THIS DOCUMENT IS FOR MAINTENANCE PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGNS APRIL 1995 3056-1.3 SL490B REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER (Supersedes version in April 1994 Consumer IC Handbook, HB3120 - 2.0) GPS has developed and produced a range of monolithic integrated circuits which give a wide variety of remote control facilities. As well as ultrasonic or infra-red transmission, cable, radio or telephone links may also be used. Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) is used with or without carrier and automatic error detection is incorporated. Initially designed with TV remote control in mind, the device is also suitable for use in radios, tuners, tape and record decks, lamps and lighting, toys and models, industrial control and monitoring. The SL490B is an easily extendable, 32-command PPM transmitter drawing negligible standby current.

The current in the diodes and the infra-red output is controlled by the quantity, type, and connection method of the diodes and also by the gain, at high currents, of the transistors. The most common solution where cost is important is to use two single-chip diodes, such as the CQY99 connected in series. Improved output can be obtained by using four CQY99 diodes in a series/parallel arrangement, but it is usually simpler to use two multi-chip diodes such as the CQX47 connected in parallel or a single CQX19, which gives similar results. A significant increase in range can be obtained by using diodes such as the CQY99 in conjunction with a plated plastic parabolic reflector. When building the transmitter, care should be taken with the choice of the capacitor C4 and with the circuit layout, particularly when multi-chip diodes are being used, as the current pulses can be as high as 6 to 8A. Transistor choice is also important and any substitutes should have high current gain characteristics and switching speeds compatible with the application. An increase in output can be obtained by connecting TR2 in common emitter configuration, but care should be taken not to exceed the rating of the diodes. Choice of PPM Frequency When the transmitter is being used with an infra-red link, with high current pulses fed to the diodes as in Fig. 5, power consumption will increase with frequency. It is thus advisable that, with a battery power supply, the slowest PPM rate consistent with adequate response time should be chosen. 3 SL490B PACKAGE DETAILS Dimensions are shown thus: mm (in) 1 PIN 1 REF NOTCH 7·11 (0·28) MAX 7·62 (0·3) NOM CTRS 18 1·14/1·65 (0·045/0·065) 0·23/0·41 (0·009/0·016) 25·40 (1·000) MAX 5·08/(0·20) MAX SEATING PLANE 0·38/0·61 (0·015/0·24) 0·51 (0·02) 3·05 (0·120) MIN MIN 18 LEADS AT 2·54 (0·10) NOM.
