Description
The TSOP18..RF3V – series are miniaturized
receivers for infrared remote control systems. PIN
diode and preamplifier are assembled on lead frame,
the epoxy package is designed as IR filter.
The demodulated output signal can directly be
decoded by a microprocessor. The main benefit is the
reliable function even in disturbed ambient and the
protection against uncontrolled output pulses.

Suitable Data Format
The circuit of the TSOP18..RF3V is designed in that
way that unexpected output pulses due to noise or
disturbance signals are avoided. A bandpassfilter, an
integrator stage and an automatic gain control are
used to suppress such disturbances.
The distinguishing mark between data signal ( not
suppressed) and disturbance signal (supressed) are
carrier frequency, burst length and Signal Gap Time
(see diagram below).

Some examples for suitable data format are:
NEC Code (repetitive pulse), NEC Code (repetitive
data), Toshiba Micom Format, Sharp Code, RC5
Code, RECS–80 Code, R–2000 Code.
When a disturbance signal is applied to the
TSOP18..RF3V it can still receive the data signal.
However the sensitivity is reduced to that level that no
unexpected pulses will occure.
The data signal should fullfill the following condition:
• Carrier frequency should be close to center
Some examples for such disturbance signals which
are suppressed by the TSOP18..RF3V are:
frequency of the bandpass (e.g. 38kHz).
• DC light (e.g. from tungsten bulb or sunlight),
• Burst length should be 6 cycles/burst or longer.
• After each burst a gap time of at least 9 cycles is
neccessary.
• The data format should not make a continuous
• Continuous signal at 38kHz or at any other
frequency,
• Signals from fluorescent lamps (see figure B).

(longer than 25ms) at least each 150ms (see Figure A)
