the input in the Low state. Changing the state will cause a
current of some A. The typical behavior and current
flow is shown in figure 15. In figure 15 a simulation is
shown with rising TXI input voltage over time. IVIC is
the resulting input current and IDDadd is the additional operating current. Other inputs (e.g. SD) show the
same behavior.

To demonstrate the current vs. input voltage characteristics a triangular voltage function V(TXI) is applied
to the TXD input pin. With increasing voltage the input
current IVIC is increasing until the voltage crosses the
switching point of the input. Above that the input load
is switched off. However, there is still an additional

operating current in the vicinity of the logic threshold
level. That current vanishes, when the input voltage
comes closer to the operating voltage (3 V in this
case).
Pin #3 TXD Input

Setting the transceiver input active will cause to
output an electrical drive current through the LED and
emitting a specified optical intensity. The pulse duration of IrDA-standard related transmission is limited to
a maximum of about 20 s2. To protect the emitter
against wrong timing and also to comply with eye
safety regulations the pulse duration in VISHAY emitters is limited to a value between 20 s to 100 s.
This indicates that an NRZ-code (NRZ: no return to
zero) cannot be transmitted with these devices spe-
cialized for the IrDA standard. For communicating with

RS232 via IrDA transceivers a code converter (ENDEC as the device TOIM4232) from NRZ to RZI (return to zero inverted) is necessary. Remote Control
codes are supported. The IrDA standardized wavelength is shorter than the remote control wavelength.
However, the RC receivers are able to receive IrDA
signals, at least when the emitted wavelength is in the
IrDA band above 870 nm as used by VISHAY.
Pin #4 RXD Receiver Output

Outputs Vishay transceivers use tri-state outputs.
When the device is set to the shut down mode, the
output is floating with a very little load (in the order of
500 k: to 1 M:) to the digital supply voltage Vlogic, if
available, or Vcc. The only device, which is using an
open collector output, is TFDU4100 with an internal
pull-up of 20 k: to Vcc.
protected. With that feature programming errors will

not kill outputs.
All Vishay FIR transmitter outputs are short circuit
As already noted for the TXD-input also the receive

channel detects only pulses, but no DC-radiation. In
general carrier based remote control signals (as
RC5, RC6 or NEC - codes) can be received and
used especially for a teach mode for learning RC
codes.
Pin #5 SD Shutdown
Shutdown With a few exemptions as TFDU4100 and
TFDU4202 all Vishay Semiconductors IrDA-compliant transceivers feature a shutdown input. When set
active the devices go into a shutdown mode with the
RXD output floating with a weak pull-up. To shut
down TFDU4100 and TFDU4202 see the special data
sheets.
and VFIR devices it is recommended to reset the

transceivers by setting the SD active to force the device directly into a programmed mode before starting
a communication. Often the start-up conditions in circuits are not defined very well. Therefore it is advisable to force the transceiver into a desired condition
than to rely on a default state.
In case of programmable transceivers as the MIR, FIR

Pin #6 VCC Analog Supply Voltage
In nearly all Vishay Semiconductors transceivers the
supply voltages for the LED and the transceiver can
be applied separately. This has the advantage that
only the transceiver with a small operating current has
to be connected to the regulated power supply whereas the much higher LED drive current is supplied by
the unregulated source, resulting in less cost for the
Pin #7 Mode
The mode pin is used in FIR devices as e.g.
TFDU6102 to change the mode from SIR to FIR statically. This pin can also be used to monitor the opera2
power supply. The supply voltage should be filtered

with a low pass as shown in the circuit diagram. A
combination of a Tantalum capacitor and a ceramic
capacitor is recommended. Especially when EMI immunity is an issue, care should be taken for the RFquality of the ceramic capacitor.
tion mode (SIR or FIR) of the device, which is set

dynamically by using SD and TXD lines. If not used,
leave this pin open. Maximum capacitive load: 50 pF.
Note: Any IrDA receiver must be able to handle 1.6 s input signals

Rev. 2.0, 20-Sep-06

Pin #7 Vlogic Digital Supply Voltage
Some of the Vishay Semiconductors transceivers
have the opportunity to apply an external reference for
the logic input and output levels. If a Vlogic voltage is
specified, this can be either connected to Vcc or can
be separately supplied by a reference voltage to
adapt input thresholds and output levels to the logic
levels for optimum noise suppression especially when

using low I/O voltages.
The input threshold is about half of the applied Vlogic
and the output swing is defined by Vlogic. If not different from Vcc this pin can be directly connected to Vcc.
Pin #8 GND Ground

This is the reference for all applied voltages.
Especially when working with FIR and VFIR
frequencies the standard rules for ground wiring in RF
circuits should be observed. For testing basic
parameters the described reference layout should be
used. Switching times, delays, noise immunity and
even sensitivity can suffer from bad grounding.

Longer signal lines in particular should not be used
without termination. See e.g. The Art of Electronics
Paul Horowitz, Winfield Hill, 1989, Cambridge
University Press, ISBN 0521370957.
Encoder and Decoder Circuits

The VISHAY transceivers are designed to operate
according to the IrDA standard, this means with dedicated pulse duration for transmitter and receiver.
Many controllers (PC, mobile phone and microprocessor families) support the IrDA standard. SIR with
RS232 is supported by the VISHAY ENDEC

TOIM4232. For a circuit diagram see this data sheet.
See also the supplier list in the application note
Sources for Accessories.
Optical Windows
Optical windows should be designed not to truncate
the beam shape of transceivers. On the other hand
the window design also can be used to minimize interference with background light and other disturbances. For type related window design and general
information regarding windows materials and suppliers see the application note Window Size in Housings. Supplier references are in the note Sources for
Accessories.

Division
The goals are straightforward: Customer satisfaction

through continuous improvement towards zero
defects in every area of our operation. We are committed to meet our customers' requirements in terms
of quality and service. In order to achieve this, we
build excellence into our product from concept to
delivery and beyond.
Design-in Quality
Quality must be designed into products. Vishay uses
optimized design rules based on statistical information. This is refined using electrical, thermal and
mechanical simulation together with techniques such
as FMEA, QFD and DOE.
Built-in Quality
Quality is built into all Vishay products by using qualified materials, suppliers and processes. Fundamental
to this is the use of SPC techniques by both Vishay
and its suppliers. The use of these techniques, as well
as tracking critical processes, reduces variability,
optimizing the process with respect to the specification. The target is defect prevention and continuous
improvement.
Qualification
All new products are qualified before release by submitting them to a series of mechanical, electrical and
environmental tests. The same procedure is used for
new or changed processes or packages.
Monitoring
A selection of the same or similar tests used for qualification is also used to monitor the short- and longterm reliability of the product.
SPC (Statistical Process Control)
SPC is an essential part of all Vishay process control.
It has been established for many years and is used as
a tool for the continuous improvement of processes
by measuring, controlling and reducing variability.
Vishay Quality System
All Vishay's facilities worldwide are approved to
ISO 9000. In addition, depending on their activities,
some Vishay companies are approved to recognized
international and industry standards such as VDA 6.1
and QS 9000. Each subsidiary goal is to fulfill the particular requirements of customers. The Opto Divisions
of Vishay Semiconductor GmbH are certified according to ISO 9001:2000, QS 9000 and
ISO/TS 16949.
Co n t i n u o u s Im p r o v ement
(PDCA - Cy c le)
le)
19594
The procedures used are based upon these standards and laid down in an approved and controlled
Quality Manual.
Total Quality Management

Total Quality Management is a management system
combining the resources of all employees, customers
and suppliers in order to achieve total customer satisfaction. The fundamental elements of this system are:
Management commitment
European Foundation for Quality Management
(EFQM assessment methodology)
Empowered Improvement Teams (EITs)
Supplier development and partnership
Quality tools
Training
Quality System
All Vishay employees from the senior management
downwards are trained in understanding and using of
TQM. Every employee plays its own part in the continuous improvement process which is fundamental to
TQM and our corporate commitment to exceed customers' expectations in all areas including design,
technology, manufacturing, human resources, marketing, and finance. Everyone is involved in fulfilling
this goal. The management believes that this can only
be achieved by employee empowerment.
The Vishay corporate core values
Leadership by example
Employee empowerment
Continuous improvement
Total customer satisfaction
Business excellence
are the very essence of the Vishay Quality Movement
process.
www.vishay.com
99

Training
Vishay maintains that it can only realize its aims if the
employees are well trained. It therefore invests
heavily in courses to provide all employees with the
knowledge they need to facilitate continuous improvement. A training profile has been established for all
employees with emphasis being placed on Total
Quality Leadership. Our long-term aim is to continuously improve our training so as to keep ahead of projected changes in business and technology.
EFQM Assessment Methodology
From 1995, Vishay has started to introduce the
EFQM (European Foundation for Quality Management) methodology for structuring its Total Quality
Management approach. This methodology, similar to
the Malcolm Baldrige process, consists in selfassessing the various Vishay divisions and facilities
according to nine business criteria:
Leadership
People
Policy & Strategy
Partnership & Resources
Processes

The assessments are conducted on a yearly basis by

trained and empowered, internal Vishay assessors.
This permits the identification of keypriority improvement projects and the measurement of the progress
accomplished.
The EFQM methodology helps Vishay to achieve
world-class business excellence.
Empowered Improvement Teams (EITs)
At Vishay we believe that every person in the company has a contribution to make in meeting our target
of customer satisfaction. Management therefore
empowers employees to higher and higher levels of
motivation, thus achieving higher levels of effectiveness and productivity. Empowered improvement
teams, which are both functional and cross functional,
combine the varied talents from across the breadth of
the company. By taking part in training, these teams
are continually searching for ways to improve their
jobs, achieving satisfaction for themselves, the company and most important of all the customer.

TQM Tools
As part of its search for excellence, Vishay employs
many different techniques and tools. The most important of them are:
Auditing
As well as third party auditing employed for approval
by ISO 9000 and customers, Vishay carries out its
own internal and external auditing. There is a common auditing procedure for suppliers and sub-contractors between the Vishay entities. This procedure
is also used for inter-company auditing between the
facilities within Vishay. It is based on the "Continuous
Improvement" concept with heavy emphasis on the
use of SPC and other statistical tools for the control
and reduction of variability.
Internal audits are carried out on a routine basis. They
include audits of satellite facilities (i.e., sales offices,
warehousing etc.). Audits are also used widely to
determine attitudes and expectations both within and
outside the company.
more efficient and promoting common understanding

among team members of the methods and principles
used.
Gauge Repeatability and Reproducibility
(GR&R)
This technique is used to determine equipments suitability for purpose. It is used to make certain that all
equipment is capable of functioning to the required
accuracy and repeatability. All new equipment is
approved before use by this technique.
Quality Function Deployment (QFD)
QFD is a method for translating customer requirements into recognizable requirements for Vishays
marketing, design, research, manufacturing and
sales (including after-sales). QFD is a process, which
brings together the life cycle of a product from its conception, through design, manufacture, distribution
and use until it has served its expected life.
Quality Service
Vishay believes that quality of service is equally as
important as the technical ability of its products to
meet their required performance and reliability.
Our objectives therefore include:
On-time delivery
Short response time to customers requests
Rapid and informed technical support
Fast handling of complaints
A partnership with our customers
18351
Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA)

FMEA is a technique for analyzing the possible methods of failure and their effect upon the performance/
reliability of the product/process. Process FMEAs are
performed for all processes. In addition, product
FMEAs are performed on all critical or customer products.
Design of Experiments (DOE)
There is a series of tools that may be used for the statistical design of experiments. It consists of a formalized procedure for optimizing and analyzing
experiments in a controlled manner. Taguchi and factorial experiment design are included in this. They
provide a major advantage in determining the most
important input parameters, making the experiment

Customer Complaints
Complaints fall mainly into two categories:
Logistical
Technical
www.vishay.com
101

Vishay has a procedure detailing the handling of complaints. Initially complaints are forwarded to the
appropriate sales office where in-depth information
describing the problem, using the Vishay Product
Analysis Request and Return Form (PARRF), is of
considerable help in giving a fast and accurate
response. If it is necessary to send back the product
for logistical reasons, the Sales Office issues a
Returned Material Authorization (RMA) number. On
receipt of the goods in good condition, credit is automatically issued. If there is a technical reason for
complaint, sample together with the PARRF is sent to
the Sales Office for forwarding to the Failure Analysis
Department of the supplying facility. The devices
receipt will be acknowledged and a report issued on
completion of the analysis. The cycle time this analysis has set targets and is constantly monitored in
order to improve the response time. Failure analysis
normally consists of electrical testing, functional testing, mechanical analysis (including X-ray), decapsulation, visual analysis and electrical probing. Other
specialized techniques (i.e. LCD, thermal imaging,

SEM, acoustic microscopy) may be used if necessary.
If the analysis uncovers a quality problem, Corrective
Action Report (CAR) in 8D format will be issued. Any
subsequent returns are handled with the RMA procedure.

Change Notification
All product and process changes are controlled and
released via ECN (Engineering Change Notification).
This requires the approval of the relevant departments. In the case of a major change, the change is
forwarded to customers via Sales/ Marketing before
implementation. Where specific agreements are in
place, the change will not be implemented unless
approved by the customer.
Ship-to-Stock/Ship-to-Line (STS/STL)
Many customers now require devices to be shipped
direct to stock or to the production line by omitting any
goods inwards inspection. Vishay welcomes such
agreements as part of its customer partnership program, which promises an open approach in every
aspect of its business. A product will only be supplied
as STS or STL if there is a valid agreement in place
between the two companies. Such an agreement
details the quality level targets agreed upon between
the companies and the methods to be used in case of
problems.

Assurance Program
Though both quality and reliability are designed into
all Vishay products, three basic programs must
assure them:
Average Outgoing Quality (AOQ)
100 % testing is followed by sample testing to
measure the defect level of the shipped product.
This defect level (AOQ) is measured in ppm (parts
per million).
Reliability qualification program
to assure that the design, process or change is
reliable.
Reliability monitoring program
to measure and assure that there is no decrease
in the reliability of the product.
AOQ Program
Before leaving the factory, all products are sampled
after 100% testing to ensure that they meet a minimum quality level and to measure the level of defects.
The results are accumulated and expressed in ppm
(parts per million). They are the measure of the average number of potentially failed parts in deliveries
over a period of time. The sample size used is determined by AQL or LTPD tables depending upon the
product. No rejects are allowed in the sample.
The AOQ value is calculated monthly using the
method defined in standard JEDEC 16:
6
AOQ = p LAR 10 ppm

where:
number of devices rejected
p = -------------------------------------------------------------------------------total number of devices tested
LAR = lot acceptance rate:
number of lots rejected
LAR = 1 --------------------------------------------------------------------total number of lots tested
18357

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06
The AOQ values are recorded separately with regard

to electrical and mechanical (visual) rejects by product type and package.
The actual qualification procedure depends on which
of these (or combinations of these) are to be qualified.
Normally there are three categories of qualification in
order of degree of qualification and testing required:
New technology or process (this includes a new
design on a new process)
www.vishay.com
105

New product or re-designed product using a qualified process
New package including piece-part or material
change
New manufacturing location
Minor change of process, assembly or package
Accelerated testing is normally used in order to produce results fast. The stress level employed depends
upon the failure mode investigated. The stress test is
set so that the level used gives the maximum acceleration without introducing any new or untypical failure
mode.
The tests used consist of a set of the following:

High temperature life test (static)
High temperature life test (dynamic)
HTRB (High Temperature Reverse Bias)
Humidity 85/85 (with or without bias)
HAST (Highly Accelerated Stress Test)
Temperature cycling
High-temperature storage
Low-temperature storage
Marking permanency
Lead integrity
Solderability
Resistance to solder heat
Mechanical shock (not plastic packages)
Vibration (not plastic packages)
ESD characterization
SMD devices only are subjected to preconditioning to
simulate board assembly techniques using the methods defined in standard JSTD 020A before being subjected to stresses.
Normally, the endpoint tests are related to the data
sheet or to specified parameters. Additionally, they
may include:
Destructive physical analysis
X-ray
Delamination testing using scanning acoustic
microscope
Thermal imaging

Reliability Monitoring & Wear Out
Reliability Principles
The monitoring program consists of short-term monitoring to provide fast feedback on a regular basis in
case of a reduction in reliability and to measure the
Early-life Failure Rate (EFR). At the same time, Longterm monitoring is used to determinate the Long-term
steady-state Failure Rate (LFR). The tests used are a
subset from those used for qualification and consist
of:
Life tests
Humidity tests
Temperature-cycling tests
Solderability tests
Resistance-to-solder-heat test
The actual tests used depend on the product
tested.
Depending on the assembly volume a yearly monitoring and wear out test plan is created.
Wear Out data are very important in Opto electronic
device. Out of that data degradation curves can be
made. These curves show the long time behavior of
the different devices.
Some typical curves are attached in this report.
Reliability is the probability of survival as a function of

time and stress, and is usually expressed in terms of
FITs (failures in 109 device hours). It is expressed as:
failure
failure
rate
rate
Early-life
Early-life

(EFR)
(EFR)
Operating
Operatinglife
lifefailures
failures
(LFR)
(LFR)
F(t) + R(t) = 1 or R(t) = 1 F(t)

where:
R(t) = probability of survival
F(t) = probability of failure
F(t) = 1-e-Ot
where
O = instantaneous failure rate
t = time
thus,
R(t) = e-Ot
The lifetime distribution or hazard rate curve is shown
on figure 4. This curve is also known as the 'bath-tub
curve' because of its shape. There are three basic
sections:
Early-life failures (infant mortality)
Operating-life failures (random failures)
Wear-out failures

18374

The failure rate (l) during the constant (random) failure period is determined from life-test data. The failure rate is calculated from the formula:
r
r
O = ------------------------------------------- = ---6 Fi ti + N t
C
where
www.vishay.com
108

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06

O

r
= number of observed failures
fi
= failure number
= time to defect
ti
N
= good sample size
t
= entire operating time
C
= number of Components X hours
The result is expressed in either
a)
% per 1000 component hours by
multiplying by 105
or in
b)
FITs by multiplying by 109
(1 FIT = 10-9 hours -1)
Example 1: Determination of failure rate O 500
devices were operated over a period of 2000
hours (t) with:
1 failure (f1) after 1000 hours (t1) and
1 failure (f2) after 1500 hours (t2).
The failure rate of the given example can be
calculated as follows:
2
O = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 1000h + 1 1500h + 498 2000h
O = 2 10
hours
-1
That means that this sample has an average

failure rate of 0.2 %/1000 hours or 2000 FIT
Observed failure rates as measured above are for the

specific lot of devices tested. If the predicted failure
rate for the total population is required, statistical confidence factors have to be applied.
The confidence factors can be obtained from "chi
square" (F2) charts. Normally, these charts show the
value of (F2/2) rather than F2. The failure rate is calculated by dividing the F2/2 factor by the number of component hours.

This means that the failure rate of the population

will not exceed 3085 FIT with a probability of 60%
Accelerated Stress Testing

In order to be able to assure long operating life with a
reasonable confidence, Vishay carries out accelerated testing on all its products. The normal accelerating factor is the temperature of operation. Most failure
mechanisms of semiconductors are dependent upon
temperature. This temperature dependence is best
described by the Arrhenius equation.
O T2 = O T1 u e
EA
1
-------- u ------ 1-
T1 -----k
T2
where
k
= Boltzmann's constant 8.63 x 10-5 eV/K
EA
= Activation energy (eV)
T1
= Operation temperature (K)
= Stress temperature (K)
T2
OT1 = Operation failure rate
OT2 = Stress-test failure rate
Using this equation, it is possible from the stress test
results to predict what would happen in use at the normal temperature of operation.
Activation Energy
Provided the stress testing does not introduce a failure mode, which would not occur in practice, this
method gives an acceptable method for predicting
reliability using short test periods compared to the life
of the device. It is necessary to know the activation
www.vishay.com
109

energy of the failure mode occurring during the accelerated testing. This can be determined by experiment. In practice, it is unusual to find a failure or if
there is, it is a random failure mode. For this reason
an average activation energy is normally used for this
calculation. Though activation energies can vary
between 0.3 and 2.2 eV, under the conditions of use,
activation energies of between 0.6 and 0.9 eV are
used depending upon the technology.

EFR (Early Life Failure Rate)
This is defined as the proportion of failures, which will
occur during the warranty period of the system for
which they were designed. In order to standardize this
period, Vishay uses 1000 operation hours as the reference period. This is the figure also used by the
automotive industry; it equates to one year in the life
of an automobile. In order to estimate this figure,
Vishay normally operates a sample of devices for 48
or 168 hours under the accelerated conditions
detailed above. The Arrhenius law is then used as
before to calculate the failure rate at 55 C with a confidence level of 60 %. This figure is multiplied by 1000
to give the failures in 1000 hours and by 106 to give a
failure in ppm. All EFR figures are quoted in ppm
(parts per million).
Climatic Tests Models
Temperature cycling failure rate The inverse power
law is used to model fatigue failures of materials that
are subjected to thermal cycling. For the purpose of
accelerated testing, this model relationship is called
Coffin-Manson relationship, and can be expressed as
follows:
'T stress M
A F = ----------------------
'T use
where:
AF
= Acceleration factor
'Tuse = temp. range under normal operation
'Tstress = temp. range under stress operation
M
= constant characteristic of the failure
mechanism.

Moisture effect modeling is based upon the HowardPecht-Peck model using the acceleration factor of the
equation shown below:

A F = ----------------------- e

where:
RHstress = relative humidity during test
RHuse = relative humidity during operation
Tstress = temperature during test
Tuse = temperature during operation
EA = activation energy
k = Boltzmann constant
C = material constant
For instance:
RHstress = 85 % RHuse = 92 %
Tuse = 313 K
Tstress = 358 K

This example shows how to transform test conditions
into environmental or into another test conditions.
This equation is applicable for devices subjected to
temperature humidity bias (THB) testing.
Using these acceleration factors the useful lifetime
can be calculated. Applying the acceleration factor
once more, useful lifetime for the moisture effect
model for parts subjected to THB can be estimated by
the following equation:
A F test hours
Useful life Years = ------------------------------------hours per year

hours per year = 8760
AF | 118 (40 C / 60 % RH)

Useful life Years = --------------------------- | 13.5 years

This means that operation in 40 C / 60 % RH environment is good for around 13 years, calculated out
of the 85 C/ 85 % RH 1000h humidity stress test.

Wafer Level Reliability Testing

Due to the increasing demand for complex devices
with reduced geometry, Vishay is committed to
enhancing and improving process and product quality
through the use of Wafer Level Testing (WLT).
Through the use of custom-designed and standard
test devices and structures, the on-going design as
well as the process quality and reliability are monitored both at the wafer and package level. When
implemented in the manufacturing process, they provide a rapid means of monitoring metal integrity and
parameter stability.
The main tests are:
Electro-migration
Commonly known as SWEAT (Standard Wafer- Level
Electro-migration Test), this test is used as a metallization process quality monitor.
Mobile ion instability
Special sensitive transistors are used together with
built-in heaters to measure the effect of the movement of mobile ions at the interface region.

Handling for Quality

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
Electrostatic discharge is defined as the high voltage,
which is generated when two dissimilar materials
move in contact with one another. This may be by rubbing (i.e. walking on a carpet) or by hot air or gas
passing over an insulated object. Sometimes, ESD is
easily detectable as when a person is discharged to
ground (shock).
Electronic devices may be irreversibly damaged
when subjected to this discharge. They can also be
damaged if they are charged to a high voltage and
then discharged to ground.
Damage due to ESD may occur at any point in the
process of manufacture and use of the device. ESD is
a particular problem if the humidity is low (< 40 %)
which is very common in non-humidified but air-conditioned buildings. ESD is not just generated by the
human body but can also occur with un-grounded
machinery.
ESD may cause a device to fail immediately or damage a device so that it will fail later. Whether this happens or not, usually depends on the energy available
in the ESD pulse.
All ESD-sensitive Vishay products are protected by
means of
Protection structures on chip
ESD protection measures during handling and
shipping
Vishay has laid down procedures, which detail the
methods to be used for protection against ESD. These
measures meet or exceed those of EN61340-5-1 or
MIL-STD-1686, the standards for ESD-protective and
preventative measures.
These include the use of:
Grounded wrist straps
Grounded benches
Conductive floors
Protective clothing
Controlled humidity
It also lays down the methods for routinely checking
these and other items such as the grounding of
machines.
A semiconductor device is only completely protected
when enclosed in a Faraday Cage. This is a completely closed conductive container (i.e., sealed conductive bag or box).
Most packaging material (i.e. tubes) used for semiconductors is now manufactured from antistatic material or anti-static-coated material. This does not mean

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06

with a maximum temperature of 245 C maximum
2 x with the total restricted to 3 soldering operations
Note: certain components may have limitations due to
their construction.
Dry pack
When being stored, certain types of device packages
can absorb moisture, which is released during the soldering operations, thus causing damage to the
device. The so-called popcorn effect is such an
example. To prevent this, Surface Mount Devices
(SMD) are evaluated during qualification, using a test
consisting of moisture followed by soldering simulation (pre-conditioning) and then subjected to various
stress tests. In table Number 3 - Moisture Sensitivity
Levels the six different levels, the floor life conditions as well as the soak requirements belonging to
these levels are described. Any device, which is
found to deteriorate under these conditions, is packaged in dry pack.
The dry-packed devices are packed generally according to EIA-583 Packaging Material Standards for
Moisture Sensitive Items, IPC-SM-786 Recommended Procedures for Handling of Moisture Sensitive Plastic IC Packages.
The following are general recommendations:
Shelf life in the packaging at < 40 C and 90 % RH
is 12 months.
After opening, the devices should be handled
according to the specifications mentioned on the
dry-pack label.
If the exposure or storage time is exceeded, the
devices should be baked:
Low-temperature baking - 192 hours at 40 C and
5 % RH
High-temperature backing - 24 hours at 125 C.
that the devices are completely protected from ESD,

only that the packing will not generate ESD. Devices
are completely protected only when surrounded on all
sides by a conductive package.
It should also be remembered that devices can
equally as easily be damaged by discharge from a
high voltage to ground as vice-versa.
Testing for ESD resistance is part of the qualification
procedure. The methods used are detailed in MILSTD-883 Method 3015.7 (Human Body Model) and
EOS/ESD-S5.1-1993 (Machine Model) specification.
Latch-up
The latch-up effect is a state in which a low impedance path results and persists following an input, output or the latch-up effect is a state in which a low
impedance path supply over voltage that triggers a
parasitic Thyristor.
Due to this effect an over current occurs in the IC,
which can destroy the IC. At least the supply voltage
of the IC must be cut off to get back the IC in a defined
state.
Normally, the latch-up test is carried out just at CMOS
ICs. This CMOS latch-up test is according to the
JEDEC 17 standard. For Bipolar ICs, there is no standard available so far.
Soldering
All products are tested to ascertain their ability to withstand the industry standard soldering conditions after
storage. In general, these conditions are as follows.
Hand soldering: 260 C, 2 mm from the device
body for 10 s.
Wave soldering: Double-wave soldering according
to CECC 00802 maximum 2 x total restricted to 3
soldering operations
Reflow soldering: convection soldering according
to CECC 00802 with a maximum temperature of
260 C, maximum 2 x with the total restricted to 3
soldering operations, IR soldering to CECC 00802

Reliability & Statistics Glossary
Definitions
Accelerated Life Test: A life test under conditions
those are more severe than usual operating conditions. It is helpful, but not necessary, that a relationship between test severity and the probability
distribution of life be ascertainable.
Acceleration Factor: Notation: f(t) = the time transformation from more severe test conditions to the
usual conditions. The acceleration factor is f(t)/t. The
differential acceleration factor is df(t)/dt.
Acceptance number: The largest numbers of
defects that can occur in an acceptance sampling
plan and still have the lot accepted.
Acceptance Sampling Plan: An accept/reject test
the purpose of which is to accept or reject a lot of
items or material based on random samples from the
lot.
Assessment: A critical appraisal including qualitative
judgements about an item, such as importance of
analysis results, design criticality, and failure effect.
Attribute (Inspection By): A term used to designate
a method of measurement whereby units are examined by noting the presence (or absence) of some
characteristic or attribute in each of the units in the
group under consideration and by counting how many
units do (or do not) possess it. Inspection by attributes
can be two kinds: either the unit of product is classified simply as defective or no defective or the number
of defects in the unit of product is counted with
respect to a given requirement or set of requirements.
Attribute Testing: Testing to evaluate whether or not
an item possesses a specified attribute.
Auger Electron Spectrometer: An instrument, which
identifies elements on the surface of a sample. It
excites the area of interest with an electron beam and
observes the resultant emitted Auger electrons.
These electrons have the specific characteristics of
the near surface elements. It is usually used to identify very thin films, often surface contaminants.
Availability (Operational Readiness): The probability that at any point in time the system is either operating satisfactorily or ready to be placed in operation
on demand when used under stated conditions.
Average Outgoing Quality (AOQ): The average
quality of outgoing product after 100 % inspection of
rejected lot, with replacement by good units of all
defective units found in inspection.

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06
Bathtub Curve: A plot of failure rate of an item

(whether repairable or not) vs. time. The failure rate
initially decreases, then stays reasonably constant,
then begins to rise rather rapidly. It has the shape of
bathtub. Not all items have this behaviour.
Bias: (1) The difference between the s-expected
value of an estimator and the value of the true parameter; (2) Applied voltage.
Burn-in: The initial operation of an item to stabilize its
characteristics and to minimize infant mortality in the
field.

asserted that the parameters of a probability distribution lies.
Confidence Level:
Equals 1 - D where D = the risk (%).
Corrective Action: A documented design, process,
procedure, or materials change to correct the true
cause of a failure. Part replacement with a like item
does not constitute appropriate corrective action.
Rather, the action should make it impossible for that
failure to happen again.
Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF): The probability that the random variable takes on any value
less than or equal to a value x, e.g.
F(x) = CDF (x) = Pr (x d X).
Defect: A deviation of an item from some ideal state.
The ideal state usually is given in a formal specification.
Degradation: A gradual deterioration in performance
as a function of time.
Derating: The intentional reduction of stress /
strength ratio in the application of an item, usually for
the purpose of reducing the occurrence of stressrelated failures.
Duty Cycle: A specified operating time of an item, followed by a specified time of no operation.
Early Failure Period: That period of life, after final
assembly, in which failures occur at an initially high
rate because of the presence of defective parts and
workmanship. This definition applies to the first part of
the bathtub curve for failure rate (infant mortality).
EDX Spectrometer: Generally used with a scanning
electron microscope (SEM) to provide elemental
analysis of X-rays generated on the region being hit
by the primary electron beam.
Effectiveness: The capability of the system or device
to perform its function.
EOS Electrical Overstress: The electrical stressing of electronic components beyond specifications.
May be caused by ESD.
www.vishay.com
115

ESD Electrostatic Discharge: The transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies at different electrostatic potentials caused by direct contact or induced
by an electrostatic field. Many electronic components
are sensitive to ESD and will be degraded or fail.
Expected Value: A statistical term. If x is a random
variable and F (x) it its CDF, the E (x) = xdF (x), where
the integration is over all x. For continuous variables
with a pfd, this reduces to E (x) = x pfd (x) dx. For discrete random variables with a pfd, this reduces to
E (x) = 6xnp (xn) where the sum is over all n.
Exponential Distribution: A 1-parameter distribution
(O > 0, t d 0) with: pfd (t) = lexp (-Ot);
Cdf (t) 0 1 exp (-Ot); Sf (t) = exp (-Ot) ;

constant failure-rate-distribution.
Failure: The termination of the ability of an item to perform its required function.

mode, the failure mechanism, and the cause (i.e.,
defective soldering, design weakness, contamination,
assembly techniques, etc.). Often includes physical
dissection.
Failure, Catastrophic: A sudden change in the operating characteristics of an item resulting in a complete
loss of useful performance of the item.
Failure, Degradation: A failure that occurs as a result
of a gradual or partial change in the operating characteristics of an item.
Failure, Initial: The first failure to occur in use.
Failure, Latent: A malfunction that occurs as a result
of a previous exposure to a condition that did not
result in an immediately detectable failure. Example:
Latent ESD failure.
Failure Mechanism: The mechanical, chemical, or
other process that results in a failure.
Failure Mode: The effect by which a failure is
observed. Generally, describes the way the failure
occurs and tells "how" with respect to operation.
Failure Rate: (A) The conditional probability density
that the item will fail just after time t, given the item has
not failed up to time t; (B) The number of failures of an
item per unit measure of life (cycles, time, miles,
events, etc.) as applicable for the item.
Failure, Wearout: Any failure for which time of occurrence is governed by rapidly increasing failure rate.
FIT: Failure Unit; (also, Failures In Time) Failures per
109 hours.
Functional Failure: A failure whereby a device does
not perform its intended function when the inputs or
controls are correct.

item; t = the interval over which the mean life is
desired, usually the useful life (longevity).

same as mean life except that it is for repaired items
and is the mean up-time of the item. The formula is
the same as for mean life except that R(t) is inter-

sent to a higher echelon for repair.
Operating Characteristic (OC) Curve: A curve
showing the relation between the probability of acceptance and either lot quality or process quality, whichever is applicable.
Part Per Million (PPM): PPM is arrived at by multiplying the percentage defective by 10,000.
Example: 0.1 % = 1,000 PPM.
Population: The totality of the set of items, units,
measurements, etc., real or conceptual that is under
consideration.
Probability Distribution: A mathematical function
with specific properties, which describes the probability that a random variable will take on a value or set of

are obtained from manufacturers or distributors,
examined and tested, and then identified on a Qualified Product List.
Quality: A property, which refers to, the tendency of
an item to be made to specific specifications and / or
the customers express needs. See current publications by Juran, Deming, Crosby, et al.
Quality Assurance: A system of activities that provides assurance that the overall quality control job is,
in fact, being done effectively. The system involves a
continuing evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of the overall quality control program with a view
to having corrective measures initiated where necessary. For a specific product or service, this involves
verifications, audits, and the evaluation of the quality
factors that affect the specification, production
inspection, and use of the product or service.

Rev. 1.3, 20-Sep-06
Quality Characteristics: Those properties of an item

or process, which can be measured, reviewed, or
observed and which are identified in the drawings,

resource commitment, to improve design, purchasing, production, and inspection procedures to improve
the reliability of a design.
Risk: D : The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis falsely.
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM): An instrument, which provides a visual image of the surface
features of an item. It scans an electron beam over
the surface of a sample while held in a vacuum and
collects any of several resultant particles or energies.
The SEM provides depth of field and resolution significantly exceeding light microscopy and may be used
at magnifications exceeding 50,000 times.
Screening Test: A test or combination of tests
intended to remove unsatisfactory items or those
likely to exhibit early failures.
Significance: Results that show deviations between
hypothesis and the observations used as a test of the
hypothesis, greater than can be explained by random

hypothesis under test were true, a sample test statistic would be as bad as or worse than the observed
test statistic.
SPC: Statistical Process Control.
Storage Life (Shelf Life): The length of time an item

meet specified requirements.
Stress: A general and ambiguous term used as an
extension of its meaning in mechanics as that which

Definitions:
In the Vishay transceiver data sheets the following nomenclature is used for defining the IrDA operating modes:
SIR: 2.4 kbit/s to 115.2 kbit/s, equivalent to the basic serial infrared standard with the physical layer version IrPhY 1.0
MIR: 576 kbit/s to 1152 kbit/s
FIR: 4 Mbit/s
VFIR: 16 Mbit/s
MIR and FIR were implemented with IrPhY 1.1, followed by IrPhY 1.2, adding the SIR Low Power Standard. IrPhY 1.3 extended the Low
Power Option to MIR and FIR and VFIR was added with IrPhY 1.4. A new version of the standard in any case obsoletes the former version.

TFBS4650
Recommended Circuit Diagram
Operated at a clean low impedance power supply the
TFBS4650 needs only one additional external component when the IRED drive current should be minimized for minimum current consumption according
the low power IrDA standard. When combined operation in IrDA and Remote Control is intended no current limiting resistor is recommended.
However, depending on the entire system design and
board layout, additional components may be required
(see figure 1). When long wires are used for bench
tests, the capacitors are mandatory for testing rise/fall
time correctly.
VCC2
recommended to position C2 as close as possible to

the transceiver power supply pins.
When connecting the described circuit to the power
supply, low impedance wiring should be used.
In case of extended wiring the inductance of the
power supply can cause dynamically a voltage drop
at VCC2. Often some power supplies are not able to
follow the fast current is rise time. In that case another
10 F cap at VCC2 will be helpful.
Keep in mind that basic RF-design rules for circuit
design should be taken into account. Especially
longer signal lines should not be used without termination. See e.g. "The Art of Electronics" Paul Horowitz,
Wienfield Hill, 1989, Cambridge University Press,
ISBN: 0521370957.

Table 3.
Recommended resistor R1 [:]
Figure 1. Recommended Application Circuit
The capacitor C1 is buffering the supply voltage Vcc2

and eliminates the inductance of the power supply
line. This one should be a small ceramic version or
other fast capacitor to guarantee the fast rise time of
the IRED current. The resistor R1 is necessary for
controlling the IRED drive current when the internally
controlled current is too high for the application.
Vishay transceivers integrate a sensitive receiver and
a built-in power driver. The combination of both needs
a careful circuit board layout. The use of thin, long,
resistive and inductive wiring should be avoided. The
inputs (TXD, SD) and the output RXD should be
directly (DC) coupled to the I/O circuit.
The capacitor C2 combined with the resistor R2 is the
low pass filter for smoothing the supply voltage.
As already stated above R2, C1 and C2 are optional
and depend on the quality of the supply voltages VCCx
and injected noise. An unstable power supply with
dropping voltage during transmission may reduce the
sensitivity (and transmission range) of the transceiver.
The placement of these parts is critical. It is strongly

The TFBS4650 is a lead (Pb)-free transceiver and
qualified for lead (Pb)-free processing. For lead
(Pb)-free solder paste like Sn(3.0-4.0)Ag(0.5-0.9)Cu,
there are two standard reflow profiles: Ramp-SoakSpike (RSS) and Ramp-To-Spike (RTS). The RampSoak-Spike profile was developed primarily for reflow
ovens heated by infrared radiation. With widespread
use of forced convection reflow ovens the Ramp-ToSpike profile is used increasingly. Shown below in figure 3 is VISHAY's recommended profiles for use with
the TFBS4650 transceivers. For more details please

operating the transceiver without current control resistor (i.e. R1 = 0 :) and using the internal current control.

TFBS4652 needs only one additional external component when the IRED drive current should be minimized for minimum current consumption according
the low power IrDA standard. When combined operation in IrDA and Remote Control is intended no current limiting resistor is recommended. When long
wires are used for bench tests, the capacitors are
mandatory for testing rise/fall time correctly.

The capacitor C1 is buffering the supply voltage VCC2

the IRED current. The resistor R1 is necessary for
controlling the IRED drive current when the internally
controlled current is too high for the application.
As already stated above R2, C1 and C2 are optional
and depend on the quality of the supply voltages VCCx
and injected noise. An unstable power supply with
dropping voltage during transmission may reduce the
sensitivity (and transmission range) of the transceiver.

Rev. 1.1, 03-Jul-06

When connecting the described circuit to the power
supply, low impedance wiring should be used.
In case of extended wiring the inductance of the
at VCC2. Often some power supplies are not apply to
10 F cap at VCC2 will be helpful.

TFBS4710
Serial Infrared Transceiver SIR, 115.2 kbit/s,

2.7 V to 5.5 V Operation
Description
The TFBS4710 is a low profile, full range Infrared
Data Transceiver module. It supports IrDA data rates
up to 115.2 kbit/s (SIR). The transceiver module consists of a photo PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter
(IRED), and a low-power CMOS control IC to provide
a total front-end solution in a single package.
The device has a link distance of 1 meter. The RXD
pulse width is independent of the duration of TXD
pulse and always stays at a fixed width thus making
the device optimum for all standard SIR Encoder/
Decoder and interfaces. The Shut Down (SD) feature
cuts current consumption to typically 10 nA.

MIR and FIR were implemented with IrPhy 1.1, followed by IrPhy 1.2,
adding the SIR Low Power Standard. IrPhy 1.3 extended the Low
Power Option to MIR and FIR and VFIR was added with IrPhy 1.4.
A new version of the standard in any case obsoletes the former ver-

With introducing the updated versions the old versions are obsolete. Therefore the only valid IrDA standard is the actual version
IrPhy 1.4 (in Oct. 2002).

The TFBS4710 integrates a sensitive receiver and a

built-in power driver. This combination needs a careful circuit layout. The use of thin, long, resistive and
inductive wiring should be avoided. The inputs (TXD,
SD) and the output (RXD) should be directly (DC)
coupled to the I/O circuit.
The combination of resistor R1 and capacitors C1,
C2, C3 and C4 filter out any power supply noise to
provide a smooth supply voltage.
The placement of these components is critical. It is
strongly recommended to position C3 and C4 as
close as possible to the transceiver power supply
pins. A Tantalum capacitor should be used for C1 and
C3 while a ceramic capacitor should be used for C2
and C4.
A current limiting resistor is not needed for normal
operation. It is strongly recommended to use the Rled
values mentioned in Table 1 below for high temperature operation. For Low Power Mode, IRED Anode
voltage of less than 5 V is recommended.
Under extreme EMI conditions as placing a RF transmitter antenna on top of the transceiver, it is recommended to protect all inputs by a low-pass filter, as
a minimum a 12 pF capacitor, especially at the RXD
port.
Basic RF design rules for circuit design should be followed. Especially longer signal lines should not be
used without proper termination. For reference see
"The Art of Electronics" by Paul Horowitz, Winfield
Hill, 1989, Cambridge University Press, ISBN:
0521370957.

Description
The TFBS4711 is a low profile, Infrared Data Transceiver module. It supports IrDA data rates up to
115.2 kbit/s (SIR). The transceiver module consists of
a PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a
low-power CMOS control IC to provide a total frontend solution in a single package.
The device is designed for the low power IrDA standard with an extended range on-axis up to 1 m. The
RXD pulse width is independent of the duration of
TXD pulse and always stays at a fixed width thus
making the device optimum for all standard SIR
Encoder/ Decoder and interfaces. The Shut Down

TFBS4711 needs no additional external components
when the internal current control is used. For reducing
the IRED drive current for low power applications with
reduced range an additional resistor can be used to
connect the IRED to the separate power supply.
Depending on the entire system design and board
layout, additional components may be required. (see
figure 3).
Worst-case conditions are test set-ups with long
cables to power supplies. In such a case capacitors
are necessary to compensate the effect of the cable
inductance. In case of small applications as e.g.
mobile phones where the power supply is close to the
transceiver big capacitors are normally not necessary. The capacitor C1 is buffering the supply voltage
the IRED current. The resistor R1 is optional for
reducing the IRED drive current.

directly (DC) coupled to the I/O circuit
low pass filter for smoothing the supply voltage when
noisy supply voltage is used or pick-up via the wiring
is expected.
R2, C1 and C2 are optional and dependent on the
quality of the supply voltage VCCX and injected noise.
An unstable power supply with dropping voltage during transmission may reduce the sensitivity (and
transmission range) of the transceiver.
In any case, when connecting the described circuit to
the power supply, low impedance wiring should be
used.
When extended wiring is used the inductance of the
at VCC2. Often some power supplies are not to follow
the fast current rise time. In that case another 10 F
capacitor at VCC2 will be helpful.
The recommended components in table 1 are for test
set-ups
Keep in mind that basic RF - design rules for circuit
longer signal lines should not be used without termination. See e.g. "The Art of Electronics" Paul Horowitz, Winfield Hill, 1989, Cambridge University Press,

Description
The TFDU4100 is an infrared transceiver module
compliant with the IrDA standard for serial infrared
(SIR) data communication, supporting IrDA speeds
up to 115.2 kbit/s. The transceiver module consists of
a PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a
low-power analog control IC to provide a total frontend solution in a single package. This SIR transceiver
is using the small BabyFace package. The transceivers are capable of directly interfacing with a wide variety of I/O chips which perform the pulse-width
modulation/demodulation function, including Vishay
Semiconductors TOIM4232. At a minimum, a cur-
20110
rent-limiting resistor in series with the infrared emitter

and a VCC bypass capacitor are the only external
components required to implement a complete solution.

The only required components for designing an IrDA

SIR transceivers are a current limiting resistor to the
IRED. However, depending on the entire system
design and board layout, additional components may
be required (see figure 1). It is recommended that the
capacitors C1 and C2 are positioned as near as possible to the transceiver power supply pins. A tantalum
capacitor should be used for C1, while a ceramic
capacitor should be used for C2 to suppress RF
noise. Also, when connecting the described circuit to

R1 is used for controlling the current through the IR

emitter. For increasing the output power of the IRED,
the value of the resistor should be reduced. Similarly,
to reduce the output power of the IRED, the value of
the resistor should be increased. For typical values of
R1 (see figures 2 and 3), e.g. for IrDA compliant operation (VCC2 = 5 V 5 %), a current control resistor of
14 : is recommended. The upper drive current limitation is dependent on the duty cycle and is given by the
absolute maximum ratings on the data sheet and the
eye safety limitations given by IEC825.1. R2, C1 and

The sensitivity control (SC) pin allows the minimum

detection irradiance threshold of the transceiver to be
lowered when set to a logic HIGH. Lowering the irradiance threshold increases the sensitivity to infrared
signals and increases transmission range up to 3
meters. However, setting the Pin SC to logic HIGH
also makes the transceiver more susceptible to transmission errors due to an increased sensitivity to fluorescent light disturbances. It is recommended to set
the Pin SC to logic LOW or left open if the increased
range is not required or if the system will be operating
in bright ambient light.
cally 5 nA). The settling time after switching VCC1/SD

on again is approximately 50 Ps. Vishay Semiconductors TOIM4232 interface circuit is designed for this
shutdown feature. The VCC_SD, S0 or S1 outputs on
the TOIM4232 can be used to power the transceiver
with the necessary supply current. If the microcontroller or the microprocessor is unable to drive the supply
current required by the transceiver, a low-cost SOT23
pnp transistor can be used to switch voltage on and
off from the regulated power supply (see figure 5).
The additional component cost is minimal and saves
the system designer additional power supply costs.
Shutdown
The internal switch for the IRED in Vishay Semiconductors SIR transceivers is designed to be operated
like an open collector driver. Thus, the VCC2 source
can be an unregulated power supply while only a well
regulated power source with a supply current of 1.3
mA connected to VCC1/SD is needed to provide power
to the remainder of the transceiver circuitry in receive
mode. The term VCC1/SD is used here for the power
supply pin to indicate that VCC1 can be switched off
independently to shut down the transceiver. It is
allowed to keep the power supply connected to the
IRED Anode. In transmit mode, the current at VCC1 is
slightly higher (approximately 4 mA average at 3 V
supply current) and the voltage is not required to be
kept as stable as in receive mode. A voltage drop of
VCC1 is acceptable down to about 2.0 V when buffering the voltage directly from the Pin VCC1 to GND see
figure 1). This configuration minimizes the influence
of high current surges from the IRED on the internal
analog control circuitry of the transceiver and the
application circuit. Also board space and cost savings
can be achieved by eliminating the additional linear
regulator normally needed for the IREDs high current
requirements. The transceiver can be very efficiently
shutdown by keeping the IRED connected to the
power supply VCC2 but switching off VCC1/SD. The
power source to VCC1/SD can be provided directly
from a microcontroller (see figure 4). In shutdown,
current loss is realized only as leakage current
through the current limiting resistor to the IRED (typiDocument Number 82514

A ramp-up rate less than 0.9 C/s is not recommended. Ramp-up rates faster than 1.3 C/s could
damage an optical part because the thermal conductivity is less than compared to a standard IC.

TFDU4101
Infrared Transceiver Module (SIR, 115.2 kbit/s)

for IrDA Applications
Description
The TFDU4101 transceiver is an infrared transceiver
module compliant to the latest IrDA physical layer
standard for fast infrared data communication, supporting IrDA speeds up to 115.2 kbit/s (SIR), and carrier based remote control modes. Integrated within
the transceiver module are a photo PIN diode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a low-power control IC to
provide a total front-end solution in a single package.
This device covers the full IrDA range of more than
1 m using the internal intensity control. With one external current control resistor the current can be adjusted for shorter ranges saving operating current
operating in IrDA low power mode. This Vishay SIR
transceiver is using the lead frame technology.
The receiver output pulse duration is independent of
20110
the optical input pulse duration and recovers always a

fixed pulse duration optimum for compatibility to
standard Endecs and interfaces. TFDU4101 has a tristate output and is floating in shutdown mode with a
weak pull-up.

MIR and FIR were implemented with the physical layer standard IrPhy 1.1, followed by IrPhy 1.2, adding the SIR Low Power Standard.
IrPhy 1.3 extended the Low Power Option to MIR and FIR and VFIR was added with IrPhy 1.4. A new version of the standard in any case
obsoletes the former version.

Using an external current limiting resistor is allowed and recommended to reduce IRED intensity and operating current when current
reduction is intended to operate at the IrDA low power conditions.
E.g. for VCC2 = 3.3 V a current limiting resistor of Rs = 56 : will allow a power minimized operation at IrDA low power conditions.

Due to this wavelength restriction compared to the IrDA spec of 850 nm to 900 nm the transmitter is able to operate as source for the
standard Remote Control applications with codes as e. g. Philips RC5/RC6 or RECS 80.

*) R1 is optional when reduced intensity is used.
The capacitor C1 is buffering the supply voltage and

eliminates the inductance of the power supply line.
This one should be a Tantalum or other fast capacitor
to guarantee the fast rise time of the IRED current.
The resistor R1 is the current limiting resistor, which
may be used to reduce the operating current to levels
below the specified controlled values for saving battery power.
VISHAY's transceivers integrate a sensitive receiver
and a built-in power driver. The combination of both
needs a careful circuit board layout. The use of thin,
long, resistive and inductive wiring should be avoided.
The shutdown input must be grounded for normal
operation, also when the shutdown function is not
used.
The inputs (TXD, SD) and the output RXD should be

directly connected (DC - coupled) to the I/O circuit.
low pass filter for smoothing the supply voltage. R2,
C1 and C2 are optional and dependent on the quality
of the supply voltages VCC1 and injected noise. An
unstable power supply with dropping voltage during
transmission may reduce the sensitivity (and transmission range) of the transceiver.
When extended wiring is used (bench tests!) the
inductance of the power supply can cause dynamically a voltage drop at VCC2. Often some power supplies are not able to follow the fast current rise time.
In that case another 4.7 F (type, see table under C1)
at VCC2 will be helpful.
Under extreme EMI conditions as placing an RFtransmitter antenna on top of the transceiver, we recommend to protect all inputs by a low-pass filter, as a
minimum a 12 pF capacitor, especially at the RXD
port. The transceiver itself withstands EMI at GSM
frequencies above 500 V/m. When interference is
observed, the wiring to the inputs picks it up. It is verified by DPI measurements that as long as the interfering RF - voltage is below the logic threshold levels
of the inputs and equivalent levels at the outputs no
interferences are expected.
One should keep in mind that basic RF - design rules
for circuit design should be taken into account. Especially longer signal lines should not be used without
termination. See e.g. "The Art of Electronics" Paul
Horowitz, Winfield Hill, 1989, Cambridge University
Press, ISBN: 0521370957.

Figure 2 shows an example of a typical application
with a separate supply voltage VS and using the
transceiver with the IRED Anode connected to the
unregulated battery Vbatt. This method reduces the
peak load of the regulated power supply and saves
therefore costs. Alternatively all supplies can also be
tied to only one voltage source. R1 and C1 are not
used in this case and are depending on the circuit
design in most cases not necessary.
In figure 2 an option is shown to operate the transmitter at two different power levels to switch for long
range to low power mode for e.g. saving power for
IrDA application but use the full range specification for
Remote Control. The additional components are
marked in the figure.

TFDU4202
Application Hints
The TFDU4202 does not need any external component when operated with a "clean" power supply. In a
more noisy ambient it is recommended to add a
capacitor C1 and a resistor R1 for noise suppression.
A combination of a tantalum with a ceramics capacitor
will be efficient to attenuate both, RF and LF. The
power supply Vccp must be able to source up to
550 mA current with a fast rise time. If that cannot be
guaranteed an additional capacitor near pin 4 (Vccp)
should be included. The value is depending on the
power supply quality. A good choice is between
4.7 F and 10 F.
Latency
The receiver is in specified conditions after the
defined latency.
In a UART related application after that time after the
last transmitted signal (IrDA specifies 500 s maximum for low power applications and 10 ms maximum
for standard) the receiver buffer of the UART must be
cleared. Therefore the transceiver has to wait at least

the specified latency after receiving the last bit before
starting the transmission to be sure that the corresponding receiver is in a defined state.
For more application circuits, see IrDC Design Guide
and TOIM4232 data sheet.

Temperature Derating Diagram

The temperature derating diagram shows the maximum operating temperature when the device is operated without external current limiting resistor. A power
dissipating resistor of 2 : is recommended from the
cathode of the IRED to Ground for supply voltages
above 4 V. In that case the device can be operated up
to 85 C, too.

The TFDU4203 does not need any external components when operated with a "clean" power supply. In
a more noisy ambient it is recommended to add a
capacitor C1 (4.7 F Tantalum) and a resistor R1
(d 3 :) for noise suppression. In addition the capacitor is needed to prevent a pulse distortion when the
power supply is not able to generate the peak currents or inductive wiring is used. A combination of a
tantalum with a ceramics capacitor will be efficient to
attenuate both, RF and LF if RF noise is present. The
value is dependent on the power supply quality. A
good choice is between 4.7 F and 10 F.
The receiver is in specified conditions after the

defined latency.
In a UART related application after that time after the
last transmitted signal (IrDA specifies 500 s maximum for low power applications and 10 ms maximum
for standard) the receiver buffer of the UART must be
cleared. Therefore the transceiver has to wait at least
the specified latency after receiving the last bit before
starting the transmission to be sure that the corresponding receiver is in a defined state.
For more application circuits, see IrDC Design Guide
and TOIM4232 data sheet.
Shut down
To shut down the TFDU4203 into a standby mode the
SD pin has to be set active.

TFDU4300
Infrared Transceiver Module (SIR, 115.2 kbit/s)

Description
The TFDU4300 is a low profile (2.5 mm) infrared
transceiver module with independent logic reference
voltage (Vlogic) for low voltage IO interfacing. It is
compliant to the latest IrDA physical layer standard
for fast infrared data communication, supporting IrDA
speeds up to 115.2 kbit/s (SIR) and carrier based
remote control. The transceiver module consists of a
PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a
low-power control IC to provide a total front-end solution in a single package.
This device covers an extended IrDA low power range
of close to 1 m. With an external current control resistor the current can be adjusted for shorter ranges.
This Vishay SIR transceiver is built in a new smaller
package using the experiences of the lead frame
BabyFace technology.
20101
The RXD output pulse width is independent of the

optical input pulse width and stays always at a fixed
pulse width thus making the device optimum for standard Endecs. TFDU4300 has a tri-state output and is
floating in shut-down mode with a weak pull-up.

I/O and Software
Simplified Method
Setting the device to the long pulse duration is nothing

else than a short active SD pulse of less than 600 s.
In any case a short SD pulse will force the device to
leave the default mode and go the compatibility
mode. Backwards also an active SD can be used to
fall back into the default mode by applying that signal
for a minimum of 1.5 ms. That causes a power-onreset and sets the device to the default short pulse
mode. This simplified method takes more time but
may be easier to handle.
Programming Pulse duration Switching

After Power-on the TFBS5700 is in the default short
pulse duration mode. Some ENDECs are not able to
decode short pulses as valid SIR pulses. Therefore
an additional mode with an extended pulse duration
as in standard SIR transceivers was added in
TFBS5700. TFBS5700 is set to the short output
pulse as default after power on, also after recovering
from the shutdown mode (SD must have been longer
active than 1.5 ms). For mode changing see the following. To switch the transceivers from the short
pulse duration mode to the long pulse duration mode
and vice versa, the programming sequences
described below are required.

is quite uncritical. However, the whole change must
not take more than 600 s. See in the spec. Shutdown Active Time Window for Programming

TFBS5711
Fast Infrared Transceiver Module (MIR, 1.152 Mbit/s)

Description
The TFBS5711 is an infrared transceiver module
compliant to the latest IrDA physical layer standard for
fast infrared data communication, supporting IrDA
speeds up to 1.152 Mbit/s (MIR), HP-SIR, Sharp
ASK and carrier based remote control modes up to
2 MHz. Integrated within the transceiver module are a
PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a
low-power control IC to provide a total front-end solution in a single package.
The transceivers are capable of directly interfacing
with a wide variety of I/O devices, which perform the
modulation/ demodulation function. At a minimum a
serial resistor for current control is the only external
20208
component required in implementing a complete solution. TFBS5711 has a tri-state output and is floating in
shut-down mode with a weak pull-up.

Recommended Circuit Diagram for
IrDA and Remote Control Operation
In general Vishay transceivers are using the identical
circuit for IrDA and Remote Control operation. For
using the IrDA transceiver as an RC transmitter no
change of the operating circuit is necessary. Used
with a clean low impedance power supply the
TFBS5711 only needs an external series current limiting resistor. However, depending on the entire system design and board layout, additional external
components may be required (see figure 1).

Pulse duration Switching
After Power-on the TFBS5711 is in the default short
RXD pulse duration mode.
Some ENDECs are not able to decode short pulses
as valid SIR pulses. Therefore an additional mode
with extended pulse duration (same as in standard
SIR transceivers) is added in TFBS5711. TFBS5711
is set to the "short output pulse" as default after power
on, and after recovering from the shutdown mode (SD
being active longer than 1.5 ms).
To switch the transceivers from the short RXD pulse
duration mode to the long pulse duration mode and
vice versa, follow the procedure described below.

Figure 2. Timing Diagram for changing the output pulse duration
Simplified Method
Setting the device to the long pulse duration is simply
applying a short active (less than 600 Ps) pulse to SD
(TXD = Low). In any case a short SD pulse will force
the device to leave the default mode and go the compatibility mode. Vice versa applying a 1.5 ms (minimum) pulse at SD will cause the device to go back to
the default mode by activating a power-on-reset and
setting the device to the default short pulse mode.
This simplified method takes more time but may be
easier to handle.

on, and after recovering from the shutdown mode (SD
being active longer than 1.5 ms).
To switch the transceivers from the short RXD pulse
duration mode to the long pulse duration mode and
vice versa, follow the procedure described below.

After that TXD is now enabled as normal TXD input
and the RXD output is set for the short RXD - pulse

Simplified Method
Setting the device to the long pulse duration is simply
applying a short active (less than 600 s) pulse to
SD. In any case a short SD pulse will force the device
to leave the default mode and go the compatibility
mode. Vice versa applying a 1.5 ms (minimum) pulse
at SD will cause the device to go back to the default
mode by activating a power-on-reset and setting the
device to the default short pulse mode. This simplified
method takes more time but may be easier to handle.

Mode Switching
The TFBS6711 is in the SIR mode after power on as
a default mode, therefore the FIR data transfer rate
has to be set by a programming sequence using the
TXD and SD inputs as described below. The low frequency mode covers speeds up to 115.2 kbit/s. Signals with higher data rates should be detected in the
high frequency mode. Lower frequency data can also
be received in the high frequency mode but with
reduced sensitivity. To switch the transceivers from
low frequency mode to the high frequency mode and
vice versa, the programming sequences described
below are required.

Shutdown, also used for dynamic mode switching. Setting this pin active
places the module into shutdown mode. On the falling edge of this signal,
the state of the TXD pin is sampled and used to set receiver low bandwidth

However, at pulse duration larger than 100 s the optical output pulse duration is limited to 100 s. This pulse duration limitation can already start at 23 s.

Mode Switching
The TFDU6102 is in the SIR mode after power on as
TXD and SD inputs as described below or selected by
setting the Mode Pin. The Mode Pin can be used to
statically set the mode (Mode Pin: LOW: SIR, HIGH:
0.576 Mbit/s to 4.0 Mbit/s). If not used or in standby
mode, the mode input should float or should not be
loaded with more than 50 pF. The low frequency
mode covers speeds up to 115.2 kbit/s. Signals with
higher data rates should be detected in the high frequency mode. Lower frequency data can also be
received in the high frequency mode but with reduced
sensitivity.
To switch the transceivers from low frequency mode
to the high frequency mode and vice versa, the programming sequences described below are required.
After that TXD is enabled as normal TXD input and the

transceiver is set for the high bandwidth (576 kbit/s to
4 Mbit/s) mode.

transceiver is set for the lower bandwidth (9.6 kbit/s to
115.2 kbit/s) mode.

TXD
This input is used to transmit serial data when SD is low. An on-chip protection circuit
disables the LED driver if the TXD pin is asserted for longer than 100 s. When used
in conjunction with the SD pin, this pin is also used to receiver speed mode.

Shutdown, also used for dynamic mode switching. Setting this pin active places the
module into shutdown mode. On the falling edge of this signal, the state of the TXD pin
is sampled and used to set receiver low bandwidth (TXD = Low, SIR) or high bandwidth
(TXD = High, MIR and FIR) mode. Will be overwritten by the mode pin input, which must
float, when dynamic programming is used.

TFBS6614
TFBS6614 needs no additional external components
when the internal current control is used. For reducing
the IRED drive current for low power applications with
reduced range an additional resistor can be used to
connect the IRED to the separate power supply.
Depending on the entire system design and board
layout, additional components may be required. (see
figure 3).
Worst-case conditions are test set-ups with long
cables to power supplies. In such a case capacitors
are necessary to compensate the effect of the cable
inductance. In case of small applications as e.g.
mobile phones where the power supply is close to the
transceiver big capacitors are normally not necessary.
The TFBS6614 is designed to operate in system with
logical I/O level independent of the supply voltage. It
can interface to IR controllers with low voltage logic
from 1.5 V upwards to TTL (5 V). The reference voltage is to be connected to the Vlogic input.

TFDU8108
Very Fast Infrared Transceiver Module (VFIR, 16 Mbit/s)

IrDA Serial Interface Compatible
2.7 V to 5.5 V Supply Voltage Range
Description
The TFDU8108 transceiver is part of a family of low
power consumption infrared transceiver modules. It is
compliant to the IrDA physical layer standard for VFIR
infrared data communication, supporting IrDA speeds
up to 16 Mbit/s (VFIR) and carrier based remote control modes up to 2 MHz. Integrated within the transceiver module are a PIN photodiode, an infrared emitter (IRED), and a low-power control IC.
At a minimum, a Vcc bypass capacitor is the only
external component required implementing a complete solution. For limiting the transceivers internal
power dissipation one additional resistor might be
necessary. The transceiver can be operated with
logic I/O voltages as low as 1.8 V.

The data lines are multiplexed with the transmitter
and receiver signals and separate clocks are used
since the transceivers respond to the same address.
When no infrared communication is in progress and
the serial bus is idle, the IRTX line is kept low and
IRRX is kept high.

Figure 15. Infrared Dongle with Differential Signaling
Functional description
The serial interface is designed to interconnect two or
more devices. One of the devices is always in control
of the serial interface and is responsible for starting
every transaction. This device functions as the bus
master and is always the infrared controller. The infrared transceivers act as bus slaves and only respond
to transactions initiated by the master. A bus transaction is made up of one or two phases. The first phase
is the Command Phase and is present in every transaction. The second phase is the Response Phase
and is present only in those transactions in which data
must be returned from the slave. If the operation
involves a data transfer from the slave, there will be a
Response Phase following the Command Phase in
which the slave will output the data.
The Response Phase, if present, must begin 4 clock
cycles after the last bit of the Command Phase, as
shown in figures 9 and 10, otherwise it is assumed
that there will be no response phase and the master
can terminate the transaction.

Rev. 1.7, 19-Jan-06
The SCLK line is always driven by the master and is

used to clock the data being written to or read from
the slave.
This line is driven by a totem-pole output buffer. The
SCLK line is always stopped when the serial interface
is idle to minimize power consumption and to avoid
any interference with the analog circuitry inside the
slave. There are no gaps between the bytes in either
the Command or Response Phase. Data is always
transferred in Little Endian order (least significant bit
first). Input data is sampled on the rising edge of
SCLK. IRTX/SWDAT output data from the controller
is clocked by SCLK falling edge. IRRX/SRDAT output
data from the slave is clocked by SCLK rising edge.
Each byte of data in both Command and Response
Phases is preceded by one start bit. The data to be
written to the slave is carried on the IRTX/SWDAT
line. When the control interface is idle, this line carries
the infrared data signal used to drive the transmitter
LED. When the first low-to-high transition on SCLK is
detected at the beginning of the command sequence,
the slave will disable the transmitter LED. When the
first low-to-high transition on SCLK is detected at the
beginning of the command sequence, the slave will
disable the transmitter LED. The infrared controller
then outputs the command string on the IRTX/
SWDAT line. On the last SCLK cycle of the command
sequence the slave re-enables the transmitter LED
and normal infrared transmission can resume. No
transition on SCLK must occur until the next command sequence otherwise the slave will disable the
transmitter LED again. Read data is carried on the
IRRX/SRDAT line. The slave disables the internal signal from the receiver photo diode during the response
phase of a read transaction. The addressed slave will
output the read data on the IRRX/SRDAT line regardless of the setting of the Receiver Output Enable bit in
the main control register (main-ctrl-0). Non addressed
slaves will tri-state the IRRX/SRDAT line. When the
transceiver is powered up, the IRTX/SWDAT line
should be kept low and SCLK should be cycled at
least 30 times by the infrared controller before the first
command is issued on the IRTX/SWDAT line, see figure 11. This guarantees that the transceiver interface
circuitry will properly initialize and be ready to receive
commands from the controller. In case of a multiple
transceiver configuration, only one transceiver should
have the receiver output enabled.
www.vishay.com

TFDU8108
A series resistor (approx. 200 :) should be placed on
the receiver output from each transceiver to prevent
large currents in case a conflict occurs due to a programming error.
Note: Generally the abbreviations IRTX/IRRX and TXD/RXD are
used for the data transmission lines for the optical communication.
IRTX/IRRX is mostly used at the controller, TXD/RXD at the transceiver

Serial Interface Capability of the Vishay

IrDA Transceivers
Abstract
A serial interface allows an infrared controller to communicate with one or more infrared transceivers. The
basic specification of the IrDA specified interface is
described in "Serial Interface for Transceiver Control,
v 1.0a", IrDA.
This part of the document describes the capabilities of
the serial interface implemented in the Vishay IrDA
transceivers TFDU8108. The VFIR (16 Mbit/s) device
TFDU8108 and the FIR device TFDU6108 (4 Mbit/s)
are using the same interface specification (with specific identification and programming).
IrDA Serial Interface Basics

The "Serial Interface for Transceiver Control" is a
master/slave synchronous serial bus, which uses the
TXD and RXD as data lines and the SCLK as clock
line with a minimum period of 250 ns. The transceiver
works always as slave and jumps into a control mode
on the first rising edge of the clock line remaining
there until the command phase is finished. After
power-on, it is required to initialize the transceiver by
at least 30 clock cycles of SCLK with TXD continuously low before starting programming.
If TXD gets active (high) during the initialization period
the initialization must be repeated.
A data word consists of one byte preceded by one

start bit.
The specified serial interface allows the communication between infrared controller and transceiver
through write and read transactions. In two register
blocks with different functions all data is stored for
operating the interface. The Main Control Registers
allow write and read transactions and here the executable configuration of the device is stored. The
Extended Indexed Registers contain the description
of the supported functionality of the device and can be
read only.
Power-on
After power on the transceiver is in the default mode
shown in table B1.
Addressing
The transceiver is addressable by three address bits.
There are individual and common addresses with the
values shown in table B2.
Registers Data Depth

In general data registers use a data depth of eight
bits. Sometimes it is not necessary to implement the
full depth. In such cases the invisible bits are considered as a zero.
Registers
The register content is listed in the tables B4 to B7.
Data Acknowledgment
Data acknowledgement generated by the slave is
available if the APEN bit is set to 1 in the common
control register, see the "main_ctrl_0" register values
table B4. In IrDA default state this functionality is disabled. It is recommended to enable this function.

Table B7: Reading Extended Indexed Registers

Note: Read Data with Extended Index E_INDX is one of the Extended Indexed Registers. It must be addressed via a precursor of writing
all 1s into the normal index location, thus INDEX[3:0] = Fh. It is an 8 bit address value, which must be followed by 3 SCLK cycles plus a
start clock before reading the DATA value. As in the normal Read Transaction, the input signal, TXD, must be set one clock cycle on LOW
(master ready to receive) and then on HIGH for the next 3 SCLKs and continuing through the entire Response Phase. The corresponding
reaction of the RXD line and the 8 bit DATA value is then read out as depicted below, noting that the Read Data value comes after the 3
SCLK cycles.

Invalid Commands Handling
Reset
Commands and register addresses, which cannot be

encoded by the Serial Interface, are ignored by the
internal logic as invalid data. Below the different types
invalid command handling and the slave reaction is
shown.
Two ways to set the serial interface into a defined

state are available: The brute force method is to
switch the power off and on and let the device recover
in the default state. The software method is to set the
IRTX/SWDAT line low for t 30 clock cycles of the
clock line. If this line is detected as low for t 30 clock
cycles the transceiver is set into the command start
state and all registers are set to the as default implemented values.

Appendix C
SCLK
Serial Interface Programming Guide

The serial interface port of TFDU8108 enables an
interface controller to communicate using a standardized protocol, recall module ID and capability information, and implement receiver bandwidth mode switching, LED power control, shutdown and some other
functions.
This interface requires three signal lines: a clock line
(SCLK) that is used for timing, and two unidirectional
lines multiplexed with the transmitter (TXD, write) and
receiver (RXD, read) signal lines.
Programming sequence formats supported are
one-byte special commands
two-byte write commands
two-byte read commands
three-byte read commands
One-byte special command sequences are reserved
for time-critical actions, while the two-byte write command is predominantly used to set basic transceiver
characteristics. More information can be found in the
IrDA document "Serial Interface for Transceiver Control, v 1.0a" on http://www.IrDA.org.
Serial Interface Timing Specifications

In general, serial interface programming sequences
are similar to any clocked-data protocol:
there is a range of acceptable clock rates, measured from rising edge to rising edge
there is a minimum data setup time before clock
rising edges
there is a minimum data hold time after clock rising
edges
Recommended programming timing:
fSCLK < 8 MHz (according to the Serial Interface
Standard, quasi-static programming is possible)
TSCLK > 125 ns,
Tsetup > 10 ns,
Thold > 10 ns
The timing diagrams, see figure 22, show the setup
and hold time for the serial interface programming
sequences.
TX
125 ns < Tclk
18496
Tsetup > 10 ns
Thold > 10 ns
Figure 22. Programming Sequence
Protocol Specifications
The serial interface protocol is a command-based
communication standard and allows for the communication between controller and transceiver by way of
serial programming sequences on the clock (SCLK),
transmit (TXD), and receive (RXD) lines. The SCLK
line is used as a clocking signal and the transmit/
receive lines are used to write/read data information.
The protocol requires all transceivers to implement
the write commands, but does not require the readportion of the protocol to be implemented (though all
transceivers must at least follow the various commands, even if they perform no internal action as a
result). This serial interface follows but does not support all read/ write commands or extended commands, supporting only the special commands and
basic write/read commands. Write commands to the
transceiver take place on the SCLK and TXD lines
and may use the RXD line for acknowledgment. A
command may be directed to a single transceiver on
the SCLK, TXD and RXD bus by specifying a unique
three-bit transceiver address, or a command may be
directed to all transceivers on the bus by way of a special three-bit broadcast address code. The Vishay
VFIR transceiver TFDU8108 will respond to transceiver address 010 and the broadcast address 111
only; it ignores all other transceiver addresses.
All commands have a common "header" or series of
leading bits, which take the form shown below.

The bits shown are placed on the TXD (DATA) line

and clocked into the transceiver using the rising edge
of the SCLK signal. Only the data bits are shown as it
is assumed that a clock is always present, and that
the transceiver samples the data on the rising edge of
each clock pulse.
Note: as illustrated in the diagram above, the protocol uses "Little
Endian" ordering of bits, so that the LSB is sent first, and the MSB
is sent last for register addresses, transceiver addresses, and read/
write data bytes. The notation that follows presents all addresses
and data in LSB-to-MSB order (bits 0, 1, 2, 3, ... 7) unless otherwise
stated.

Two-byte Write Commands

Two-byte write commands are used for setting the
contents of transceiver registers which control transceiver such as shutdown/enable, receiver mode, LED
power level, etc. The register space requires four register address bits (INDEX), although three codes are
used for controlling the transceiver (see above). The
1111 escape code is for extended commands. The 3bit transceiver address (ADDR) is for selecting the
destination, e.g. 010 to TFDU8108 and 001 to
TFDU6108. The second byte is data field (DATA) for
setting the characteristics of the transceiver module,
e.g. SIR mode (00) or VFIR (05) when the register
address is 0001.
The basic two-byte write command is illustrated

TOIM4232
SIR Endec for IrDA Applications

Integrated Interface Circuit
Description
The TOIM4232 Endec IC provides proper pulse shaping for the SIR IrDA front end infrared transceivers
as of the 4000-series. For transmitting the TOIM4232
shortens the RS232 output signal to IrDA compatible
electrical pulses to drive the infrared transmitter. In
the receive mode, the TOIM4232 stretches the
received infrared pulses to the proper bit width
depending on the operating bit rate. The IrDA bit rate
varies from 2.4 kbit/s to 115.2 kbit/s.The TOIM4232 is
using a crystal clock 3.6864 MHz for its pulse stretching and shortening. The clock can be generated by
the internal oscillator. An external clock can be used,
too. The TOIM4232 is programmable to operate from
1200 bit/s to 115.2 kbit/s by the communication software through the RS232 port. The output pulses are
software programmable as either 1.627 s or 3/16 of
bit time. The typical power consumption is very low
with about 10 mW in operational state and in the order
of a few microwatts in standby mode.

Description
RESET
Resets all internal registers. Initially must be HIGH ("1") to reset internal
registers. When HIGH, the TOIM4232 sets the IrDA default bit rate of
9600 bit/s, sets pulse width to 1.627 s. The VCC_SD output is simply an
inverted reset signal which allows to shut down of a TFDx4x00 transceiver
when applying the reset signal to the TOIM4232. When using devices with
external SD like TFDU4203, the reset line can be used directly as shut
down signal. RESET pin can be controlled by either the RTS or DTR line
through RS232 level converter. Minimum hold time for resetting is 1 s.
Disables the oscillator when active.
I/O
Active
BR/ D
Baud Rate control/ Data.

BR/ D = 0, data communication mode:
RS232 TXD data line is connected (via a level shifter) to TD_232 input pin.
The TXD - signal is appropriately shortened and applied to the output
TD_IR, driving the TXD input of the IR transceiver. The RXD line of the
transceiver is connected to the RD_IR input. This signal is stretched to the
correct bit length according to the programmed bit rate and is routed to the
RS232 RXD line at the RD_232 pin.
BR/ D = 1, Programming mode:
Data received from the RS232 port is interpreted as Control Word. The
Control Word programs the baud rate width will be effective as soon as
BR/ D return to LOW.
RD_232
Received signal data output of stretched signal to the RS232 RXD line
(using level converter).
HIGH
TD_232
Input of the signal to be transmitted from the RS232 port TXD line (passing
the level converter).
HIGH
VCC_SD
Outputs an inverted RESET signal. Can be used to shut down the power
supply of a 4000 series transceiver (e.g., TFDU4100). VCC shutdown

*) Crystal should be connected as shown in figure 2. In addition connect a 100 k: resistor from Pin 6 to Pin 7 and from Pin 6 and Pin 7 a
22 pF capacitor to ground, respectively. When an external clock is available connect it to Pin 6 leaving Pin 7 open. The external resistor
of 100 k: is used to accelerate the start of oscillation after reset or power - on. The value depends on the "Q" of the resonator. With low
Q resonators it is not necessary. The start - up time of the oscillator is between 30 s (with piezo resonators) and above 2 ms with high Q
quartzes.
**) All Vishay Semiconductor SIR transceivers fulfill this condition

TOIM4232
Operation Description
Figure 2 shows a typical example of an RS232 port
interface. The TOIM4232 connects to an RS232 level
converter on one side, and an infrared transceiver on
the other. The internal TOIM4232 baud rate generator
can be software controlled.
When BR/D = 0, the TOIM4232 interprets the channels TD_232 to TD_IR and RD_IR to RD_232 as data
channels.
On the other hand, whenever BR/D = 1, the
TOIM4232 interprets TD_232 as Control Word for
setting the Baud rate. The Baud rate can be programmed to operate from 1200 bit/s to 115.2 kbit/s.
As RS232 level converter, EIA232 or MAX232 or
equivalent are recommended.
When using the TOIM4232 directly connected to an
UART it is compatible to 5 V TTL and 3.3 V CMOS
logic.
Typical external resistors and capacitors are needed
as shown in the TFDx4xxx references.
The output pulse duration can also be programmed,
see chapter "Operation Description". It is strongly recommended using 1.627 s output pulses to save battery power. As frequency determining component a
Vishay XT49M Crystal is recommended, when no
external clock is available.
We strongly recommend not to use this 3/16 mode
because 3/16 pulse length at lower bit rates consumes more power than the shorter pulse. At a
data rate of 9600 bit/s, the ratio of power consumption of both modes is a factor of 12 (!).

Example:
To set TOIM4232 at COM2 port (2F8) to 9600 bit/s
with 3/16 bit time pulse duration send to the
TOIM4232 in programming mode in e.g. "Basic"
OUT &H2F8, (&H6)
For same port, 9600 bit/s and 1.627 s pulse duration
send
OUT &H2F8, (&H16)
For additionally activating S1 send
OUT &H2F8, (&H36)

Programming the TOIM4232

For correct, data rate dependent timing the
TOIM4232 is using a built-in baud rate generator.
This is used when no external clock is not available as
in RS232 IR-dongle applications. For programming
the BR/D pin has to be set active, BR/D = 1.
In this case the TOIM4232 interprets the 7 LSBs at
the TD_232 input as a Control Word. The operating
baud rate will change to its supposedly new baud rate
when the BR/D returns back to LOW ("0") Set the
UART to 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit.

TOIM4232
Software for the TOIM4232
UART Programming
For proper operation, the RS232 must be programmed (using 8 bit, 1 stop, no parity) to send a two character control word, YZ. The control
word YZ is composed of two characters, written in hexadecimal, in format: YZ. The transfer rate for programming must be identical with
the formerly programmed data rate, or after resetting the TOIM4232, the default rate of 9600 bit/s is used.

With BR/D = 0, TOIM4232 is in the data

communication mode. Both RESET
and BR/D must be kept LOW ("0")
during data transmission.
Reprogramming to a new data rate can
be resumed by restarting from step 3.
The UART itself also must set to the
correct data rate *).
