Product Overview
The XL-IRM0038C-38B is a XINGLIGHT infrared remote receiver module classified in the LED category. Its construction is an SMD epoxy resin semi-circular spherical package with a 5.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 mm body and 3.1 mm lead length, with package dimensions listed as 5.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 x 3.1 mm and dimensional tolerance of ±0.25 mm unless otherwise specified.
Electrical operation is centered on a 37.9 kHz typical carrier frequency and 6 kHz typical band-pass filter width. Recommended supply voltage is 2.7 V minimum to 5.5 V maximum, while the absolute maximum supply voltage is 6.0 V at 25°C. Output is TTL and CMOS compatible with active-low behavior, with low-level output voltage up to 250 mV at 2.0 mA sink current and high-level output voltage from 4.5 V to 5.0 V at VCC=5 V.
Assembly guidance includes 240°C for 6 s maximum reflow, up to two reflow cycles, 260°C for 6 s wave soldering, and 300°C for 3 s manual soldering. The device supports infrared remote receiver applications using the stated distance, pulse timing, storage, cleaning, ESD, and reliability conditions.

Procurement Notes
When requesting a quote for XL-IRM0038C-38B, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.
If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.
For LED and optoelectronic sourcing, brightness bin, wavelength or color temperature bin, forward voltage range, viewing angle, moisture sensitivity level and soldering process limits may affect final selection, availability and lead time.
