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.

Notes:
1. Tied through external series resistor, R1, to regulated Vled from 2.7 to 5.5V. Please refer to table
above for recommended series resistor value.
2. Internally connected to LED driver. Leave this pin unconnected.
3. This pin is used to transmit serial data when SD pin is low. If this pin is held high for longer than
50 µs, the LED is turned off. Do NOT float this pin.
4. This pin is capable of driving a standard CMOS or TTL load. No external pull-up or pull-down
resistor is required. The pin is in tri-state when the transceiver is in shutdown mode. The receiver
output echoes transmitted signal.
5. The transceiver is in shutdown mode if this pin is high for more than 400 µs. On falling edge of
this signal, the state of the TXD pin sampled and used to set receiver low bandwidth (TXD=low)
or high bandwidth (TXD=high) mode. Refer to the section ”Bandwidth selection timing” for
programming information. Do NOT float this pin.
6. Regulated, 2.7 to 3.6 Volts.
7. Connect to ASIC logic controller Vcc voltage or supply voltage. The voltage at this pin must be
equal to or less than supply voltage.
8. Connect to system ground.
9. Connect to system ground via a low inductance trace. For best performance, do not connect
directly to the transceiver pin GND.
10. CX1 must be placed within 0.7 cm of the HSDL-3220 to obtain optimum noise immunity.
11. In environments with noisy power supplies, including CX2, as shown in Figure 1, can enhance
supply ripple rejection performance.

The reflow profile is a straightline representation of a nominal
temperature profile for a convective reflow solder process. 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 f lux 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.
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:
1. The ground plane should be
continuous under the part, but
should not extend under the
shield trace.
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.
4. Preferably a multi-layered
board should be used to
provide sufficient ground
plane. Use the layer underneath and near the transceiver
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 ground plane
should be maximized in this
module as Vcc, and sandwich
that layer between ground
connected board layers.
Refer to the diagram below for
an example of a 4 layer board.

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
SPEAKER

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.
• Interface to input/output logic
circuits as low as 1.8V

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

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

Almost any plastic material will

The surface finish of the plastic

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.
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 depen-

for the window, the radius of the
