Very Fast Infrared Transceiver Module (VFIR, 16 Mbit/s), Serial
Interface Compatible, 2.7 V to 5.5 V Supply Voltage Range
Description
The TFDU8108 transceiver is part of a family of lowpower consumption infrared transceiver modules
compliant to the IrDA physical layer standard for VFIR
infrared data communication, supporting IrDA speeds
up to 16 Mbit/s (VFIR) and carrier based remote control modes up to 2 MHz. Integrated within the transceiver module are a PIN photodiode, an infrared
emitter (IRED), and a low-power BiCMOS control IC
to provide a total front-end solution in a single package.
Vishay Semiconductors VFIR transceivers are available in the BabyFace package. This provides flexibility for a variety of applications and space constraints.
The transceivers are capable of directly interfacing
with a wide variety of I/O devices, which perform the
modulation/ demodulation function. At a minimum, a
V
bypass capacitor is the only external component
CC
required implementing a complete solution. For limiting the transceiver internal power dissipation one
additional resistor might be necessary. The transceiver can be operated with logic I/O voltages as low
as 1.5 V. The functionality of the device is equivalent
to the TFDU6108 with the VFIR functionality added.
The IRED current is programmable to different levels,
no external current limiting resistor is necessary.

Vishay Semiconductors transceivers integrate a sensitive receiver and a built-in power driver. The combination of both needs a careful circuit board layout.
The use of thin, long, resistive and inductive wiring
should be avoided. The inputs (Txd, SCLK) and the
output Rxd should be directly (DC) coupled to the I/O
circuit.

keep the IRED anode voltage below 4 V for using the
full temperature range. For device and eye protection
the pulse duration and current are internally limited.
R2, C1 and C2 are optional and dependent on the
quality of the supply voltage V
An unstable power supply with dropping voltage during transmission may reduce sensitivity (and transmission range) of the transceiver.
The placement of these parts is critical. It is strongly
recommended to position C2 close to the transceiver
power supply pins. An electrolytic capacitor should be
used for C1 while a ceramic capacitor is used for C2.

Functional description
The serial interface is designed to interconnect two or
more devices. One of the devices is always in control
of the serial interface and is responsible for starting
every transaction. This device functions as the bus
master and is always the infrared controller. The infrared transceivers act as bus slaves and only respond
to transactions initiated by the master. A bus transaction is made up of one or two phases. The first phase
is the Command Phase and is present in every transaction. The second phase is the Response Phase
and is present only in those transactions in which data
must be returned from the slave. If the operation
involves a data transfer from the slave, there will be a
Response Phase following the Command Phase in
which the slave will output the data.
The Response Phase, if present, must begin 4 clock
cycles after the last bit of the Command Phase, as
shown in figures 1 - 7 and 1 - 8, otherwise it is
assumed that there will be no response phase and the
master can terminate the transaction.
The SCLK line is always driven by the master and is
used to clock the data being written to or read from
the slave.
This line is driven by a totem-pole output buffer. The
SCLK line is always stopped when the serial interface
is idle to minimize power consumption and to avoid
any interference with the analog circuitry inside the
slave. There are no gaps between the bytes in either
the Command or Response Phase. Data is always
transferred in Little Endian order (least significant bit
first). Input data is sampled on the rising edge of
SCLK. IRTX/SWDAT output data from the controller
is clocked by SCLK falling edge. IRRX/SRDAT output
data from the slave is clocked by SCLK rising edge.
Each byte of data in both Command and Response
Phases is preceded by one start bit. The data to be
written to the slave is carried on the IRTX/SWDAT
line. When the control interface is idle, this line carries
the infrared data signal used to drive the transmitter
LED. When the first low-to-high transition on SCLK is
detected at the beginning of the command sequence,
the slave will disable the transmitter LED. The infrared
controller then outputs the command string on the
IRTX/SWDAT line. On the last SCLK cycle of the
command sequence the slave re-enables the transmitter LED and normal infrared transmission can
resume. No transition on SCLK must occur until the
next command sequence otherwise the slave will disable the transmitter LED again. Read data is carried
on the IRRX/SRDAT line. The slave disables the
internal signal from the receiver photo diode during
the response phase of a read transaction. The
addressed slave will output the read data on the
IRRX/SRDAT line regardless of the setting of the
Receiver Output Enable bit in the Mode Selection register 0. Non addressed slaves will tri-state the IRRX/
SRDAT line. When the transceiver is powered up, the
IRTX/SWDAT line should be kept low and SCLK
should be cycled at least 30 times by the infrared controller before the first command is issued on the IRTX/
SWDAT line. This guarantees that the transceiver
interface circuitry will properly initialize and be ready
to receive commands from the controller. In case of a
multiple transceiver configuration, only one transceiver should have the receiver output enabled. A
series resistor (approx. 200 ohms) should be placed
on the receiver output from each transceiver to prevent large currents in case a conflict occurs due to a
programming error.

Note 2: During a read transaction the infrared controller sets the

the transaction. It is strongly recommended that optical transceiv-
ers monitor this line instead of counting clock cycles in order to
detect the end of the read trans action. This will always guarantee
correct operation in case two or more transceivers from different
manufacturers are sharing the serial interface.

In the following some guideline is given for handling
the TFDU8108 in an application ambient, especially
for testing. It is also a guideline for interfacing with a
controller. We recommend to use for first evaluation
the Vishay IRM1802 controller. For more information
see the special data sheet. Driver software is available on request. Contact irdc@vishay.com.
Serial Interface Capability of the Vishay
IrDA Transceivers
Abstract
A serial interface allows an infrared controller to communicate with one or more infrared transceivers. The
basic specification of IrDA) specified interface is
described in "Serial Interface for Transceiver Control,
v 1.0a", IrDA.
This part of the document describes the capabilities of
the serial interface implemented in the Vishay IrDA
transceivers TFDU8108 and TFDU6108. The VFIR
(16 Mbit/s) and FIR (4 Mbit/s) programmable versions
are using the same interface specification. (with specific identification and programming).
IrDA Serial Interface Basics
The serial interface for transceiver control (SITC) is a
master/slave synchronous serial bus which uses the
Txd and Rxd as data lines and the SCLK as clock line
with a minimum period of 250 ns. The transceiver
works always as slave and jump into SITC mode on
the first rising edge of the clock line remaining there
until the command phase is finished. After power on it
is required an initial phase for ≥ 30 clock cycles at Txd
is continuous low before the transmitter can be programmed. If Txd assume high during the initial phase
then must start the initial phase again.
The data transfer is organized by one byte preceded
by one start bit. The SITC allows the communication
between infrared controller and transceiver through
write and read transaction. The SITC consists of two
store blocks with different functions. The store block
called Extended Indexed Registers contain the various supported functionality of the device and can be
read only. The other Main Control Registers allow
write and read transaction and store the executable
configuration of the device.
Any configuration is executed after the command
phase is completed.

After power on the transceiver is to stay by definition in the default mode shown in the table.

is disabled. In default state of the TFDU8108 it is
enabled (see above). It is strongly recommended that
this functionality is enabled to be on the safe side for
correct data transmission during SITC mode.

Registers Data Depth
In general the whole data registers consist of a data
depth of eight bits. But sometimes it is unnecessary to
implement the full depth. In such a case the invisible
bits consider like a zero.

Invalid Commands Handling
There are some commands and register addresses, which cannot be decoded by the SITC. The slave ignores such invalid data for the
internal logic. Below the different types and the slave reaction to them are shown.

Reset
There is no external reset pin at Vishay IrDA transceivers. In case of transition error there are two ways
to set the SITC in a defined state: The first one is
power off. The second one is that the transceiver
monitors the IRTX/SWDAT line in any state. If this line
is assumed low for ≥ 30 clock cycles then the trans-
ceiver must be set to the command start state and set
all registers to default implemented values.

Serial Interface (SIF) Programming Guide
The SIF port of this module allow an IR controller to
communicate with it, get module ID and capability
information, implement receiver bandwidth mode
switching, LED power control, shutdown and some
other functions.
This interface requires three signals: a clock line
(SCLK) that is used for timing, and two unidirectional
lines multiplexed with the transmitter (Txd, write) and
receiver (Rxd, read) infrared signal lines.
The supported programming sequence formats are
listed below:
one-byte special commands
two-byte write commands
two-byte read commands
three-byte read commands
The one-byte special command sequences are
reserved for time-critical actions, while the two-byte
write command is predominantly used to set basic
transceiver characteristics. More information can be
found in the IrDA document "Serial Interface for
Transceiver Control, v 1.0a" on IrDA.org web site.
Serial Interface Timing Specifications
In general, serial interface programming sequences
are similar to any clocked-data protocol:
• there is a range of acceptable clock rates, measured from rising edge to rising edge
• there is a minimum data setup time before clock rising edges
• there is a minimum data hold time after clock rising
edges
Recommended programming timing:
(4 kHz <) fclk < 8 MHz (4 kHz is a recommended
value, according to the Serial Interface Standard
quasi-static programming is possible)
TCLK > 125 ns (< 250 µs, see the remark for quasistatic programming above)
Tsetup > 10 ns
Thold > 10 ns
The timing diagrams below show the setup and hold
time for Serial Interface programming sequences:

Protocol Specifications
The serial interface protocol is a command-based
communication standard and allows for the communication between controller and transceiver by way of
serial programming sequences on the clock (SCLK),
transmit (TX), and receive (RX) lines. The SCLK line
is used as a clocking signal and the transmit/receive
lines are used to write/read data information. The protocol requires all transceivers to implement the write
commands, but does not require the read-portion of
the protocol to be implemented (though all transceivers must at least follow the various commands, even
if they perform no internal action as a result). This
serial interface follows but does not support all read/
write commands or extended commands, supporting
only the special commands and basic write/read commands.
Write commands to the transceiver take place on the
SCLK and TX lines and may make use of the RX line
for answer back purposes.
A command may be directed to a single transceiver
on the SCLK, TX and RX bus by specifying a unique
three-bit transceiver address, or a command may be
directed to all transceivers on the bus by way of a special three-bit broadcast address code. The Vishay
VFIR transceiver TFDU8108 will respond to transceiver address 010 and the broadcast address 111
only, and follows but ignores all other transceiver
addresses. The transceiver address of Vishay FIR
module TFDU6108 is 001.
All commands have a common \"header\" or series of
leading bits which take the form shown below.

TFDU8108
Vishay Semiconductors
The bits shown are placed on the TX (DATA) line and
clocked into the transceiver using the rising edge of
the SCLK signal. Only the data bits are shown as it is
assumed that a clock is always present, and that the
transceiver samples the data on the rising edge of
each clock pulse.
Note: as illustrated in the diagram above, the protocol
uses "Little Endian" ordering of bits, so that the LSB is
sent first, and the MSB is sent last for register
addresses, transceiver addresses, and read/write
data bytes. The notation that follows presents all
addresses and data in LSB-to-MSB order (bits 0, 1, 2,
3, ... 7) unless otherwise stated.

One-byte Special Commands
One-byte special commands are used for time-critical
transceiver commands, such as full transceiver reset.
A total of six special commands are possible,

Two-byte Write Commands
Two-byte write commands are used for setting the
contents of transceiver registers which control transceiver such as shutdown/enable, receiver mode, LED
power level, etc.
The register space requires four register address bits
(R0-3), although three codes are used for controlling
transceiver (see above), and the 1111 escape code is
for extended commands. The 3-bit transceiver
address (A0-3) is for selecting the destination, e.g.
010 to TFDU8108 and 001 to TFDU6108.
The second byte is data field (D0-7) for setting the
characteristics of the transceiver module, e.g. SIR
mode (00) or VFIR (05) when the register address is
0001.

Some important serial interface programming
sequences are shown below:
1. Meet all present and future national and international statutory requirements.
2. Regularly and continuously improve the performance of our products, processes, distribution and
operatingsystems with respect to their impact on the health and safety of our employees and the public, as
well as their impact on the environment.
It is particular concern to control or eliminate releases of those substances into the atmosphere which are
known as ozone depleting substances (ODSs).
The Montreal Protocol (1987) and its London Amendments (1990) intend to severely restrict the use of ODSs
and forbid their use within the next ten years. Various national and international initiatives are pressing for an
earlier ban on these substances.
Vishay Semiconductor GmbH has been able to use its policy of continuous improvements to eliminate the use
of ODSs listed in the following documents.
1. Annex A, B and list of transitional substances of the Montreal Protocol and the London Amendments
respectively
2. Class I and II ozone depleting substances in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) in the USA
3. Council Decision 88/540/EEC and 91/690/EEC Annex A, B and C (transitional substances) respectively.
Vishay Semiconductor GmbH can certify that our semiconductors are not manufactured with ozone depleting
substances and do not contain such substances.
We reserve the right to make changes to improve technical design
and may do so without further notice.
Parameters can vary in different applications. All operating parameters must be validated for each
customer application by the customer. Should the buyer use Vishay Semiconductors products for any
unintended or unauthorized application, the buyer shall indemnify Vishay Semiconductors against all
claims, costs, damages, and expenses, arising out of, directly or indirectly, any claim of personal
