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.

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 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.
Note: We apologize to use sometimes in our documentation the abbreviation LED and the word Light Emitting Diode instead of Infrared
Emitting Diode (IRED) for IR-emitters. That is by definition wrong; we are here following just a bad trend.
Typical values are for design aid only, not guaranteed nor subject to production testing and may vary with time.

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 Ω 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.

Recommended Circuit Diagram
Operated with a clean low impedance power supply
the TFDU4101 needs no additional external components. However, depending on the entire system
design and board layout, additional components may
be required (see figure 1). That is especially the case
when separate power supplies are used for bench
tests. When using compact wiring and regulated supplies as e. g. in phone applications in most cases no
external components are necessary.

Figure 1. Recommended test circuit.
*) 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.
The capacitor C2 combined with the resistor R2 is the
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.
The placement of these parts is critical. It is strongly
recommended to position C2 as close as possible to
the transceiver power supply pins.
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 µF (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.
For operating at RS232 ports TOIM4232 is recommended as ENDEC.
I/O and Software
In the description, already different I/Os are mentioned. Different combinations are tested and the
function verified with the special drivers available
from the I/O suppliers. In special cases refer to the

Lead (Pb)-Free, Recommended Solder Profile
The TFDU4101 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 5 and 6 are VISHAY's recommended profiles for
use with the TFDU4101 transceivers. For more
details please refer to the application note
“SMD Assembly Instructions”
(http://www.vishay.com/docs/82602/82602.pdf).
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.

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.
We reserve the right to make changes to improve technical design
and may do so without further notice.
Parameters can vary in different applications. All operating parameters must be validated for each
customer application by the customer. Should the buyer use Vishay Semiconductors products for any
unintended or unauthorized application, the buyer shall indemnify Vishay Semiconductors against all
claims, costs, damages, and expenses, arising out of, directly or indirectly, any claim of personal
damage, injury or death associated with such unintended or unauthorized use.
