Product Overview
XL-IRM0038C-38B from XINGLIGHT is a 38 kHz infrared receiver in the LED category. The device uses an SMD epoxy resin semi-circular spherical package with a 5.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 mm body and 3.1 mm pin length. Unless otherwise specified, the outline dimension tolerance is ±0.25 mm.
Electrical operating data includes a recommended supply voltage range of 2.7 to 5.5 V and a typical input frequency of 37.9 kHz. At VDD=5 V and Ta=25°C, working current is specified as 0.3 mA minimum, 0.4 mA typical, and 0.5 mA maximum. The receiver has a 6 kHz typical BPF width, 250 mV maximum low-level output voltage, and 4.5 V minimum to 5.0 V maximum high-level output voltage at VCC=5 V.
Receive distance is specified at 10 m minimum and 15 m typical at 0°, with 5 m minimum and 6 m typical at left or right 35°. Assembly limits include 260°C for ≤6 s wave soldering, 300°C for 3 s manual welding, and a recommended maximum Pb-free reflow temperature of 240°C for 6 s over up to 2 cycles.
