HSDL-3220 IrDA® Data Compliant Low Power 4.0 Mbit/s Infrared Transceiver Data Sheet Description The HSDL-3220 is a new generation low profile high speed infrared transceiver module that provides interface between logic and IR signals for throughair, serial, half-duplex IR data-link. The module is fully compliant to IrDA Physical Layer specification version 1.4 low power from 9.6kbit/s to 4.0 Mbit/s (FIR) and is IEC825-Class 1 Eye Safe. The HSDL-3220 can be shutdown completely to achieve very low power consumption. In the shutdown mode, the PIN diode will be inactive and thus producing very little photocurrent even under very bright ambient light. It is also designed to interface to input/ output logic circuits as low as 1.8V. These features are ideal for mobile devices that require low power consumption.

The temperature profile is divided into four process zones, each with different ∆T/∆time temperature change rates. The ∆T/∆time rates are detailed in the above table. The temperatures are measured at the component to printed circuit board connections. In process zone P1, the PC board and HSDL-3220 castellation pins are heated to a temperature of 160°C to activate the flux in the solder paste. The temperature ramp up rate, R1, is limited to 4°C per second to allow for even heating of both the PC board and HSDL-3220 castellations. 10 Process zone P2 should be of sufficient time duration (60 to 120 seconds) to dry the solder paste. The temperature is raised to a level just below the liquidus point of the solder, usually 200° C (392° F). Process zone P3 is the solder reflow zone. In zone P3, the temperature is quickly raised above the liquidus point of solder to 255° C (491° F) for optimum results. The dwell time above the liquidus point of solder should be between 20 and 60 seconds. It usually takes about 20 seconds to assure proper coalescing of the solder balls into liquid solder and the formation of good solder connections. Beyond a dwell time of 60 seconds, the intermetallic growth within the solder connections becomes excessive, resulting in the formation of weak and unreliable connections. The temperature is then rapidly reduced to a point below the solidus temperature of the solder, usually 200° C (392° F), to allow the solder within the connections to freeze solid. Process zone P4 is the cool down after solder freeze. The cool down rate, R5, from the liquidus point of the solder to 25° C (77° F) should not exceed 6° C per second maximum. This limitation is necessary to allow the PC board and HSDL-3220 castellations to change dimensions evenly, putting minimal stresses on the HSDL-3220 transceiver.

Appendix B: PCB Layout Suggestion The following PCB layout guidelines should be followed to obtain a good PSRR and EM immunity resulting in good electrical performance. Things to note: 4. Preferably a multi-layered board should be used to provide sufficient ground plane. Use the layer underneath and near the transceiver 1. The ground plane should be continuous under the part, but should not extend under the shield trace. TOP LAYER CONNECT THE METAL SHIELD AND MODULE GROUND PIN TO BOTTOM GROUND LAYER. 2. The shield trace is a wide, low inductance trace back to the system ground. CX1, CX2, CX3, and CX4 are optional supply filter capacitors; they may be left out if a clean power supply is used. 3. Vled can be connected to either unfiltered or unregulated power supply. If Vled and Vcc share the same power supply, CX3 need not be used and the connections for CX1 and CX2 should be before the current limiting resistor R1. In a noisy environment, including capacitor CX2 can enhance supply rejection. CX1 is generally a ceramic capacitor of low inductance providing a wide frequency response while CX2 and CX3 are tantalum capacitors of big volume and fast frequency response. The use of a tantalum capacitor is more critical on the Vled line, which carries a high current. CX4 is an optional ceramic capacitor, similar to CX1, for the IOVcc line. LAYER 2 CRITICAL GROUND PLANE ZONE. DO NOT CONNECT DIRECTLY TO THE MODULE GROUND PIN. LAYER 3 KEEP DATA BUS AWAY FROM CRITICAL GROUND PLANE ZONE. BOTTOM LAYER (GND) The area underneath the module at the second layer, and 3 cm in all directions around the module is defined as the critical ground plane zone.

The layout below is based on a 2-layer PCB. Appendix C: General Application Guide for the HSDL-3220 Description The HSDL-3220, a low-cost and small form factor infrared transceiver, is designed to address the mobile computing market such as PDAs, as well as small-embedded mobile products such as digital cameras and cellular phones. It is fully compliant to IrDA 1.4 low power specification from 9.6 kbit/s to 4.0 Mbit/s, and supports HP-SIR and TV Remote modes. The design of the HSDL3220 also includes the following unique features: • Low passive component count. • Shutdown mode for low power consumption requirement. • Interface to input/output logic circuits as low as 1.8V Interface to Recommended I/O chips The HSDL-3220’s TXD data input is buffered to allow for CMOS drive levels. No peaking circuit or capacitor is required. Data rate from 9.6 kbit/s up to 4.0 Mbit/s is available at the RXD pin. The block diagram below shows how the IR port fits into a mobile phone and PDA platform. Selection of Resistor R1 Resistor R1 should be selected to provide the appropriate peak pulse LED current over different ranges of Vcc as shown in the table below.

The link distance testing was done using typical HSDL-3220 units with SMC’s FDC37C669 and FDC37N769 Super I/O controllers. An IR link distance of up to 50 cm was demonstrated for SIR and FIR speeds. 15 HSDL-3220 COM Port Appendix D: Window Designs for HSDL-3220 Optical port dimensions for HSDL-3220 To ensure IrDA compliance, some constraints on the height and width of the window exist. The minimum dimensions ensure that the IrDA cone angles are met without vignetting. The maximum dimensions minimize the effects of stray light. The minimum size corresponds to a cone angle of 30° and the maximum size corresponds to a cone angle of 60° . In the figure below, X is the width of the window, Y is the OPAQUE MATERIAL height of the window and Z is the distance from the HSDL-3220 to the back of the window. The distance from the center of the LED lens to the center of the photodiode lens, K, is 5.1mm. The equations for computing the window dimensions are as follows: X = K + 2*(Z+D)*tanA Y = 2*(Z+D)*tanA The above equations assume that the thickness of the window is negligible compared to the distance of the module from the back of the window (Z). If they are IR TRANSPARENT WINDOW Y X IR TRANSPARENT WINDOW K Z A D Figure 19. Window design diagram. 16 OPAQUE MATERIAL comparable, Z' replaces Z in the above equation. Z' is defined as Z' = Z + t/n where ‘t’ is the thickness of the window and ‘n’ is the refractive index of the window material. The depth of the LED image inside the HSDL-3220, D, is 3.17 mm. ‘A’ is the required half angle for viewing. For IrDA compliance, the minimum is 15° and the maximum is 30° . Assuming the thickness of the window to be negligible, the equations result in the following tables and graphs. Aperture Width (x, mm) Max. Min. Aperture Height (y, mm) Max.

Polycarbonate is recommended. The surface finish of the plastic should be smooth, without any texture. An IR filter dye may be used in the window to make it look black to the eye, but the total optical loss of the window should be 10% or less for best optical performance. Light loss should be measured at 875 nm. The recommended plastic materials for use as a cosmetic window are available from General Electric Plastics. Shape of the Window From an optics standpoint, the window should be flat. This ensures that the window will not alter either the radiation pattern of the LED, or the receive pattern of the photodiode. If the window must be curved for mechanical or industrial design reasons, place the same curve on the back side of the window that has an identical radius as the front side. While this will not completely eliminate the lens effect of the front curved surface, it will significantly reduce the effects. The amount of change in the radiation pattern is dependent upon the material chosen for the window, the radius of the front and back curves, and the distance from the back surface to the transceiver. Once these items are known, a lens design can be made which will eliminate the effect of the front surface curve. The following drawings show the effects of a curved window on the radiation pattern. In all cases, the center thickness of the window is 1.5 mm, the window is made of polycarbonate plastic, and the distance from the transceiver to the back surface of the window is 3 mm.
