Test Method:
The specified electro-optical characteristics is satisfied under the following
Conditions at the controllable distance.
cMeasurement place
A place that is nothing of extreme light reflected in the room.
dExternal light
Project the light of ordinary white fluorescent lamps which are not high
Frequency lamps and must be less then 10 Lux at the module surface.
(Ee≦10Lux)
eStandard transmitter
A transmitter whose output is so adjusted as to Vo=400mVp-p and the output
Wave form shown in Fig.-1.According to the measurement method shown in
Fig.-2 the standard transmitter is specified.
However, the infrared photodiode to be used for the transmitter should be
λp=940nm, ∆λ=50nm. Regarding photo diode, sensitivity S=26nA/Lx
in case light source temperature 2856°K, Ee=100Lx, Vr=5V.

The Notice of Application:
Transmission of remote control signal consist of four parts: Encode Part, IR Transmitter
Source, IRM device, Decode Part
1. When IRM-36XXG code select frequency, it need to well understand the center system
of encode part.
2. Strong or weak light of IR Transmitter can affect distance of transmission.
3. When using IRM-36XXG device, it requires the composition of code pattern to reach the
demand as follows:
Minimum Burst length
(Tburst)
Minimum Gap Time
(Tgap)
Minimum data
pause time
(Tpause)
300 µs
300 µs
23 ms
4. It needs to ensure the translation range of decode part if it is applied to the pulse-width
range.
If the above items hardly assure of its application, it’ll cause NG (no good) message
from the edge of signal.
