DESCRIPTION
The TSOP48.. series are miniaturized receivers for infrared
remote control systems. A PIN diode and a preamplifier are
assembled on a lead frame, the epoxy package acts as an IR
filter.
The demodulated output signal can directly be decoded by a
microprocessor. The TSOP48.. is the standard IR remote
control receiver series, supporting all major data formats.
This component has not been qualified according to
automotive specifications.

duty cycle. The data signal should be close to the band-pass
center frequency (e.g. 38 kHz) and fulfill the conditions in the
table below.
When a data signal is applied to the TSOP48.. in the
presence of a disturbance signal, the sensitivity of the IR Signal from Fluorescent
receiver is reduced to insure that no spurious pulses are Lamp with Low Modulation
present at the output. Some examples of disturbance signals
which are suppressed are: 0 5 10 15 20
• DC light (e.g. from tungsten bulb or sunlight) 16920 Time (ms)
• Continuous signals at any frequency Fig. 14 - IR Signal from Fluorescent Lamp

• Modulated IR signals from common fluorescent lamps

After each burst of length 10 to 70 cycles
a minimum gap time is required of ≥ 12 cycles
For bursts greater than 70 cycles
a minimum gap time in the data stream is needed of > 4 x burst length
