.. _cpn_infrared_receiver: Infrared Receiver ========================== .. image:: img/IR1.svg .. image:: img/ebc.png * S: Signal output * +: VCC * -: GND An infrared-receiver is a component which receives infrared signals and can independently receive infrared rays and output signals compatible with TTL level. It is similar with a normal plastic-packaged transistor in size and is suitable for all kinds of infrared remote control and infrared transmission. Infrared, or IR, communication is a popular, low-cost, easy-to-use wireless communication technology. Infrared light has a slightly longer wavelength than visible light, so it is imperceptible to the human eye - ideal for wireless communication. A common modulation scheme for infrared communication is 38KHz modulation. * Adopted HX1838 IR Receiver Sensor, high sensitivity * Can be used for remote control * Power Supply: 3.3~5V * Interface: Digital * Modulate Frequency: 38Khz Remote Control ------------------------- .. image:: img/IR1.svg This is a Mini thin infrared wireless remote control with 21 function buttons and a transmitting distance of up to 8 meters, which is suitable for operating a wide range of devices in a kid's room. * Size: 85x39x6mm * Remote control range: 8-10m * Battery: 3V button type lithium manganese battery * Infrared carrier frequency: 38KHz * Surface paste material: 0.125mm PET * Effective life: more than 20,000 times
