If the IC malfunctions due to power noise, connect a bypass capacitor. An open-collector output pin (active low) with a pull-up resistor (33 kΩ TYP.)

Power output pin VCC1 3 4 fO Internal circuit power line BPF frequency setting pin 4 fO setting block of BPF Sets the central frequency of the internal bandpass filter by an external resistance (refer to f O vs. R 2 Characteristics in CHARACTERISTIC CURVE).

Trimming resistor 5 GND 6 CD Ground pin GND pin Detection capacitor connection pin Waveform shaping circuit 6 BPF output signal Connect a smoothing capacitor to this pin to obtain a DC voltage corresponding to the output signal level of the internal bandpass filter. The 0.01 µ F is the most suitable value for the external capacitor between pin 6 and GND. In case of reducing this capacitor, confirm that the output pulses from pin 2 have enough width even if the longest burst signal is inputted. 3 µPC2800A Pin No. Symbol Pin Name 7 IN – First-stage gain setting pin Internal Equivalent Circuit 2.5 V 90 kΩ ABLC 7 8 IN + To limiter circuit Signal input pin 8 4 Function Reverse input pin of the first-stage amplifier. Connect a capacitor (0.01 µ F) to prevent direct current so that the firststage amplifier operates as an AC amplifier. The gain of the amplifier can be adjusted by an external resistor (0 to 1 kΩ) (refer to A V vs. R 1 Characteristics in CHARACTERISTIC CURVE). This pin has an internal impedance of 90 kΩ (TYP.) and can be directly connected to a PIN photodiode. Because this is the input pin of a highsensitivity amplifier, exercise care that noise is not superimposed on this pin. Keep the wiring length of the cathode of the PIN photodiode as short as possible. µPC2800A 2. EXAMPLE OF MEASURES TO PREVENT MALFUNCTIONING DUE TO NOISE 2.1 Radiation noise • Keep the wiring length between the PIN photodiode and pin 8 as short as possible. • Keep the signal lines of pins 2 and 6 as far away as possible from those of pins 7 and 8. • Commonly ground the anode of the PIN photodiode and the external capacitor connected to pin 7. Separate the GND and power GND of pin 6 from these. • Cover the entire circuit in a shield case. 2.2 Power noise • Monitor the noise superimposed on pin 3 with an oscilloscope. If high-frequency noise is superimposed, connect a ceramic capacitor of 0.1 µ F or so between pin 3 and GND. If low-frequency noise is superimposed, increase the capaciance of the capacitor between pin 3 and GND. If necessary, connect a capacitor between pin 1 and GND. 2.3 External light disturbance noise • Use a PIN photodiode with an excellent spectral sensitivity. • Use a PIN photodiode with a lens and with a narrow directional angle. 2.4 Noise • Insert an external resistor (R 1: 1 kΩ or less) in series to C 1 between pin 7 and GND to decrease the voltage gain. In this case, however, the distance is shortened and care must be exercised not to decrease the voltage gain too much. 3. NOTICE FOR USE The µ PC2800A is designed for the infrared remote control receivers of audio-visual equipment, air conditioner and so on. Therefore the µ PC2800A may not be suitable for some applications that require accurate pulse widths such as data communications. In case of using the µ PC2800A under the accurate pulse width condition, confirm that the output pulses from pin 2 have enough accuracy in actual environmental changing (refer to the following examples). Example of environmental changing: Operating ambient temperature, supply voltage, external disturbing light, external noise, input burst length, input carrier frequency, strength of input light, direction of input light, distance from transmitter, characteristics of parts (including the µ PC2800A) and so on. 5 µPC2800A 4.

While NEC Corporation has been making continuous effort to enhance the reliability of its semiconductor devices, the possibility of defects cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize risks of damage or injury to persons or property arising from a defect in an NEC semiconductor device, customers must incorporate sufficient safety measures in its design, such as redundancy, fire-containment, and anti-failure features. NEC devices are classified into the following three quality grades: "Standard", "Special", and "Specific". The Specific quality grade applies only to devices developed based on a customer designated "quality assurance program" for a specific application. The recommended applications of a device depend on its quality grade, as indicated below. Customers must check the quality grade of each device before using it in a particular application. Standard: Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment, audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic equipment and industrial robots Special: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed for life support) Specific: Aircrafts, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life support systems or medical equipment for life support, etc. The quality grade of NEC devices is "Standard" unless otherwise specified in NEC's Data Sheets or Data Books. If customers intend to use NEC devices for applications other than those specified for Standard quality grade, they should contact an NEC sales representative in advance. Anti-radioactive design is not implemented in this product. M4 96.5
